Painting, painting, painting, painting. Everyday she's painting. 🎨 Which also means extra... laundry, laundry, lots of laundry. Everyday there's so much laundry. πŸŽΆπŸ˜†

We have officially lived in our house for one year. If you would have told me in September of 2015 that this would be our home in just one month I wouldn't have believed you. I never imagined we'd be here, but I am so thankful for this home and the people I share it with.

One of those extremely rare days where she came out of her room dressed not in a dress, not in leggings, not in a skirt, but in a t-shirt and JEANS! And she even said, "Mom, I love jeans!" What is even happening right now?? 😱

Two little chubby cheeked babies. ❤️❤️

This girl is 7 months old already! Sitting up, scooting around a bit, two teeth in and more coming, and still not a fan of solid food. πŸ’œ #astridevangeline #sevenmonthsold

There may not be many more days left for those little bare toes before they'll need to be covered by layers of socks and thick clunky boots. πŸ‚πŸƒπŸŒž #mnfall #oscardanielranem

The very first moments with Astrid. So new, so squishy, so tiny, so perfect. ❤️ #feelingnostalgic #newborn #waterbirth

Look at those two little teeth! My baby is growing too fast! 😩

He's been asking and asking to do more school lately so he started his kindergarten math book a little early. I think he really just wanted to use the dry erase marker. πŸ˜‰ #declanjamesranem #ranemschoolhouse

Who needs art on the wall when you have this view out your bedroom window? #fallcolors #mnfall #mapletree

And then sometimes (most times) you have to strap someone to your back to get some actual food prepared for the day. #illtakethesnugglesthough #isittimeforanothercupofcoffeeyet #sendreinforcements #oneofthosedays

Some days I think it would be really nice to have an open concept kitchen. Other days I am VERY thankful to be able to close this door and cook dinner in peace. πŸ‘ #peaceandquiet #pancakesfordinner #swingingdoor

This guy wanted to show me how he could play "chai-kocky" (Tchaikovsky) but then he broke into a fit of laughter, in typical Oscar fashion. Love this kid. ❤️

This little monkey is 6 months old (plus 2 weeks, oops 😬). She has recently found her voice and likes to talk quite a bit and babble on and on, she just started eating (aka tasting and spitting out) some foods, she has one bottom tooth, and she sits up like a pro. ❤️ #astridevangeline #sixmonths
