Oh my goodness, what a couple weeks it has been! I have felt so out of the loop and like I am constantly playing catch up! I seriously cannot even complain because it has been so great to finally be up from the couch. Seriously guys, the botched epidural was the craziest thing that happened and of course we would be the “1%” that this happens too! I was telling people this delivery was one of the easiest for me – no issues outside the epidural, we arrived on time, five pushes – I’m telling you, I could have walked out of the hospital that day, that’s how good I was feeling! So needless to say it was extra hard when 99% of the experience was beautiful and truly amazing and just that 1% had ruined it big time for me.

Good morning everyone, I hope you had an amazing weekend! Today I am sharing our weekend rewind. We had a pretty low key weekend and stuck around the house for most of it. Saturday, we went to a flea market and garage sale, hung some things up around the house and met up with some girlfriends who came in from out of town! Sunday, we went to church and breakfast at a local diner and did some major sorting and organizing of paperwork. Again, my documenting skills are awful, but it wasn’t the coolest weekend to showcase, ha!

We wanted to take the kiddos to a little amusement park and swim, but the weather was pretty weird all weekend so any set time we planned to go swimming in the pool was ruined by random spurts of rain, annoying! But we were able to end the weekend in the pool which was nice!

Hey everyone and happy Friday! I cannot believe how quickly the weeks and months are going by and all the changes that are happening this month (at least my family)!  Since it is mid-August, I thought I would post an update on how we are doing with our savings challenge this month. If you have no idea what I am talking about because you are new – here is a link to that post!

I wish I was tracking my steps this weekend because oh my gosh I am literally DEAD! Hence the reason for the late post today! Why does it seem necessary to clean and scrub the siding on the house, vacuum and organize the garage & basement and make sure the outside is looking great, all before baby arrives? I literally stopped myself multiple times this weekend asking those questions, (#nestingphaseisreal) but here we are Monday with everything in line, shockingly!

Good morning everyone – happy Monday! Ugh it is mornings like this that get me ready for Fall but also make me hate that the fact that this summer is flying and almost over! I have been so tempted to purchase new Fall clothing, but have been trying to hard to stop myself from going crazy! Anyone else have advice on how to have will power?!

So this weekend was an absolute crazy one – I really am already terrible at documenting things and it totally spiraled probably due to the fact that I was trying to keep it together because my husband was out of town from Thursday morning to Sunday night! What is humorous is that I stay at home with the kids EVERY DAY, so why was this any different?! In all seriousness, I think baby #3 is ready to come sooner than we think and my body just wanted me to sit!

Happy Monday everyone! One of the main purposes of why I wanted to start this blog was to also selfishly force myself to “journal” things going on with my family. I am also the absolute WORST picture taker of all time, so hopefully this will force me to stop and document moments because the kiddos are not going to get any younger 🙁

What we thought would start as a relaxing weekend, turned into another crazy one again! Also, how is it the last week of July…?  This summer is moving crazy fast, but I don’t even want to think about that! We have a lot of fun and exciting things happening ahead and for our month of August!

Happy Friday everyone! Today I am sharing a recent challenge that my husband and I are going to try out for the month of August. We like to check in mid month and see how we are doing budget wise, see what areas we can improve and also continue to mark down our 2020 goals.
