We are having a very sweet time over here.
Charlotte is one month old, and we’re half way through Eric’s parental leave from work. I’m so grateful we have this time to bond as a family. Life is not without its challenges, obviously, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I’m starting to feel that I might survive parenting two kids once Eric is back at work 😂 I still don’t know how y’all do it, but I’m slowly easing into it. Yesterday I got Clay down for a nap while wearing Charlotte on the carrier which felt like a huge accomplishment.
My body is healing and I’m honoring a slow and steady recovery, but I’m also itching to get back to exercising more and yes, riding my dang horse!
These pictures are from an afternoon trip to the lower Yuba river yesterday, a special place we love to go to be in awe of nature. The picture of the jaw bone is from a chinook salmon. Look at those freaking teeth!
