Man life was different 2 years ago. Do you ever feel like you miss something but you also don't want it back? I love our life now, too. We don't currently have any toddlers in the house (for now) but I love who my kids are, I love who Josh and I are, and I'm content with that. Sometimes I wish I could revisit these moments tho..

#ad Do you ever worry about what's happening to your skin under your mask but you just try not to think about it because you're just trying to do your part and be a good citizen?? I know I've noticed breakouts where my mask rests on my face and I was so excited when I found a fix..

Shikō Beauty Collective (@shikobeautyco), an online marketplace that just launched in the US (!!!) is a go-to for all things Japanese skincare. Their products highlight what Japanese traditional beauty is about: what we put on our skin and body contributes to our overall health.

INMASK SALON With Mask Point Pack (Sittori), available at Shikō Beauty Collective, protects skin from breakouts, and most importantly, those caused by frequent mask-wearing.

INMASK SALON With Mask Point Pack (Sittori) not only protects skin from breakouts and makes wrinkles and pores inconspicuous, it also fits to your face perfectly to care for the eyes, nose, and chin.

INMASK SALON With Mask Point Pack (Sittori) can even be applied while wearing a face mask to maximize its use and self-care benefits OR over makeup! The heart-shaped mask is not only cute, but verrryy practical.

In this adoption process, we're in the education p

In this adoption process, we're in the education phase and it's teaching us a lot about parenting as a whole. A lot of things I've felt or suspected but are now being confirmed by the experts ha.

For example, we can think of kids like a bank. They need affection deposits all throughout the day. And then if/when you ask them to do something they don't want to do (aka make a "withdrawal") they need to have a full account or they're going to start to break down. It happens with kids who have experienced trauma but I think it happens with all kids to be honest.

I've known for a long time that our kids go to bed easier at night when I've been more intentional during the day, but that doesn't mean I make that happen every time.

I'm thankful that there's so much research that has been done on child development and we're now in a situation where we're required to study it. Personally, I love learning about this stuff!

Happy birthday Evy! How is our YOUNGEST already FOUR?? We had such a fun day celebrating our girl 💕

Since moving to SC, all we've wanted to do is show it off to our friends and family! 2020 was for sure not the year for that...

BUT I recently met Samantha (@samantharaisingwildflowers), a mom of 3 gorgeous girls from Tennessee, and I get to show off SC to her virtually!! Samantha and her family LOVE the outdoors which is perfect because we spend so much of our time exploring outside. SC definitely has the weather for it!

Over the next few weeks, I'm going to be sending Samantha a care package of some of my favorite local SC goodies as well as sharing with her some of our favorite things to do & outdoor activities right here in Greenville so she knows some great spots to hit when she and her family are able to visit #yeahthatgreenville. Stay tuned!

The other day I suprised Josh with this necklace. Usually I wear jewelry that represents the kids but this time I wanted something that was a symbol of our love - of our promise to each other. I was suprised that when he saw it, he gave me a hug and said he really liked it. I could tell he really meant it. I didn't realize that it would mean that much to him. Thank you @relleryofficial for this beautiful piece that reminds me of my best friend ❤️ (swipe)

A month ago, I couldn't drop this girl off for an hour on Sundays at Sunday school. BUT - since being in preschool the last month, yesterday she walked into Sunday school, put her hand on another little girl's back, said hi, and sat down next to her. Now I'm starting to be kinda jelly of her social confidence 😆

Guys. I finished the paper work 🙌🏼 Now I can only hope it's all correct 😅 Honestly such a weight off, though. I've been trying to train myself to just start the things that overwhelm me because I have a bad habit of putting stressful things off for weeks and feeling the weight of it the entire time. I highly recommend NOT doing that 😂

I felt pretty convicted recently because I was really dragging my feet getting the last few adoption documents in (bc I was overwhelmed by the complexity of them).But I realized that every day longer it took me to turn it in, it could literally change who we are matched with and the fate of our family & son forever so..
I'm determined to get this paperwork done tonight! 🙏

I woke up feeling grateful today.
Grateful that the sun is out and the weather's getting warmer.
Grateful that Evy was kicking me in bed.
Grateful to know Josh would be home from his workout soon and we'd get to talk.
Grateful for fun projects at work.
Grateful that our sweet neighbors dropped off hand me down bikes for the kids that they were so excited about.
Aaand grateful that it's Friday.
All the things ❤️
