Owen is 1!

I can’t believe that my baby, my last baby, turns 1 today! I know it’s so cliché and everyone says it, but it’s true: our babies really do grow up too quick. We had his 1st Birthday Party this past Saturday, so stay tuned for some jungle party fun, but I wanted to share some quick pics for his 1st birthday.

This is our first picture of Owen. I do regret not having someone take a pic of all 3 of us. I see tons of pics like that where mom is still on the table, but most moms having c-sections probably weren’t screaming in pain the majority of time.

Celebrate Mini Milestones with Netflix

I am a member of the Netflix Stream Team and received a Netflix subscription and a streaming device in return for posting Netflix updates and reviews. However, all opinions are my own and we were Netflix users prior to joining the Stream Team.

This is our first month as a Netflix Stream Team member! I’m very excited to share new Netflix finds, crafts, recipes and more with you every month!

At this point in our lives, we’ve accomplished quite a few milestones: get married, buy a house, and have a baby. I love that as parents now, we get to experience all the mini milestones x2!

This spring, Charlie started baseball and I remember how exciting it was for his first baseball game! And just last month he started preschool!

Celebrating Mini Milestones

We love curling up on the couch (or often the floor) to watch movies or tv shows on Netflix. I love that Netflix has something so easily relatable to many of these mini milestones!

9 Months of Breastfeeding

This post contains breastfeeding pictures and affiliate links.

Last week we hit the 9 month mark of breastfeeding! There were times in the beginning I did not think that was going to be an option at all. It was definitely a struggle during that time, but I’m so glad that we toughed it out and sought help to make sure we were successful.

I’ve been asked “how long are you going to nurse him?” and my response is “no idea”. I honestly hope that he self-weans somewhere around a year, but if not, that’s okay by me. He really only nurses about 6 or so times a day at this point and if he wants to nurse before bed after he hits that magic year mark that everyone seems to think is the end, that’s okay.
