Ahhh @tubbytodd - How we love you so!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hands down the best bath products I've ever used on the babes + Lily. We all have super sensitive skin plus eczema and this stuff is legit heaven sent for us.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you're a mama who is conscious about what you use on your little ones - you're going to love this line. This company has no clue who I am - this post isn't sponsored or any of that fancy stuff. I'm just a mama who wants to share great products I've found that actually work 🙌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Link in bio for more information on their bath wash, lotions, and all over ointments. I've tried them all and we don't ever go without them!

We have a THIRD grader 👏🏼
.
.
Her backpack is stuffed to the brim, she picked out a bouquet of flowers for her teacher, and we discovered that wears a women’s size six shoe so she’s basically an adult 😭
.
.
She’s in a gifted classroom this year, is obsessed with reading + math, and is thrilled to go back to school. I love this little babe so much and am so proud to be her mama 💛

Sometimes I still pinch myself when I say I'm a mama to three children, and soon to be four 🤣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Basically, this post has been a long time coming. I finally pulled it together so that I could share with you mamas what I tote around in my diaper bag on a daily basis.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's not like a super cute Pinterest styled diaper bag interior - this is the real deal of what I actually carry. I'm sure I'll adjust when we add another babe to our crew, but that's for another day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

These little people can climb on the couches and on the beds all by themselves now. 🤦🏻‍♀️They talk to each other in their own little baby babble language and follow each other around then climb on the furniture together. They've also figured out how to push Lily's bedroom door open and she is insisting that we install a permanent baby gate as added security 😂Soooo basically, nothing is safe anymore and we are screwed 🤣

Lily's starting third grade next week and the babies are basically RUNNING around our house now. Penelope hasn't crawled in days, and Wyatt just wobbles around with his glitchy little Bambi legs and I could eat him for dinner because he's so dang cute.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
--⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So basically, like a logical mom, I tortured myself and went back through old photos and now I'm a puddle. Byeeee 😭

Spent the weekend doing a whole lotta nothing. Our fourth little babe is safe + sound snuggling in my tummy still and we are praising the Lord for protecting us. I'm reminded of how strong our bodies are, and how protective our womb is.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⋒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The OB said I'm okay to resume regular activity, no need for bedrest, and to obviously step up our baby-proofing game so I don't trip and fall in the kitchen again 😬⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⋒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Also: this @dwellandslumber dress that I'm in is literally the softest thing I've ever put on my body and I may or may not have slept in it last night and wore it yesterday too 🤪

Yesterday was really scary 💔
.
.
I was home alone with the kids, finishing cleaning up from lunch with Wyatt on my hip. I tripped over a piece of Tupperware that was on the kitchen floor, and fell - hard. Because I was holding Wyatt and instinctively protected him, I didn’t put my arms down to catch myself. In that moment I was just worried I’d land on him or drop him.
.
.
When we fell, I landed directly on my tummy trying to keep from landing on him. 😞 It sounds dramatic to say, but it felt like I bounced on an actual beach ball when I hit the floor. Thank GOD Wyatt was okay, but I started having belly pain and cramping almost immediately, which terrified me.
.
.
I called Tyler who was at work, and told him what happened. Then I called the OB and they told me to go straight to labor and delivery to be checked out. My mom got to my house within 10 minutes of me calling her and I was taken by ambulance to the hospital because I was cramping pretty bad at that point.
.
.
We got hooked up to the monitors and everything looked alright with baby - PRAISE JESUS 🙌🏼 the plan was to keep me for about six hours and then send us home.
.
.
Unfortunately I started having contractions that were coming close enough together to warrant them giving me a shot to relax my uterus. The OB felt like at that point the safest decision for baby + me was to keep us overnight for monitoring to be cautious.
.
.
I’m so so relieved to say that the contractions slowed throughout the night, baby is still looking good, and we will hopefully be released today to go home. It’s been a whirlwind of 24-hours and we are totally exhausted. If you’re the praying kind, please keep us in your hearts 💛

Since the beginning of this pregnancy, Tyler and I have said that we would keep the gender of our fourth child a surprise until delivery - MAMAS THIS IS SO HARD!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
..⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I didn't think the anticipation would be taunting me this much. So much so that I ended up asking our OB for a sealed envelope with the gender, that way in case I decided I wanted to find out, we could. I basically asked her to like glue it and tape it shut and triple wrap it so I couldn't cheat 🤣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
..⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Did you find out the gender of your children?! Did you leave it a surprise?! Was finding out at delivery super cool?! Ahhhh! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Helppppp me! I don't know what to do! 🤣🙈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Comment below 👇and tell me how you found out and whether you wish you'd had done it differently!
