Man, life has been crazy lately. I thought things were difficult at the beginning of mommyhood, but now that Luna is about to be one (!!!), I feel like I don’t have any time for anything! My organization skills have been pushed to the max, and I have no idea how I’ve been able to cross things off my list. There are a lot of transitions coming up as well, which has me kind of in a state, so to speak. I even got a muscle spasm in my neck from the stress. My work schedule is completely changing (so thankful to have work, seriously), I’m planning an intimate party for Luna and her first trip to Disney World (!!), the hubby’s birthday shortly after and then I’m headed to MegaCon Tampa Bay to return just in time for Halloween. Oh, and have I mentioned Luna is starting day care in November? It’s a lot. Almost too much. But I’m rolling on this wave, and trying my best to not lose my mind. Having it all takes your all, it seems.
In between the madness, I try to appreciate the little moments that really mean so much. After taking these photos, we were driving back home and I put my head on Luna’s lap while she was in her car seat. She found this hilarious and started giggling uncontrollably. I took in her laughter, breathed her in, and cried (with love + happiness, of course). When things get to be too much, I find just looking at this little thing I made to make it all right again.

After the insane night I had, this totally made me cry. I am SO tired. And there is so much to do and so little time. Thank you for always making me feel like I’m not alone. They are little wonderful pieces of our souls.

It sounds like your handling the craziness quite well! Things can definitely feel overwhelming sometimes, and I love that you can sit back and really appreciate the little moments like her laughter. That’s so important, and when things get super stressful it can be really hard to remember to embrace it sometimes. So good for you for rocking it! Also, I can’t believe Luna is going to be one already. So crazy!

Oh no. Didn’t want to make you cry. If I didn’t have you around, I’d go nuts for sure! Mommin’ ain’t easy.

Aw thank you so much.
I don’t know where time is going!
