As someone who runs a business out of their home, there are certain things I cannot compromise on.
Working at home takes a lot of preparation, equipment, and patience. You have to prevent as many problems as possible, but also be prepared for things to go wrong. If I’m working on a deadline, I’d hate for the wifi to stop working or the power to go out. I don’t have time for that!
There are 3 things that I could not live without while working at home!
Ah, pregnancy.
One of the most stressful things a woman can go through, and yet, we take away her wine. It’s a cruel rule.
I’ve also got a bit of a sweet tooth (plus a pretty intense ice craving), so sometimes I like to make fun mocktails!
Today I’m sharing my recipe for Bubbly Pomegranate Lemonade here’s what you’ll need:
I can’t believe I’m 24 weeks! I would say this pregnancy is flying by but it’s not. I have actually been pregnant forever and still have a long ways to go.
How far along? 24 weeks
How big is baby? Baby is the size of a grapefruit!
Symptoms? Heartburn, fatigue, pelvic pressure/pain, headaches, braxton hicks, “pregnancy cold”
Cravings? ICE.
Gender? It’s a boy!

Like most families, we own two cars. But, unlike most families, we really only use one of them. One car is brand new (just drove it off the lot last August), runs great and we LOVE it. The other car I bought when I was in college, long before we were married, and that’s pretty much on its last leg. It runs, and since I mainly work at home blogging, we don’t need to drive it much.
This works out for the most part since I’m pretty busy at home but I definitely go a little stir crazy sometimes. Sawyer and I don’t get to go on a lot of “adventures” because there’s not a ton close by and I don’t feel comfortable driving the scary car down into the city.
There are lots of things I have to prepare for when it comes to going from 1 kiddo to 2. One thing I’ve been thinking about a lot is being out and about with them.
The other day Kurtis, Sawyer, and I were our running a particular errand and things got a little stressful. One thing after another went wrong and it was just a long day. When we got home I said to him “can you imagine dealing with that but with two kids with us?”
It kind of put things into perspective that things are about to get a lot more difficult around here.
But it’s nothing we can’t handle with a little preparation!

I’m hoping baby #2 is not a much of a “learning experience” as baby #1. Being a new mom is a huge adjustment that I don’t think anyone can really prepare for beforehand. No matter how much research you do, you’re still learning on the job.
But that’s in the past for me. I’ve been there. I’ve done the sleepless nights before. I’ve tried all the recommended tips, tricks, and products, and know which ones actually work for me. I’m hoping I’m better prepared this time, simply due to the fact that I’ve done this before.

I did not use this product while pregnant.
Self care is so important. It’s about more than just vanity. It’s about taking time to pamper yourself, take care of yourself, and feel good about yourself.
I know as a Mom, it’s hard to make yourself a priority and take time for yourself. I know it’s hard for me. But I’m also the best Mom when I’m feeling my best. When I’m confident and happy. It makes me feel a lot better if I do simple hair and make up, exercise, paint my nails, and even whiten my teeth!

It’s one of my favorite times of year! The start of every new season brings a new FabFitFun box, and the Spring one did not disappoint.
Seriously, I think this is my favorite box so far. It had some amazing stuff! And it’s making me so excited for Spring to be here. Warmer weather, picnics, park days, and more! I love this time of year. The Spring box came equipped with so many great things, I can’t rave enough about it. I loved everything.
If you’re already a member and still waiting for your box (and like surprises), stop reading! If you’re wondering what’s in the box/if it’s worth the cost, keep going, I’m going to share everything it comes with!
Hello lovelies!
Happy Friday! What do you have planned this weekend? We’re hoping to relax and catch up on some much needed sleep. Sawyer kept me up until 4:00am this morning before I finally got to sleep, who knows why. But, I am feeling it today!
#Momlife, am I right?
The other night I had the opportunity to check out a new spa in Lone Tree, CO with the Colorado Blogger Babes and had an amazing time! I wanted to share some photos with everyone.
