Little man is so good at climbing these days that I think he may actually enjoy going to a rock climbing gym—he started out barely being able to climb onto the low platform and now he’s practically dangling from underneath!

He certainly keeps me on my toes 🤯

The last three months have been insane!

I have been in full blown hustle mode, often choosing work over sleep, and certainly not spending as much time with the children as I used to since my husband took over as the stay at home parent (more on that soon!). I am absolutely ready to slow down before busy season starts as the weather starts to warm up. And create boundaries. For myself. 

So I have set a goal to sit down with my phone every night before my bedtime routine and pick a photo from the day (or week) to post with a story of something that made me happy with the family. 

And yes, I will still be posting about the wins and struggles of raising a family and a business at the same time—make that two!

Finally got so annoyed that planners never seem to have what I need in them, so I made my own. And because I crave pen to paper commitment, I draw it all by hand in my bullet journal and use my hyperfixation for productive purposes. This way I can add things as I need them, and update the digital document to print next year. 

Do you use a bullet journal or planner?
