Annoyingly Excited...

But I don't care! 

You guys, I love life! I'm pretty sure this is the happiest I've ever been in my entire life! It's April and I LOVE April! Ben and I will be celebrating 3 years of blissful, amazing and loving marriage on the 16th. We are headed to Prom on the 12th (to celebrate our marriage)... and April just rocks!

My It Works! Business is up and booming again! After my miscarriage in July 2012 I let everything fall to the wayside. I was so caught up in my grievance that I just didn't care. I put on 15 pounds, I didn't have any motivation. Life just sucked for us in 2012. But a lot has change since then and now I'm just loving life and all of God's miracles!

Yesterday was a BIG day! It was jammed packed full and I just loved every minute of it!

I got the kids up and around early so we could leave and go get my sister. While getting around I found out it's definitely time to put away the Pack N Play. We barely ever use it anymore and since she has a new found love of standing up... this happened! She's such a happy girl!


Then, we left, ran some errands and went to pick up my sister! Ran to Lowe's for some things and afterwards, this happened!


Whatcha think?! I'm, personally, LOVING it! I'm so elated I made the bold decision to chop off my hair in May last year and go short! 

A little trip down memory lane...


Man... my hair was LONG! The day it fell into the toilet while helping Bentley with his pants after a successful potty trip is the day I made my appointment to have it cut! I'm so glad I did! I was 23 weeks pregnant with Miss Bailey at the time!

So after getting my hair cut, my sister and I ran the kids... err, drive rather. We drove the kids back home to stay with daddy while I ran to my Wrap One on One appointment! Little did I know that this appointment was going to just help top off the amazing that the day had already been!

Look at her results after just ONE wrap!


Once again, reminding me why I started this business up two years ago! I love this!

After that, we started with some Home Renovations!! 

My new vacuum...


I took the plunge and got the Shark Navigator!

Some new Fluff for Miss Bailey!!


and... painting!!


We are room sharing while we complete this weekend project! Bentley was super excited to be sleeping in "mommy daddy room!" because sister sleeps in our room every night! After this project is finished, the kids will be sharing the master bedroom along with our guest bed and we will be taking Bentley's room! I'm super excited about this!


Just for fun... some Selfies!
#firstletmetakeaselfie



Oh, and who doesn't love a good boob shot. They will change your life ;-) hehe!


Painting this morning... (which, I need to finish this blog post before my husband goes postal that I'm not helping him paint right now!)



This color is going to look the BOMB-DIGGITY (did I just use that phrase?!) with a teal bedding set and our chocolate brown dresser! eek!

Until next time, friends

Postpartum Herbal Baths

  To buy Postpartum Herbal Bath Blends: You can purchase my handcrafted blend  HERE! Hey sister! I'm so excited to be talking about Postpartum Herbal Baths on the blog! My Postpartum Herbal Baths are officially launched on my website and being offered! I make these in very small batches, so the quantities in stock are limited, but pre-ordering is always an option if I happen to be out of stock!  I really enjoyed the benefits of a Postpartum Herbal Bath after the birth of Badrick! About four days postpartum, my sweet hubby got my herbs steeping in a giant stock pot, ran me a beautiful bath, lit a candle and got both Badrick and I settled into our bath while checking on us periodically. The time we spent in that bath soaking are some of my fondest postpartum moments.  Badrick blissfully laid in my arms nursing and napping. I laid there blissfully reminiscing on our wonderful home water birth and the four days that had already passed since we welcomed this new little so...

Who Told My Baby She Could Grow Up?!

Image
I'm serious. Who told her? Because I want to speak with you! You should have come to me first because I am her mother! I did not give you permission to tell my baby that she could grow up! Miss Bailey turned 7 months today! I can hardly believe that 7 months have gone by so quickly! She was just my itty bitty last week, wasn't she? Let's reminisce. Because I love walks down Memory Lane.   That was 7 months ago... It seems like last week. Here's my little beauty today! Very happy after dinner last night! BLW FTW! On Monday she pulled herself up standing for the very first time! I finally caught it on camera today! Perfect for her 7 month birthday! And today marks 7 months of Exclusively Breastfeeding! I'm so grateful for being able to make it this far in our breastfeeding journey! Her newest favorite is Nurse-nastics! (think, gymnastics) Happy Wednesday, y'all! Make it awesome! Until nex...

Book Review: Ancient Map for Modern Birth by Pam England

Image
  Ancient Map for Modern Birth By Pam England “When your childbearing year becomes a heart journey, you will not just be birthing your child; all along the way you will be birthing a new self.” While you may not be handed a physical map, the journey through preconception, conception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum is a journey in itself, that without a “map” can be very tedious to journey through. Instead of wading through murky waters and trudging through the thick, uncharted forests of your own personal journey, equip yourself with a map of knowledge that will clear your paths and give you guidance. As a maiden, you will be beginning the separation of maiden into mother. An old version of you must die away to birth the new version of you. And, you will do this again and again for each and every baby that you so choose to bring forth.  “You can study another’s map or show someone yours, but remember: no two landscapes of labor are the same.” As I read through chapter two and...
