Hello, sweet ones! How is your Friday, and what’s on tap this weekend? Let me know in the comments! Also if you are the person in charge of sending this box to my house REVEAL YOURSELF because the mystery is driving me crazy (also did I just teach you how to f*ck with friends?? Yes. Yes, I did). LOL, I love you, mystery person 🙂
Let’s dive into this week’s gratitude, and hope to catch you on the flipside! XOXO

- My gift to myself on International Women’s Day this year was to drop a pump session. Mila is almost a year old now and my goal was to make it that long with breast milk. Going from four pumps a day to three is legitimately saving my sanity and I am so happy to have a bit more time to myself in the day
- Glorious, no enormous puffy winter coat, let’s-take-another-walk-together, sunshine-filled days
is it just me, or are they starting to make the same facial expressions? This one is complete disapproval of my lunchtime snack apparently - Healthy food delivery when inspiration fails
- Manicures and afternoons to myself
- Celebrating Bryan’s niece’s birthday. I love seeing the sisters grow into their big-girl personalities <3
- This book. I got it after seeing the author on a daytime talk show and she mentioned that most people don’t have diversity in their baby libraries and that children are more likely to see pets as protagonists in their books than POC. Also the story is so beautiful and heartwarming and I’m feeling this way so much now.
Oh my goodness! Charlotte is adorable! I can’t believe Charlotte is about to be a year old! I’m glad you’re getting some sunshine and nice weather. I’m so over winter and I’m ready for spring. I’ll have to check that book out.
I so need to know the mystery as well! Reveal yourself, person!
As for the pumping session, congrats! I have a pump but I don’t use it at all because it was a disaster for me. However, dropping nursing sessions gives an amazing sense of freedom.
I love that package’s note. Hopefully you’ll figure out who sent it soon! I love the faces Mila and Milo are making in that photo. Too funny! And good for you for going down to pumping three times a day instead of four. It’s great you made it a year breastfeeding and giving yourself a bit of personal time back is awesome!
