Yesterday I chopped off my hair! I’ve wanted a pixie, or any short hair cut, for as long as I can remember. I’ve really wanted one since I entered into motherhood. Before quarantine, I had decided that I was finally going to take the plunge and do it. I got over my fear of looking […]
Spring has officially sprung here in this little place we call home. The weather has been hovering in the 60s with the occasional 80 degree day. We are outside every chance we can get. Every afternoon is spent outside. On my days off, we head to the lake to ride bikes and walk around the […]
I’ve been on a bit of an emotional down lately. I’m finding myself grieving the tiny baby stage of not only Noa, but all of my kids. It is such a strange bundle of emotions to wade through. I am one hundred and ten percent sure that we will not be having anymore children. But […]
What a crazy time we are living in right now. I’ve felt a heavy grief coming over me for the past couple days as we have had to make some hard decisions about how we are going to approach this Coronavirus (COVID 19). Today is the last day the kids will see my parents for […]
It has been a long time since blogging a captain’s log. Life is crazy at the moment. Sylas came down with influenza B over the past weekend and he is on his second day missing school. We’ve rearranged our work schedules for childcare. I feel like I’m sitting in shark-infested waters just waiting for the […]
At this moment, my kids are seven, four, two and a half, and three months. My life is crazy. The days are blending together into this messy soup and I barely have an idea what is going on most of the time. I returned to work from maternity leave so I feel even busier in […]
I don’t know that I’ll get through writing this post without shedding more tears, but I do know that I need to lay down what has been on my heart the past few days. My guilty pleasure is watching YouTube moms. I have several that I watch religiously. I love their content, I love that […]
I had my first day back at work yesterday. I survived, but I really hated coming back. It feels like my time off went by so much faster than with the rest. I think it was a combination of Noa being my last baby, and us being sick nearly the entirety of the twelve weeks […]
Wow is all I can say! Our sweet little babe made a grand entrance into the world this morning, a short 2 hours and 9 minutes after my water broke. We had only been at the hospital for just under an hour and a half before she was born and she came out sunny side […]
We went to the beach in Florida this summer. We rented a big beach house right on the beach for a whole week. Our house had a private fenced-in pool with a big landing as the first stair where little ones can wade in the water. The landing was huge. I could lay my whole […]
