Life has been pleasantly boring lately minus a few instances. Baby boy is 15 months, running, and full of personality. We moved & can now see the Olympic Mountains in the distance from our living room. I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease & started physical therapy (yay aging). And every morning I wake up, feed my son chocolate overnight oats, and spend my day reading him books & going for walks. Pleasantly simple & pleasantly boring 🧡

P.s. I’m writing again. Poetry & short stories.

Yesterday was a great day 🧡 I celebrated another trip around the sun with my favorite people hiking, snuggling, watching firsts (baby is crawling!!), and ended the day with a much needed date night 🥂 All in all, a great birthday! Cheers to 31 ✨

I just have to post on my feed about a mom win today.

I always knew when I had kids I would wear them on me. I have LOVED wrapping James since he was a few days old and having him close to my body while my hands are free. As he’s gotten bigger it’s gotten more challenging because my body just isn’t recovering quick enough to keep up with his weight, I got discouraged for a minute because I couldn’t carry or wear him as long.

I recently joined a carrier lending library where all I have to do is pay for shipping to send these carriers off to the next person. Today we got to try my dream carrier, a Lenny Lamb Onbuhimo. These carriers usually run close to $200 because they are crafted beautifully & meticulously. I get to keep this for a week for only $10 ✨

As soon as I received this carrier in the mail today I opened it up and threw it on. This is our third time trying a back carry, which can be a little daunting at first. We got such a cozy fit on the first try and I am beyond happy I get to wear my baby like this now 😍 My mom heart is soaring! It was for sure a win in my book.

Some days I use filters to boost my confidence. (And that’s okay!)

Especially being 6 months postpartum and learning to love this new body of mine. I’m at the heaviest I’ve been in my life and my body does not look familiar when I look in the mirror. Pregnancy blessed me with new stretch marks, cellulite, acne, an apron belly, and a wonderful baby boy. I’m slowly coming to terms with the newness of my vessel… But this struggle isn’t new.

Throughout my adult life, my weight has fluctuated often. I have had stretch marks, cellulite, and acne since I was a teenager. I have struggled with my mindset around these “imperfections” because I was consistently fed the message that bodies with “flaws” were only acceptable if they were postpartum bodies. Weird, right? Even weirder now being postpartum.

As I’ve gotten older I am gently coming to peace with this: My body has always been perfect and precisely what I needed.

Yes, I’ve dealt with some health issues due to my weight, but I am grateful that my body works (and has worked) the way it does. I am (and always have been) beautiful and strong.

I have healed my relationship with food, I no longer restrict or binge, I eat when I’m hungry and eat what I want and what makes me feel good. I wear what I’m comfortable in, I no longer alter myself to fit my clothes, I instead buy clothes that fit me.

Do I still occasionally nitpick? Of course, everyone does. But I no longer get stuck in that spiral of staring in the mirror pointing out that pimple, this stretch mark, that blemish. Instead, I catch myself and remind myself I am beautiful just the way I am.

And guess what? You’re beautiful too. You should try saying that to yourself in the mirror sometimes, and witness the magic that unfolds when you do.

All bodies are beautiful and you can’t say anything to convince me otherwise. And it’s okay to use filters occasionally to remind yourself of your beauty, have no shame in your game as long as you remember to look at your true & beautiful self in the mirror at the end of the day and say, “I am beautiful just the way I am.” 🧡

Postpartum is weird.

Baby’s first hike 🌲 He loved it & so did I! Getting outside with my little nugget (and my mom!) felt SO good. We took a short & easy hike to ease into it. The lake we hiked around was gorgeous, complete with towering rocks & trees, beautiful summer flowers, hummingbirds and dragonflies all around, and the best company. I cannot wait to hike more with my son, this is what I envisioned motherhood to look like 🧡 “And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.” — John Muir

My baby whenever we walk underneath trees 😍 Walks have been few lately as it’s way too hot to be outside for more than 10 minutes unless we’re in the shade. I’m also dealing with a lot of soreness and fatigue that has called me to rest. Today was cool & I felt energized so we took a short stroll around our complex 🌲 We love the trees out here and it’s so beautiful to see James in awe of all he sees when we’re outside. Watching life through my son’s eyes is a joy to witness, he is amazed by everything. He’s just about 6 months old now, crazy how fast he’s growing!
