Oh BABYmoon

February 3, 2014 · In: BABY, Motherhood, Travel, Uncategorized

Thank you so much for your awesome comments, likes and encouragement this past week while we were on vacation! It feels so great! I tried to respond during but had some technical difficulties and caught up this weekend. 

This cruise started in Puerto Rico and was a whirlwind of 5 different Carribean Islands. Here’s the Siboney Beach Club in Antigua. This was one of our favorite places. It was a small restaurant/bar with palapa roofing, a few beach chairs, umbrellas and calm waters.

I’m a little fleshier than I used to be. This photo is entitled, “Keiko the Killer Whale Goes to the Caribbean.” #nofilter.IMG_3397This was a last minute trip and since I’m too cheap to buy a maternity suit, I found this “tummy camouflage” suit at Marshalls for $24.99. It was basically like a wetsuit with like 3 layers of fabric and LOTS of rouching in the torso but it did the trick. It however required 14 hours to completely dry. 

Here’s Chris as we sit for some lunch.

Due to jet lag, we were up at 5:30 a.m. yesterday and I was off to cleaning and organizing the house with a new fervor. Here’s to an extra OCD few months ahead! I feel so lucky to have a husband who is SO into vacations.

    Aw! I’m so glad you had such a wonderful vacation! You guys totally deserve it!! I’ve only been to Puerto Rico, but I can only imagine how beautiful the rest of the Caribbean islands are!! However, i don’t know if I can do cruises…I get seasick! Oh, and I’m totally OCD too, I write this as I just finished cleaning my office desk from head to toe.:)

      Thank you! I used to get sick on the big Navy ship I was on too! That was awkward. Luckily the cruise ships are pretty steady and if you get a lot of stops you really are only on the seas at night! Amen to OCD sisters!!!

Comment READ and I’ll tell you where this motherho Comment READ and I’ll tell you where this motherhood stress comes from and what I’m doing that’s made me so much happier.

This is for my overachievers!

Once I realized what was going on underneath all of the over planning and prevention, I found a way to relax more.

Comment read and I’ll send it to you.
I had to believe that no matter what I was looking I had to believe that no matter what I was looking at in front of me (a dusty ranch style house that looked like an abandoned outpost), this could be my dream house. 

I kept reassuring myself that it could happen even though I had no idea how that would be possible unless I completely rebuilt the house.

Then I let it just sort of appear as I kept staring at the house.

Staring as a big part of having the vision come to you.

It took many years, but I’m very excited to come down the driveway each day.

paint and lime wash were absolutely transformational for the exterior renovation. 

As we play around the house, or drink coffee outside, I look at the house fondly and appreciate the beauty and how it serves us. 

Changing your beliefs we’ll set off a chain reaction for beautiful things to come.
Comment REWIRE and I’ll send it to you. I decided Comment REWIRE and I’ll send it to you.

I decided it was time to focus on my health so I started exercising and by week 3 I was quitting-this is from someone who used to be in the military and loves fitness.

Being a mom is different!

I decided to start with mindset. I did a specific technique and weight loss started and just got easier.

Being healthy became automatic.

I didn’t need more hours in the day and it wasn’t another job to add to my list.
I started this window treatment transformation yea I started this window treatment transformation years ago and I’ve been avoiding this part ever since. 

I finally ordered this curtain rod from the same company in a different size, but the color ended up being the wrong “gold/brass” tone.

Then I ordered these curtains and the color is not at all how I expected. I was thinking fresh spring and these have a dustier tone. Gorgeous just not the same vibe I had imagined.

It’s taking imperfect action that gives you clarity.

I could scroll until the cows came home but I just had to start with something physical I could look at and decide if it was a go or not.

Tell me what you think in the comments! I’llsend you all the details of this project.
This summer I took a break from keeping up with my This summer I took a break from keeping up with my own high expectations and then a newsletter that I write in the margins of my life ended up on a list with authors I’ve admired for years.

Coincidence?

“Top 100 Rising in Faith and Spirituality,” on Substack.
For a hot second I was a list with the author of Eat, Pray, Love! What!

I have to constantly retrain my mind to know that good things happen no matter what. I don’t have to toil to have what I want.

Yes, we have to signal to the world what we want to attract but it doesn’t have to feel like a burden. 

We create the reality we experience.

What would you allow yourself to receive if you believed that you were allowed to rest?
