Five Months with Baby L

It’s a tale as old as time with this month’s princess theme being Beauty and the Beast! We dressed up as Belle, Beast, and Gaston for a day at the parks to celebrate our girl!

These are some of the updates and lessons we learned from this past month:

Teething Has Begun
Baby L has started the teething process and eating solids - and this phase is not for the weak. I’m doing my best to soothe her and I’ve mainly left the messy eating for Kev to deal with and clean up (I wish I was joking, but I’m being so for real).

Scheduling Me Time
For my sanity, I do my best to make time for myself to get out of the house at least once a week, even if it’s just a quick 10 minute solo trip to Miniso to get a new blind box.

Screen Time vs. Quality Time
It’s a bit alarming for me to realize how much time I spend on my phone, and seeing how locked in Baby L can be on my screens is a reminder for me to put the phone down and focus on quality time with her instead.

It’s the Little Things
Seeing Baby L start to respond back to me with sweet babbles or her gummy smile melts my heart! These are the moments I especially cherish and wish I could keep in my memory forever.
