Spring Time with Janie and Jack

spring-time-with-janie-and-jack

Spring has already sprung (even if it doesn’t quite feel like it), and Easter is in 5 days! I still can’t believe it’s nearly April. But I see a light at the end of the tunnel now, and that light is warm weather, bare shoulders, and chubby baby legs peeking out of rompers! I love this time of the year. And just as the cold starts to disappear, I can see my girls’ need to just get outside and run around in that fresh air that spring brings us. They’ve definitely gotten bored of inside activities…

Unplanned Plans

unplanned-plans

I feel like being so connected to social media, makes me want spring even more! Don’t you? And in the south, one day it’s 80 and the next is snowing. True story. Happened this week. And I feel like with the impending spring season, our life is just getting more and more hectic. I sat down to look at my calendar today, and I have something to do literally every single day. One of them may be a hair appointment (which is actually super relaxing), but just seeing a full calendar stresses me the heck out! Dinners with…

AdventureNest

“She was an adventurer at heart; but oh how she loved drinking this tea from this mug in this chair. Oh how she loved to be home.”That quote explains me to a T. Adventure was my middle name before children, and then I saw how hard it is to just pick up and leave the world behind while I went to explore more of the world, so it’s easier to just stay and play at home. And these two little girls of ours are exactly the same. They love to go explore, find new playgrounds, travel to different…

Mommy and Me: Snow Day Edition

mommy-and-me-snow-day-edition

It comes to no surprise that I love mommy and me pieces. I never thought I’d be the mom that wanted to match her kids ( I remember hatinggggg that as a child), but here I am, 29 years young, wanting to do a little matching with my girls. Nothing over the top or too frou frou (although they might think it is when they hit puberty). Just some subtle prints or pieces here and there. You’ll often see us wearing our favorite pom hats this winter from Melina’s Bowtique. They are SO darn cute. Even if you…

Where Do I Fit In To All of This?

where-do-i-fit-in-to-all-of-this

Kind of tagging along to my last blog post about the price of motherhood…the next question in my head is, “where do I fit in to all of this in the grand scheme of things.” Who am I now? How can I find the old me in my new identity. I think we all agreed that once you cross the line of going into motherhood, there’s no backing out of it. You’re there forever. So, how do you hold on to a little of that carefree attitude you once embraced? Or how do you remove yourself from…

Spring Travels

spring-travels

Our May filled up so quickly! I feel like we’ve been traveling for the past month. We finally found a system that worked to make Hazel happy in the car, though! So, the last two trips were relatively low stress. Just lots of pumping in the car! When there’s a crying baby involved, you don’t really care if you’re hooked up to a pump driving by everyone. If you see something you don’t want to see, don’t look in my windows! We did have such a great time celebrating my grandmother’s 80th birthday…
