Life as a Stay-at-Home Mom

I love being a stay-at-home mom. I wouldn't trade this job for any other in the world. I have my days where I just need to get out of the house and take a break from the kids but it really is the best job I could ever ask for. We haven't had a typical February this year. It was in the high 50's for at least a week or so and we just loved it! We were able to play outside and go for walks and bike rides. Atreyu is still nervous riding his Bumblebee bike but he is doing better. Cambria isn't quite tall enough to pedal her "pink bike" by herself but she has fun sitting on it.
We've done a lot inside as well. Any time I bake anything, both kids think they need to help. It takes a bit longer and sometimes makes me a little frustrated but they are learning and love to help.
They've also helped me with some chores lately. They like to help clean the bathroom (probably because of the gloves) and as they were cleaning last time they told me they were The Cleaining Super Hero and The Cleaning Sugar Rush. They really enjoyed themselves and my bathrooms got clean. Double win!
There aren't many things that make me happier than when my kids play together well and make each other laugh. It really is the best thing and brings the spirit into our home. It doesn't happen all the time but I truly cherish the moments when it does.
Cambria has been a little stinker lately and gets out of bed almost every nap and bedtime. She has learned that she will get in trouble and has done a bit better the past few days. She is such a sweet girl with such a big attitude. 
Atreyu is learning so much! He recognizes almost all the letters and he is working on more numbers now. I can't believe he will be starting kindergarten this fall. He still loves super heroes and wants Dad to play with him any chance he gets.
