Life opened a can of whoop on my ass a while ago and were still in the thick of it and witty rhetoric seems to have been failing me lately and for the life of me I ugg boot wearing basic bitch ‘literally cannot’ with the insta captions today but I just wanted to say I’m super grateful for the connections I’ve made and the kind souls I’ve encountered through this app. Social media gets a bad rap for a good reason, But it can be a good place as well. Thank you to everyone that has reached out to me and has sent good vibes our way and continues to follow along on this crazy train of a life. (Cue ‘All aboard! Hahahahahahahaaaa!’ 🎶) (now stuck in my head) this season has been the busiest yet, weird that having more children tends to do that... but I have some fun collabs and projects coming in the next few weeks so stay tuned ✨ #trailerlife
Still here, bouncing between looking straight outa Deliverance(cue dueling banjos) and like I give maybe one fuck about my clothing choices.... this one is right smack in the middle, id like to think it confuses the judgey folks around town that like to pass out dirty looks and stares when I come around with my kids with holes in my sweats and my hair lookin like a white birds nest(thank you dry shampoo) 🙌 seriously can there be a little less judgment with pregnancy and raising children? Suddenly boom, a kid crawled outa me so naturally you should judge how I look or how much I’ve gained or if Ive already poured a glass of wine before noon, cause that makes total sense right 🧐 (spoiler, no, I haven’t physically had wine lately. but mentally, yes. I have had many glasses of wine in my head) in the words of the great @spaceykacey ‘pouring salt in my sugar won’t make yours any sweeter, pissin in my yard ain’t gonna make yours any greener. And I wouldn’t know about the rocks in your shoes, so I’ll just do me and honey, you can just do you’ ✨ #mostlyjustrunonsentencesandrandomthoughts #motherhoodrising #satgc
It’s hard to get many angles in the bathroom, cause tiny. But I could share this view over and over and over. My favorite part of the renovating process is adding little pieces of you, whether right away or over time; stuff that speaks to you. White walls and pretty flooring are a nice start but ya know those things that make your space ‘YOUR space’ ya know what I mean? So here’s a little bit of that magic that makes me pretty obsessed with our home: the bathroom door. Thanks to my crazy talented sister @mesamesatabletop #trailerlife #poopwithaview
Yep just your idyllic ‘my children are picture perfect and love to share and play together’ IG photo 😂 But reality, Bear keeps lurching at the blocks grabbing them out of Oak’s hand all wide-eyed and shaking and crazy looking.. and I can’t help but wonder if that’s how I look when Rusty wants a bite of my food... for real though, excited for the day when they can play together without me stepping in to make sure Bear doesn’t try pushing Oak’s head into the ground when he gets frustrated, or when Oak doesn’t take that opportunity to grab onto Bear’s hair with his death grip till Bear yells for me.. wait, who am I kidding they’re siblings, peaceful play..? that’s prob wishful thinking 🤷‍♀️ #trailerlife
Wanna see something crazy? The first pic is me, today, 30 weeks. The second pic is me, tomorrow’s date of last year, 3 0 W E E K S !! Also, not pictured but I was 30 weeks pregnant with Bear the first week in November.. takeaway: Rusty and I should avoid each other the first week of April next year and every year after that if ya know what I mean 😉🍆
🕷 We haven’t done much holiday stuff since Bear was born. No birthday parties or extravagant decorations and dinners, for us it’s really seemed like a waste of money since none of the kids would remember them at all and a few simple from the heart trinkets and gifts were a better fit. I did try to go balls to the wall last year for Christmas only to have Oak come 5 weeks early and a week before Christmas so even that holiday was extremely low key for us. So, The extent of the festive deco; foam Bats and skulls and cyclops kitties and some paper bats I have taped to the window and some little pumpkins we are yet to paint as a family and everything fits inside a shoebox! That’s my only decorating rule, everything needs to be able to be tucked in a shoebox and not take up space in our storage. 👻 Now that Bear is to the age where he’s getting into the holidays, Like he wears a monster headband and tail everyday And points to any and all bats and ghosts, we’re still keeping decorations low key but we’re putting more effort into celebrating the holidays, and probably birthdays too(dreading this one cause my kids bdays are 10 days apart so heyyyyyyy shared birthday)(I grew up sharing a bday party with both sisters cause we were all 4 days apart and hated it but understand and appreciate them deeply now 😂) so moral of my novel of a caption, check out my Halloween decorations !! 😂 #trailerlife
