34/52 (Halloween)





A lot sure has changed since last Halloween when CJ was barely a month old. Last Halloween she still wasn't very good at nursing and I just got so much anxiety taking her out anywhere because what if she got hungry and I had to try, and possibly fail, at nursing her in public?? I kind of had an irrational fear of her being hungry and me not being able to feed her, it took a while to get over that. 

This Halloween she was walking all over the place! She loved seeing all of the other kids while trick or treating and saw a few puppies which are her favorite.

35/52


Gosh it's been a long time since I've gotten around to posting a weekly picture. I've never been so busy in my life as I have been recently. I read an article recently that talked about how working parents are stretched too thin, and it really spoke to me. There's just not enough time in the day to be a good employee, wife, mother, and friend. Some days I feel like I'm not even doing one of those well enough.

When I let those thoughts consume me I have to take a step back and remember that this is just a season in life. I won't always feel this way, and some days are easier than others. I'm trying to enjoy this stage because someday soon I'll look back and wish CJ was that little again.

Anyway, hopefully I can get caught up on these weekly pictures because I sure do enjoy looking back on them.
