The View of a 30-Something Mom of two

Finally Friday


This week was the longest, and I am so glad that it is finally the weekend. This week was super busy and it feels like Monday was a month ago. We have a lot going on this month, and this next week is jammed packed. Without further ado here are my confessions…

I confess that I tried searching like 20,000 consignment stores before just biting the bullet and buying Bennett new PJ’s from Carters. 

I buy a lot of Bennett’s clothes resell, and I don’t even care that I am admitting that. I don’t mind buying something nice brand new for pics or something, but buying a onesie brand new just can’t be justified usually. I do buy him stuff from the Gap when I see a great deal, I just bought him 4 new 18-24 month onesies that were only $4 each. Could not pass that up. 

I confess that in March I had a mole removed, and never received a call so I figured all was good. 

Well I received certified mail today saying they tried calling and they need to biopsy more of the area. Say WHAT?! I guess I forgot to change my number when it got changed last year. Keep me in your prayers this week when I get it biopsied. 

I confess that I am excited for our vacation in a few weeks. 

We will finally get to see our family in Ohio, who we haven’t seen since November. Bennett has changed a lot since then, so this will be a lot of fun for all of us! Any tips on flying with a 9 month old?


I confess I am pretty excited we have more company visiting. 

I love when people visiting, because I kinda like to be a tourist in my own backyard. Tomorrow we will venture out to Frenchy’s in Clearwater, and just enjoy some fresh air and sunshine. Frenchy’s is right on the beach, and I want to get there early to get a patio seat! 

I confess I will have a 9 month old this next week!

This past week was 38 weeks, and it just insane to me that I carried him for 38 weeks and he has been out for 38 weeks. Be looking for a 9 month update on Thursday!


I confess that I felt like a kid again seeing Beauty and the Beast at The Straz Center. 

My inlaws got my husband and I tickets to see the show for an early Mother’s Day gift. We were only 3 rows back, and I am pretty sure my eyes lit up like I was 5 years old again. Such a beautiful story!

A little story behind this picture. 📸 I asked m A little story behind this picture. 📸 I asked my son to take a picture of me and my daughter, he took ONE picture. When I asked him why he only took one picture he said well you said “A picture” and plus you look happy in this one. 💓 I am almost one year postpartum, when I saw the picture I quickly was disgusted with my deflated boobs, and just overall didn’t like it. After his comment though, my thoughts changed. I just had fun playing in the pool with the kids, and the deflated boobs I saw—they provided for my three sweet babies. My life changed when I had this sweet girl, I can’t explain it—but I want her to love her body. I want her to like the picture that her brother took because she looked happy. It’s so important that we teach our children to love themselves the way they were made. 💓
