Priscilla at six months

5th Feb ' 19

{Priscilla’s onesie is from Swanky Shank on Etsy}

She loves | When Seth goes and gets her from her crib in the morning, reading stories before bedtime, trying new foods {bacon was a hit!}, looking at herself in the mirror, playing with her crinkly toys, her giraffe lovey, and sitting in her borrowed bouncy seat from her little friend Emma {thanks for the loan, Springmans!}.

She detests | Not much, she is our happy girl!

Whats new | We’ve been staying cozy inside due to #PolarVortex2019 and cold & flu season. As a result we’re been having fun with all the toys Priscilla is suddenly interested in, her johnny jump up, and play gym. She loves to “help” with cooking and baking and is utterly fascinated by everyday kitchen chores. She suddenly noticed Astro and reaches for him and loves to “pet” him, though she’s a little rough and grabs his fur. She is full of smiles, giggles, and has so much joy.


I’d love to see you over on Instagram, follow along with my daily photos here: 


Sharing my heart on moving from the city on the blog this morning. ⁣
⁣
“Much of my identity has been wrapped up in being a city dwelling lady and mama. I take quite a bit (maybe too much) pride in not being “basic,” as if enjoying things many others do is a sin. It’s not. I don’t believe I’ll ever be cookie cutter, but I’m finding myself settling in and loving non city life quite a bit. It doesn’t hurt, this magical house. I’ve longed for and wanted to live in an old home for my entire adult life. I love Victorians. This particular house has so many unique, interesting, lovely features that it would be impossible not to adore it [...]” ⁣

e l e v e n MONTHS | I still can scarcely believe it. Wasn’t she just born six, four, two months ago?!? The mama time warp is real and it feels too much like that scene in Interstellar when part of the crew has been gone minutes but that one man waited years 👀 Priscilla is 100 percent of whatever: loves to eat, nurses still 🙌🏽, big into clapping, learned how to wave, likes to take her bows out and then tries to put them back in, adores when da-da comes come, and is my little intense co-worker. I’m so in love. 🐳


right on the cusp of crawling and full of wonder for the living room curtains 👧🏻


I’d be lying if I said the bathtubs with window light didn’t sell me on this house 💁🏽‍♀️👏🏽 making all my bath session dreams come true!
