Hello Again & Life Update

Life· Motherhood

Hi! I’m back! I didn’t even realize how long it had been since I posted last until I committed to sitting down and writing a life update and realized that my last post here was a gift guide in November 2021. So it’s been almost a year since I posted last! If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know about my life update and why I’ve been MIA for a bit! 😉

So where did I go? Well, shortly after I posted that gift guide, I found out I was pregnant with our first baby!

If you’ve ever been pregnant, you can probably relate to the first trimester nausea and fatigue (except my nausea lasted my entire pregnancy lol)

As much as I love writing and blogging, my day job took enough out of me during pregnancy that I never felt inspired or felt much of a desire to write on here.

But guess what, he’s here now! In August, we welcomed Theo Sutton into our family.

He’s so sweet and cuddly and we love him so much! He’s almost a month old now (slow down time!!!!) and now I feel like we are starting to get into a rhythm with naps and things so I feel like I have time to some of the things that I want to do– like posting on here again!

I have a huge list of things I want to share with y’all, so if there’s anything you want to see specifically, feel free to comment or send me a DM on Instagram 🙂

I’m so excited to start sharing with y’all again, and now I get to share a different aspect of life with y’all– motherhood!

I actually filmed this at the beginning of October and now I can say it has faded really nicely. This hair gloss gave my hair so much shine and toned it just a bit darker and cooler.

Note: I did end up donating the formula elsewhere— I didn’t want to leave it outside because extreme temperatures can mess with the integrity of formula!

I took my toddler to the grocery store so we could pick out some shelf stable foods that are also good sources of protein. We made a couple of shelf stable birthday cake kits (everything included to make a cake!) and also donated a bunch of diapers that we no longer had use for! 
I really want to start doing this more often, because it caused my son to ask a lot of good questions and we were able to have a good talk about helping others ❤️
