Anyone who knows me knows how much I love having two kids. I love having brothers, even though Beckett doesn't really "play" with him yet, they love being together. Carson makes Beckett laugh, and Beckett just grins from ear to ear as soon as he catches a glimpse of Carson. I love chaos - so getting both of them their breakfasts, singing crazy songs, cleaning up messes, playing games, jumping on the bed... you name it and we do it. Together.
But, once in a while I crave time with just one of them. Tonight it was Carson night. After I put Beckett to bed, Carson and I ran out of the house to the car and went swimming. We had such a blast. I concentrated 100% on him. We talked, we laughed, we told stories, we sang to the music, we jumped in puddles, we swam, we went down the slide, we played catch, we swirled in circles. It was so nice to be just the two of us.

About Me
- Christy
- Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
- I'm a mom to two adorable boys: Carson and Beckett. I started this blog as a journal to keep track of Carson during his first year. One year turned into two years, and now we are in year three. And then along came Beckett so this will be about my TWO sweet little boys - the brothers. I plan on turning this into a book as a keepsake. Time flies so fast and it's so easy to forget when they first flipped over, when they got their first tooth, the sleepless nights etc.... this is my way of remembering.

Ah! That rocks. I've tried to do this a bit with Carter but would like to do more. I have such amazing memories of things we do just the two of you! You are a great mama!
Aww that so nice. What a great memory.
Sounds great! And I think it's important to do one on one stuff with your kids sometimes and try to make sure I do special things with just my older son sometimes. Eventually when the twins are older I'll do it with them to. For now they get their special one on one time in the middle of the night when they keep waking up. har ;)
