Mommyhood

-




First of all, let me start off by saying how grateful I am that I get to stay home with my girls. I feel extremely blessed that I am afforded that luxury. With that being said, I feel lost. For the last 7+ years I have been a stay at home mom. While it's been fun and rewarding, it's also been lonely. Since my kids have been born, it's all about them. ALL.OF.THE.TIME. I have definitely let myself go, and my needs/wants have been put on the back burner. I am in a rut, and I don't know how to get out of it. 

SO, I am giving myself a make-over. I need to bring the old, fun, and sassy Amy back. Starting NOW, I am going to dig my way out of this rut. It may take a while, but I am determined to do it. 

Wish me luck!




PS. any mommies out there feel like this? If so, join me. Get out of your rut. Bring the old you back! :)

Hi Amy! Thanks for being so open and honest. It's funny because I'm a working mom and I have been feeling like I'm in a rut too...I am so torn as to whether I should continue working or stay home with my kiddos. Right now, it's not really an option but I just feel a pressing on my heart that something's gotta give :). So I'm in a similar boat, just not the exact same one :). I can't wait to hear all about your new, positive changes!!!

State Fair of Texas

A few weekends ago, we went to the fair. It was super crowded, but the weather was perfect. The girls had a blast riding rides, eating fair food, and looking at all the animals. Harper was so good. She slept the majority of the time, but when she was awake, she just played in her little bassinet. I think she enjoyed the fresh air. ;)

Texas Tech v. Texas Longhorns

My husband is from New Deal, Texas {a very TINY town around the corner from Lubbock - Ha!}. He went to Tech and is a HUGE Tech football fan. Up until this year, my 4 yr old, Rylee has followed in her daddy's footsteps. She loved the Red Raiders and would always have her "guns up!" Not too long ago, she informed her daddy that she QUIT the Red Raiders and is now a Longhorn! A daddy's heart was broken on that summer night. {yes, she goes around with her horns in the air and yes, her daddy cringes!} Can't wait to see what happens tonight when the Red Raiders play the Longhorns. Will she have her "guns up" or her "horns" up? We shall see.... Until next time...... xoxo
