Family Time

Since going back to work two and a half weeks ago I have already come to realize how important family time is going to be on weekends. During the week we are busy from the moment the alarm goes off at 6am until we put Kallie to bed close to 8pm. I get up extra early during the work week so I can get ready and have time to spend with Kallie each morning before Alexandra arrives. We have morning snuggles, we eat and then we play all before I head out the door at 7:45. I still struggle evey day leaving my little girl but it is that special time we have in the mornings that helps me get through the day.

This weekend we decided to take a family outing to Lincoln Park. It was a beautiful day and I was so excited to show Kallie the swings. I wasn't sure if she would like them but you can see by the pictures below she LOVED IT!! My hope is to do something as a family every weekend. We don't have to go somewhere but I want to make sure we take a step back, slow down and enjoy the moment. This is such a special time in our lives and I want enjoy every minute of it.
