Good Morning! I am always trying to perfect my morning routine. I’m not a morning person (because I’m a night owl), so having a routine in the morning is great for me.

I ended up exclusively pumping with
This weekend was a good one…low key, with family, but too quick. Friday morning we woke up to head to the Pumpkin Patch about 35 minutes away with my MOPS group. The boys were really difficult that morning (super sleepy) and needless to say, we didn’t make it out in time to be able to get there when we should have. For some strange reason,
Dear Maddox, You just turned 15 months old and this age really has been awesome! You are the biggest snuggler and a total mama’s boy!
