Wednesday.

 Hello friends!

Happy Wednesday!

I've got to be honest; the creative side of my brain just seems to be stagnant. I've been over here trying to figure out what to blog about and I just can't seem to come up with anything that seems worth it. We've had so many appointments these last few weeks and just lots to do ourselves and with the kids that the blog has been the last thing on my mind. But it's there and ever present, and it weighs on me to get on here and write but for whatever reason I can't seem to feel like anything is worth it to share. 

I really really want to start sharing our routines on my Instagram. It's something I've been wanting to do forever but whenever I get the urge I just look around at my house and can't help but feel self-conscious. Every content creator I see who does what I want to do have these beautiful houses and mine well, it needs a lot of renovating. Renovating that is not in the budget. Sometimes I prop my phone up on my tripod and hit record and all I can see is the imperfections in my house and then I delete delete delete. I don't know, I'm second guessing this whole thing. However, this has weighed heavy on my heart as something I want to do for years and years so I'm not really sure what to do with that. I just cannot shake that "I'm not good enough" feeling no matter how hard I try. Do I keep doing this? Do I just do the videos even though my house isn't perfect? I don't know. I often wonder if this is how everyone feels when putting themselves out there? But they just seem so confident. It's hard for me to find that confidence in myself. That's a whole other post for a different day. At the end of the day, I really do like doing THIS. It's fun for me and gives me something that's solely mine when majority of my days are dedicated to everyone else. Maybe that's it? Maybe just keep doing what I like, stop over thinking it and hope the creative juices start flowing and forget about all the other stuff. We shall see....

But for now, here are a few pics of life lately...


Kensington got her braces on last week! If you've been keeping track, yes, she's the 4th person in a row in our house to have braces. We're going on 5 years of someone consistently having braces here!!





We've had great weather and spent lots of time out by the firepit!


You all know I love a good striped tee. I grabbed this one when it was on sale and it's going to be perfect all spring and summer! It's only $8 right now and comes in a bunch of colors! 
I got my true size medium.



We got our new inground sprinklers hooked up and even though it was a bit chilly the kids needed to test them out!




Kamryn had her cheer banquet on Monday night. Here she is with a couple of the girls. We're so proud of her and grateful she's made such great friends.



Well, that'll do it for today. The kids have a half day from school so I've gotta get my walk in, clean up and do some laundry before they start to trickle back in. I have a love/hate relationship with half days. 

I hope you all have a great day! xoxo

  1. Keep doing the videos honey even if you think they show imperfections because it shows you are REAL. Nobody is perfect , no house is perfect… well except you and your family in my eyes.
    People will appreciate the realness of the videos.

  2. Imperfect is REAL! And oh my goodness do people want more reality and authenticity out there in the world. I understand this imposter syndrome really well and it is part of the process. The imperfections of our home and life make us more relatable to so many. If you love this - do it ❤️ - get it girl!
