So what I have been up to? Well I have decided to start becoming a minimalist and massively downsized our belongings. It is beyond freeing to have so much less organized clutter and all the things you are keeping for someday. Now I actually have more time to enjoy my family and the one hobby I do love of sewing. I mean why do any of us need 40 shirts and 15 pairs of pants when we wear 15 shirts and 3 pairs of pants regularly? Why do we need 100s of books if we only read 20 in a year?... This idea spans so much more than even that. If you’re interested in a life with less stuff or stress and better relationships I urge you to look into it. You can be a minimalist and have stuff. But it’s stuff you find value and passion in. Love the Minimal Mom, Joshua Becker and Darci Isabelle on YouTube!
Also you may notice the weight fluctuations. The end of November we had a miscarriage which I was about 8 weeks along and wasn’t aware before it happened as I had been having all kinds of weird issues with my periods. But now we are expecting again September 24th! I’m just a little over 13 weeks along now. Very excited to be welcoming another member to our family. My husband is still finishing school and planning to graduate with his Bachelors and Masters in December. He is working so much right now as it gets warmer so that leaves me caring for the kids a lot by myself. Plus I started working a part time job looking at anywhere from 5-10 hours a week cleaning. While it’s not a lot every bit helps! It’s nice to have the opportunity to be flexible with it and earn some money before our next kid when I will stay at home all the time again.
