MOTHERHOOD

Let's hang!

If you would have told me 2 years ago that I would

If you would have told me 2 years ago that I would have a daughter, I would have laughed in your face.

For some reason after I had Griffin, I felt I was destined to be a boys-only mom... but honestly, I think the thought of NOT having a daughter made me so sad that I was just trying to guard myself.

I am really, really close with my mom, so I always wanted to be able to have that connection with my own daughter some day. When we went in for the 14 week sneak peek ultrasound, I was SHOOCCCKKKED when they told me I was having a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Needless to say, I am so incredibly blessed to have Natalie. She is like a little ray of sunshine. Her smiles light up a room!!!!

I love her so much and I’m so blessed to be her mom!!!!! #nationaldaughtersday

Nat is 2 months old and I love her so much it hurt

Nat is 2 months old and I love her so much it hurts. 😵🥰😍

9 months in, 9 weeks out. ✨ The baby phase feel

9 months in, 9 weeks out. ✨

The baby phase feels so different this time. The first time around, I felt the constant weight of PPD and motherhood wasn’t joyful for me. I constantly felt like I was failing. Everything felt so heavy all the time.

This time feels so much different. I feel more experienced and confident. Natalie is so happy and smiley. It’s like she’s constantly reassuring me I’m doing a good job! 😭😍

Having two kids is a handful, but it makes it easier when they’re cheering me on. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💜

My brother was in town for the weekend, so we got

My brother was in town for the weekend, so we got a rare all-siblings pic and one with my whole fam! It’s so odd transitioning into this phase of life. Finally this weekend it felt normal calling my brothers “uncle,” and Griffin calls his Aunt Meg “Uncle” too 🤣☠️.

Griffin had so much fun swimming with his cousins that he fell asleep in the car on the way home. It was the first time in over a year that I saw him fall asleep outside of his bed! 🤯

I’m so thankful for family time and this season of life!

This is our patio. Correction: This is our patio 1

This is our patio. Correction: This is our patio 1000% cleaner than it usually looks. 🤣

We hardly use it, but after we got our house painted in May we got the itch to make something of it! My DIY-and-tech-obsessed husband hired an electrician last month to run wire for both speakers and a ceiling fan, and now we’re left with all these holes in the ceiling, lol.

SO, after some Pinteresting, we’ve decided to install cedar planks on the ceiling! See picture 2 for a rough idea of what we’re going for. Obviously it won’t look exactly like that 🤣, but you can get the gist!

Andrew bought all the planks yesterday and (I hope!) he’ll finish this weekend. Knowing him, he’ll probably install the fan and speakers too! 🤪

Annnddddd I’m off to look at patio furniture!!

PS - with the temps finally hinting at cooling down here in AZ, patio season is just beginning here! YAAYYYYY!!!
