Whenever it's time for a big change in life, it takes some adjusting to figure out what the "new normal" will look like. Unfortunately, when attempting to find time to fit everything in, my blog is the first thing to take a hiatus. For this, I apologize- consistency has not been the theme around here as I have found myself back at a full time job with (now) 2 kiddos.
But, here I am. Today there is time- so I today I will share with you some of the things I have been making time for.

For those of you who follow my Instagram Stream, you would know that in the knitting portion of my life, I am staying busy on a stocking for Sam. I felt a little motivated after seeing some stockings at a friend's house, so I shot a quick phone picture so I could be inspired by copy what I saw:

We also managed to throw in a celebration for someone's second year of life:

And as Christmas approaches, and we look forward to more time home with family, we continue to find our "new normal"- taking each day as it comes. Some days hold time for running, some for knitting, some just for each other. In all the chaos, we know how blessed we are.
