Motherhood is... noisy I'm not only talking about her lungs, I'm talking about everything "baby." Have you noticed that the best toys are either colorful or noisy, and the very best are both. Ke'alohi's favorite noisy toy is nothing we have bought for her, it's Duke and Harley's metal food bowls. She loves grabbing them off the floor and banging them against the wall or the tile. Though it's great that she can entertain herself with … [Read more...]
Motherhood is... little surprises It's the little surprises in life that let you know how blessed you are to have some people in your life. This week we got a box in the mail full of clothes and a pair of the cutest boots in the world from one of my high school friends, Jayme. Jayme lives in Oregon, and although I haven't seen her in years, she has completely showered us with love and little (well big) surprises like this one on multiple … [Read more...]
Motherhood is... about the fur-babies too I don't post nearly enough about our "first babies," Duke and Harley. Duke's claim to fame is that he was the original "man of the house" and was here with me before Lucas. Well, it was just Duke and I for 10 days before I met Lucas, but in dog years that is 70 days! Hahaha. We adopted Harley together one year later and we have been a family ever since. This past week, Harley was hanging out … [Read more...]
Motherhood is... remembering our angels Yesterday marked the one year anniversary of my grandpa's motorcycle accident. I still can't get over how on earth it has been that long; I feel like it just happened yesterday. There is not a day that goes by that I don't wish to God that Ke'alohi got to meet my grandparents. They taught me the most important things you need in life: how to love your family, how to love your … [Read more...]
Motherhood is...mouthyYes, we feed our little girl! Though judging by the picture, you may think she's a bit hungry. Ke'alohi is going through a stage right now where she gnaws on everything and especially likes the edges of tables. We think it helps her with the soreness from teething, so in the mean time we will be wiping everything and anything we think she can get her hands or mouth on!If you want to see … [Read more...]
Motherhood is...sleepless nightsI'm not going to lie, this week has been quite a struggle for us in the sleep department. With Ke'alohi's second tooth coming in, she has been extremely fussy and has been waking up two or three times on most nights. Though we are tired and at times delirious, I'm taking these moments as an opportunity to take some photos of our sweet little girl.If you want to see more blogs also partaking in … [Read more...]
Motherhood is...all about the handsFor babies and moms, it really is all about the hands. It is always a constant juggle to get out of the house every morning with everything she needs, along with everything I need for work.It feels like I have been waiting a while now for the new year to start so that I can begin my Project 52. I have been following Shawna, from Styleberry Blog, for a while now and got the great idea from her. My … [Read more...]
