Amelia Goding
Hi! I am Amelia; stay at home mom to Andrew (5 years old in June), Daniel and Madlyn (2.5 years old), and Tyler (2 weeks old). We moved from Minnesota to Fort Worth two years ago, when our twins were 4 months old, for my husband's job. His job just recently transferred us back to Minnsota, when I was 7 months pregnant (because who doesn’t love moving with young twins or being super pregnant?).
We are currently in temporary housing-in a small apartment, while we wait to close on our new house. We (the adults) keep ourselves sane during the day by letting the kids watch way too much Daniel Tiger, Earth to Luna, and Magic School Bus (at least it is educational screen time?). When I can manage to get the kids to turn off the TV, they love to move non stop. They are all finally figuring out how to play together, although sometimes it is a little rough. We are very excited to have a basement again in a month, where we can set up a big play space for them with some soft places for them to jump and rough house on!
We also like to get outside. I decided to take on the 1,000 hours outside challenge this year. I am not expecting to make it to the full 1,000 hours, but figured even if we fail, we win just for getting outside more! Our current favorite outside place is our friends backyard, where the kids have fun running after their friends 11 chickens. We also like to visit local playgrounds, as long as they aren’t busy!
While we are happy to be back in Minnesota, and close to family again; we already miss Texas and the amazing people and friends that we met there!
