Life Lately #19

9.13.2022

Starting this off with the fact that I maybe have half an hour before Noah wakes from his nap. Life seems to be that way lately … doing things in the pockets of time that I have. Sometimes it feels like I never have any time and then other days, it's the opposite. I'll take it all as they come. It's been a joy nonetheless and very much a season of learning as I'm sure it'll continue to be regardless of where I am. When Noah grows, I feel like I'm learning to grow also, but at his pace and for his season of life. 



So that's how motherhood has been. It's not been an easy embrace, but I'm glad the Lord has softened my heart, as a mom, to see my role as a truly meaningful one in whatever the day holds - like to have incredibly slow mornings because Noah needs my full attention or not getting anything done and not feeling productive, but knowing that nothing is hidden from His sight, so I shouldn't be concerned about the things I am concerned about. My nature wants to go against everything I "have" to do as a mom, but I know I'm only where I'm at because of God's grace in my life. And also, I have a really good partner in Jeff so there's that, too. ;) 



our go-to breakfast lately. a bagel and coffee.



Officially 24 weeks with baby girl and it still feels unreal?! But wow, so thankful she's well and healthy. Tbh, I haven't seen an OB for prenatal care since her 2nd appointment, but ya we're pushing through. I'm getting her little kicks more and more and my gosh, I can just imagine a little girl version of Noah crawling around here within the next few months. When it comes to pregnancy and labor and birthing, etc - I am always mind blown. I think mamas are like the unsung heroes of the world! 





Some recent favorites: 

+ Ningxia red. Still enjoying this drink especially during pregnancy. Nice, cold drinks are a go-to!

+ Dark roast coffee! I love that it's getting colder out now so I can enjoy hot coffee again.

+ My SUNDAYS playlist on Spotify.

+ a good makeup routine. Been loving this foundation
