She asked for it, we talked about it, and she was a champ! She said she wants a septum piercing next hahaha!

I feel really good about the relationship Semilla and I have been creating with one another. I often get nervous about making sure she has enough love and attention because I experienced so many stages with Luna being my only child and I worry that I’m doing her a disservice sometimes. When we have our one on one moments together I feel refueled and sure of myself. Right now, I know we are in a really great place. Thank you SO much, my love!

Lately she’s been asking me everyday to go up on my back. At 3yo we are having a resurgence but it will forever be #babywearing

Teething feverish baby needs are on full blast: Mama knows the answer to deadlines and snuggles = wear the baby!

I appreciate the simple things that give children so much to laugh about. Plastic bin “pools” for the win today ❤❤

Successful wrap nap transfers are probably one of my favorite times of the day yayyy I get to not parent for like an hour and change…while I clean up the mess from while she was up to prepare for her to get back up…..wait a minute

And while big sis catches up on reading we catch up on snuggling

I am committed to remaining hands off and letting them make as much of an absolute mess as they want. In the meantime I’ll just be here taking creepy photos through the screen door

Lawwwwwd! Cranky 3nager in tow to help me get through the rest of the morning. At some point parenting gets easier right? Lie to me if you must. *sings to self* Just keep swimming, just keep swimming

When your child is on your back doing the MOST and won’t go down for their nap and all you wanna do is get something accomplished once they’re down but all you can do is hope for Instagram sympathy so you snap a selfie wild eyebrows and all but you dgaf….

Yeah….that’s me right now.

I’m gonna miss walking everywhere barefoot when we move back to the states

100% real life this morning. Rooster hair, toddler in tow to calm a screaming 3yo, oatmeal on the stove, and bag packed ready to jet to the beach to switch up our usual morning routine. Feeling weirdly peaceful.

Wow. As I am overcome with excitement and nostalgia as we celebrate the anniversary of us welcoming baby S into this world, I am also full of peace, confidence, and fervor. I have learned and experienced so much over the last year and although I try to subscribe to time as little as possible I can’t help but smile at this bookmark. I am a brand new woman and I am the same I have always been at the core. Today I celebrate you choosing me and me learning what it means to be ok with also choosing and trusting myself. Thank you Semilla, you are a fountain of joy and are rooted in boundless love. Stretch, grow, and shine as you were created to do my little seed ❤

After getting our 1yo down my 3yo was resisting going to sleep and asked me to wear her to down. I was already frustrated and generally over the bedtime cuddling and ready for some kid free time but as she pleaded I was reminded that she might not ask for me forever…and if she does then I’ll probably come running. Learning to find a balance between having both of our needs met is endless, I’m learning to just trust my compass.
