Hello! I’m so glad you’ve come back. It’s been since Halloween so I thought I’d start with a life update.

1. Baby Farrell #4 is cooking. Due June 30th. We are so excited.
2. Little Handsome Boy, AKA Leo, is the sweetest human being in all the land. He is 17 months old. He kisses all of his stuffies goodnight, every night. Their names are Lion, Mr. Frog, Muhammad Giraffe, Puppy, Mr. Fox, Teddy, and Baby Fox. He sleeps with Hopps and Mr. Bunny. Leo loves music. Leo is my little buddy. My little mama’s boy. I’m obsessed. 
3. Fay and Eden are losing teeth left, right and center. They are becoming extremely helpful in the chore frontier. Hallelujiah. They’ve been driving me a little bonkers lately with their feistiness towards each other. Please send all your tips and tricks to end sibling rivalry etc. etc. 
4. August (our Golden-Doodle pup) is no longer tiny. She’s been chewing on everything lately… which is causing quite the commotion around these parts. It certainly is cause for keeping a tidier house – which does not happen to be my forté. She is a gem though, I will say. We love her.
5. I’m doing my best to hold down the fort while Josh is studying for some big nasty tests. Send prayers. For him and me! Ha! Aside from mom duties, I’ve been keeping busy with my latest hobby, macaron making with my good friend, Kassidy. We are busy perfecting our recipe and will be selling these tasty morcels very soon!

Turtle Necks

Pros: warm, comfy
Cons: may accentuate double chin. Do beware.

Alas! It’s always fun to collab with my beautiful blog pals. The one thing I wanted in my closet this winter was … a turtle neck! I got a beautiful hand-me-down oatmeal colored turtle neck from my Grandma that I LOVE! However – I have a belly so I can’t currently wear it. Joshy got me this amazing, oversized, turtle neck sweater for Christmas. I wuvs it. I was very excited to have unearthed the girls’ turtlenecks during our #konmarie clothing day so that they too could join the turtle club. Leo-boy’s outfit was donned last minute before heading out into the chill for photos. I had a hunch that he wouldn’t want to stay in his car seat. It’s always nice to have a friend willing to snap some shots and freeze their hiney off with you – so special thanks to Kassidy!

Thanks for scrolling. Stay warm.

XOXO The Twinnerpated & CO Mom
