F I V E M O N T H S O L D • Wells is a crazy strong baby man who started crawling this week and weighs in around 20 lbs these days. He can be so smiley and so whiny but lately he’s mostly just pleased with himself because he can get to all of Hennie’s toys. Can’t believe how fast you’re growing up, my boy! Now if only you’d sleep through the night 🙏🏼 #ifonly • • • • #Wells1to12 #fivemonthsold #babyboy #fivemontholdboy #babiesdontkeep #babiesdontsleep #sleeplessnights #loverunsmiles #newcrawler #secondbaby #twoundertwo
Two sick kids. Two sick parents. Fevers. Chills. Aches. Coughs. Sore throats. Congested noses. Snot everywhere because #toddlerlife. I am so deep in the trenches I worry that I may never find my way back out. And god knows it’s gonna be a while til I get to sleep more than an hour here and there. • But even in the dead of night when yet another coughing fit wakes yet another member of this family I think “holy shit am I ever lucky.” Their illnesses are temporary. Flu season may feel unending but their bodies will heal and they will play and laugh again and I will get to turn off Paw Patrol one day and disinfect my house and move on. I am so lucky to get to rub their backs and make them smoothies and put ointment under their sore noses. I am so lucky that they’re healthy I could just burst into tears. 🤧🤒
It’s 2019 now and these @babesagainstbull shirts majorly match my current vibes: there’s just no room in the new year for bullshit. Bullshit in my head telling me I’m weak if I have an anxiety attack or that I’m a shit ‘housewife’ (barf) if all the laundry isn’t done before bed. Bullshit procrastinating keeping me from self care (which includes dental work, unfortch) or passion projects that excite me. Bullshit on this platform: I’m unfollowing those candy-coated mommies whose gross misrepresentation of real life feeds the evil comparison game that convinces me that everyone else is doing a better job raising their kids (and wakes up with a full face of makeup and a softly tousled mombun). Bullshit in the media skewing facts, misreporting news, and hiring the same boring body type to sell bullshit skinny tea. • Know what’s not bullshit? Empathy. Positive self talk. Inclusivity. Voting. Supporting small businesses. Taking care of your body. Diversity. Consent. Self care. Encouragement. Informed opinions. Unplugging. Giving a shit. Going outside and not having to take a picture of the outside (lol, I’ll be working on this one allllll year). • Feel free to call me on my bullshit anytime. Like for example this is my mom’s front door, not mine (we don’t have a pretty front door because we live in an apartment building). And I had to coax my daughter to take this photo with me while her daddy was still sleeping because she looks right through me when he’s around. And I got these shirts for free but they were actually on my Christmas list anyway (what luck!). • If you wanna, check out @babesagainstbull - she’s a mama whose business was born after she made shirts for a women’s march and friends kept asking her to make more for them! I love that. She has free graphics for your signs for the next march on Jan 19. Or your kids nursery walls ✊🏻 #FutureBabes • • • • #babesagainstbullshit #nobullshitmotherhood #myhonestmotherhood #realmotherhood #ohheymama #toddlermom #toddlerlife #momsanddaughters #toddlerfashion #noonansyndrome #thatwinedoor #daddysgirl #believewomen #womensmarch #timesup #nastywomen #yesallwomen #effyourbeautystandards #wecallBS
Happy New Year to you and yours! • ✨2018 was a year of big change for me - I was pregnant for over 7 months of the year! I feel like I did my best to give my expectations and my body some grace as we transitioned to a family of four but I’ll admit that I’m super excited to be leaving the trenches of newborn life in the old year. We’re finding our new groove, hammering out a schedule at last, and I’m actually starting to feel a little like myself again. Here’s to no new (Procter) babies in 2019! 🥂 • • • • #uterusonsabbatical #newyearseve #newyears2018 #freshstart #familyoffour #babywearing #pnwparenting #fourthtrimester #pnwmama #mywildbird #slingbaby #wildbird #pnwlife
