Hello my moonbeams 🙂 I know you haven’t heard from me in awhile. Life with a toddler (yes I can actually say that now), 1 preteen, 1 teenager, 2 goofy dogs and a traveling husband has been hectic! With summer around the corner, we will have even more happening…which brings me to my main point….I’m going to be more intentional with blogging. I work 2 part-time jobs and while I prioritize those plus taking care of the fam, blogging gets pushed to the bottom! I am turning 30 years old in a few short weeks.

last week: stones, sullivans, stroller barre
Last week …. oooof. It was one of those weeks where I wish I had those Men In Black memory eraser pens. 2 Saturday nights ago, David and I were watching Tyler and Emily play soccer in their indoor co-ed league. Side note – It is so much fun to watch these games – not only do we get to see the kiddos playing their favorite sport together, but indoor soccer is another level of intensity and strategy that you don’t get with outdoor field soccer. Anyway – as we are watching Tyler crush it and Emily play against boys that are 3x her size, David had a huge sharp pain in his left lower…
