The way it is, more or less.

More laundry.
More mess.
More late nights.
More meltdowns.

Less patience.
Less crafting.
Less blogging.
Less me time.

More US time.
Still figuring this all out..


**ps: Thanks for all the sweet comments on the photo! It's my favorite of D and I, ever. LA did a great job. xo**

  2. I've been feeling that same way, but different circumstances. I recently graduated from college and my boyfriend and I decided to move two hours north of Portland, to Bangor (Maine). Portland is a big city and Bangor is a suburban little town with a mall and lots of chain restaurants, not much else to do. Bands don't travel this far north to play concerts, there is little to no night life here, and no art community whatsoever. Portland has it all and I miss it.

    I feel like all I'm doing is working, and when I come home it's the television or bed. The same for Justin. And when we do do something, it's usually something for him, and not so much for me -- mostly because what I like to do is something that Bangor can't offer. That and if I work on anything art related, it has no relevance to anyone up here.

    I'm trying to figure it all out, too. I wish you good luck!

  3. Adorable. So cute. Oh, and thank you so much for my vintage sunglasses and goodies. I had been meaning to send a thank you note, but this post also looks like my house. :) Love your blog!

  6. Hang in there. We have a 6 and a 4 year old and there are days when I have to force them to go play in another room to give me space to breathe. Then I remember that in the not-so-far-away future I'll have to beg them to spend time with me.

    I hope you find great balance and enjoy this time with your sweet babies.

  7. Hang in there. You're not alone. I have a 5 year old, 1 year old, and twins on the way any day now. Just when you think you get into a good groove, it all changes. Just go with the flow and ride the waves...and it will all work out.

  9. I feel you. It's all learning and it's just a season. I just keep telling myself that. I'm sure you do too. I think of all the times I felt like life was never going to settle down and we wouldn't get the hang of new/old/balancing all things and then a few months later looking backing and feeling so victorious that we made it through! I hope this for you.

    Oh and I LOVE the blanket!
