The View of a 30-Something Mom of two

Finally Friday!!



 I confess that I had some good news and bad news all in one day. For about 30 minutes I let the bad news boil inside me, I let my mind consume it. It was absolutely terrible. Then I thought to myself why am I letting this bother me, I just had a wonderful day all for one 3 minute phone call to almost ruin it. 


I confess that I am excited for Father’s Day this weekend. My husband deserves a day that we acknowledge him. He works so hard, and I can’t wait to spend this weekend with him. When Bennett woke up this morning, my hubby was already gone. When I put him in the bed with me he started crying, I don’t think he was expecting him to be gone already. We are going to visit him at work today so that will be a nice treat for us all. 


I confess I can’t wait to go to our outdoor shopping area today with cute boutiques and a kids playground and splash pad. I’ve been wanting to go, but today just seems like a good day since the new Paper Source opened up down there today!


I confess I am super excited for a weekend getaway with my Hubby for our anniversary next week. It’s the first time we are leaving Bennett for an overnight trip. I am excited for him to spend lots of time with his Grandma and Pop Pop since they have been gone for a month and a half. 

DIY Sensory Tables
I confess I found a really cute wooden sensory table that I want my dad to build for Bennett. I’m hoping to have it by his birthday!

The sweetest mornings are spent with these three. The sweetest mornings are spent with these three. I love to do our together learning in the morning—which includes @masterbooks and @gospelproject_ devotion. My youngest even joins in for our morning breakfast devotion, and then reads and plays while we complete social studies and science. What’s your special moment each day?
Today my sweet baby turns 8. He has taught my so m Today my sweet baby turns 8. He has taught my so much about being a mother, and I love watching him grow every year. He’s a sweet kid, who loves to be silly. He likes his alone time to play, but also loves when his brother plays with him. He surprises me daily with all the things he knows, and I’m so blessed we’re going on our third year of learning together. He loves his baby sister something big, and she puts up with his shenanigans. We all love to watch him play and grow in baseball, and watching his skills develop over the years has been fun! Happy birthday sweet Bennett! 🎂
I went to school to be a teacher—but I’m kinda I went to school to be a teacher—but I’m kinda liking this mom gig. 💁🏼‍♀️ My baby turns 8 on Sunday and is having his birthday party this weekend. I kept thinking about party favors, and after chatting with some friends about ideas—decided on this! I loved that I wouldn’t be handing out candy or other items that may end up just thrown away. Also, ice cream was always served with cake as a kid so what better way to get your ice cream later 😉
Bless all you kindergarten teachers. Or any of tho Bless all you kindergarten teachers. Or any of those who are telling your students to leave their shoes on and eat a snack (not a meal). Also, any other moms out there that their kid missed their siblings more than you? 🤦🏼‍♀️ oh well, he enjoyed it and his teacher is literally the sweetest thing! How is your first week going? Any case of the kids say the craziest thing? I love the first day of school, and it’s such a special moment to watch and see how each child takes the day and runs with it. 💙

We love making these apple donuts—they are fun for the kids to decorate—add frosting, peanut butter, sprinkles, the list goes on! Kroger now has an amazing new membership that offers FREE next day grocery delivery. They are also giving 2X the fuel points for every dollar spent* on groceries. All of this and much more for $59/Year! We love getting our groceries from Kroger as it saves so much time and money, in more places then just the grocery store.
