A Peek Into Our Morning Routine

June 10, 2011 By Erika Zane

I have been somewhat quiet online over the past few days.

If you have kept up with me over the past few weeks, you know I was visiting my girlfriends out west May 22nd through the 29th. Within a couple of days of our return, I came down with a pretty resilient cold that hit me hard. I am sure it was also my fault for not giving in and getting enough sleep or eating and drinking the right things.

In any case, I have felt more like myself the last couple of days and have had some chores and errands to catch up on, plus a routine to re-establish. So, I decided it might be fun to give you a glimpse into a pretty typical morning for us at home. I hope you enjoy!

FYI, I’m laughing in the video because Little Man usually throws the ball down the hall. He does not usually run down the hall and then throw the ball into the door. That’s more of a new thing for him.

Also, if you’d like to see a longer video with some more action and “E I E I Oh” singing, check out http://youtu.be/QeG–wiP33U

Radio Silence, Or Something Like That. »

Hello and welcome. It’s been a while. For Lent this year I decided to fast from the thing that took too much of my attention from what is truly important: Social Media. Though there are countless amazing benefits to Social Media, after about a month offline so far, there are seemingly just as many negatives. I never realized how much of my brain had been hijacked by it. I’ve had so many revelations about how much easier it is to move forward when I’m not constantly reminded of the past. But I still want to record my family as they grow at this ridiculous speed and, I’m realizing, so many of our family’s memories are here. Those along with so many of the struggles and stages we’ve worked through. Maybe in the midst of COVID19 isolation and my kids around me so often, I’m brought back to a time when they were too young for school and with me so often. Writing here during that time helped make up for the limited adult conversation in my days and the overwhelm provided by my… little treasures 😉 My husband, fur babies, three fiesty kids, and I hereby extend an invitation to visit this little sneak peak into our life. We’re super flawed and broken and there aren’t too many dull moments around here. And I promise it’s not always as magical as some of my golden hour, sun-soaked images would suggest. There’s usually too much coffee in my system and we welcome all the prayers. Come on over if you want to process with me.
