No big secret that I loooooooooove Christmas craft

No big secret that I loooooooooove Christmas crafting! 🎄💕 And there’s really no time like the present to prepare to document your holiday. I’m sure my own kids aren’t the only ones out there that get a kick out of making their own books, so I made it easy for you this year. My Christmas Memory Book is a place you can store those treasured photos and memories of the season with prompts and pretty paper designs and fun little things to cut out and glue down to decorate. 😍 Maybe you’re not super crafty and YOU want to use it, too! Go for it. I firmly believe in memories being stored somewhere other than our phones, and friends, it doesn’t have to be complicated. Print some pics you snapped. Get some tape or a glue stick. Write a few words with an old pen if you want. But put them somewhere that you can look back on in later years when those same photos are long since stored in the “cloud.” (Wherever that goes!) You can find a full flip through on YouTube and buy it on Amazon using the link in my bio! 🥰

Cause I think we can use some calm on social media

Cause I think we can use some calm on social media. And I also wanted to share a minute of my morning with you. ❤️ Happy November!

… and maybe less snowy, too? 😅 Another night

… and maybe less snowy, too? 😅Another night of trick or treating in the books. I had a blast with my Michael Jackson (Yeah, Nadia’s still on that. 🤣) and little Princess Aurora! 💕🎃

In less than a week, my baby will be 5. I admitted

In less than a week, my baby will be 5. I admittedly (and unsurprisingly) have not been doing super well with it. 🥹 For some reason, I struggle harder with the fifth birthday. It feels like everything speeds up after 5. And, man! I’ve enjoyed her little years!! But today, instead of going to my default mode of crying that my baby is growing up too fast, I’ve made the effort to simply press pause and say thank you to God for five solid years with Natasha. ❤️ It’s a funny thing raising a kid that you’re pretty sure is another version of yourself. 😆 (Like, she is currently making a home…with a pool…for a bunch of ladybugs she found on our porch and I’m having vivid flashbacks to 5 year old MB who did the EXACT SAME THING. Except mine was in a shoebox in my bedroom, much to my mom’s horror when she found the Bug Condo. Pool included.)Anyways… I found an old photo of her the other day and she saw me getting a little weepy over it. I told her it feels like yesterday that I took it and I remembered that morning of snuggling in bed so clearly. She laughed and said, “Let’s do it again!” So that we did. We recreated it with a TON of laughter and I’m pretty sure we’ll be doing this every 5 years from here on out. ☺️ I just wanted to share and say, I’m about to have a 5 year old in a week (and a teenager in a few months!! 😅) and I don’t think I’ve ever EVER felt so grateful to spend each and every day with the precious girls that call me Mama.This mom thing is so dang good.

What is this word “relax” you speak of? 🤣

Not gonna lie… I was a little afraid to release

Not gonna lie… I was a little afraid to release this book and read the reviews. You never know what you’re gonna get when you create a Halloween book and flip the narrative from ghosts to the gospel. But I saw a gap in the children’s book section this time of year and wanted to fill it. So to say I’m pleasantly surprised at the 5 star ratings would be an understatement. 🥹 Thank you so SO much! I wish I could hug each of you! ❤️❤️❤️
