It's Real Life

For the past week and a half I have not felt like myself. The house was a disaster

(I have been working on B's birthday invitations and it is taking up my whole dining table), I didn't cook much AT ALL, I have had a million things on my To Do list and if I didn't write it down then it didn't get done. I have had the worst scatter brain on earth!

Some days I feel like super mom & wife! I LOVE those days that I feel like I have accomplished so much. It makes me happy to feel like I've got "stuff" together!

Taking a step back for a moment and just feeling all of these emotions makes me realize that I have set such a high standard for myself and our home. If I cannot maintain it all,it puts me in a funk. I want to be able to do EVERYTHING on my own but I am realizing that some days I just can't and I need to accept it.

Today I am finally feeling more myself despite this weather! Rain rain go away!

B and I ran a ton of errands, he was a champ!

I cleaned the house, laundry is almost caught up, I made homemade chicken pot pie for dinner, invites are still being worked on, my love is home safe, baby is asleep for the night and mama has wine to drink!

Life is amazing and I am so grateful for all of our blessings! Whether the house is clean or not, we are truly lucky to be healthy and living a beautiful life.
