Mommas, The time is upon us – swimsuit season. When I was packing for our year long adventure in the trailer, I had packed the suits I had purchased when pregnant. I’d bought nicer quality, better material suits and justified the purchase as none of them were maternity suits so I could wear them postpartum […]
I think back to this past (almost) year of motherhood and I am so so thankful for my partner. Actually, I should back that up even farther – the past two years if I count my pregnancy. I am so grateful. I want to give the biggest hug to all the single mommas out there doing […]
