The View of a 30-Something Mom of two

Finally Friday!


Is it Friday already? I’m not complaining, but I am kind of shocked that this week literally flew by. I had a super busy week and am excited for our weekend ahead. Time for some confessions. 

I confess that I am so excited to have Bennett’s first birthday pictures taken this weekend. I chose to have them done 3 weeks early so we could have them ready for his birthday to post online. It will be really fun to watch his reaction to the cake that we give him. I’m sure he will love it! 

I confess I got to go on a trip to Hobby Lobby to shop for items for Bennett’s birthday party. Our closest Hobby Lobby is about 35 minutes away, and I hate going all that way by myself so I had a friend join and left my sweet boy at home with grandma. I got some great stuff, and can’t wait to share all of my goodies!

I confess that I am nerdy. I read that NASA found a planet that is very similar to Earth and could be inhabitable. I love everything space and dinosaurs. This news right here was shared with my husband as soon as he got home.  

I confess I am excited to start teaching in just a few weeks. It’s going to be a little different actually waking up and having to get a move on it, but I think it’s going to be awesome working with 2.5 to 3.5 year olds. I am going to learn so much from them. 

I confess I am super excited to do two giveaways in the coming weeks. Make sure and come back Thursday to check it out!

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 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 😉

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.
