It can be quite exhausting, and it doesn't get any easier as they grow, they stop spitting up and start rubbing creams on all your furniture lol, I actually just did a blog post regarding that on http://breathelivebeauty.blogspot.co.ukIneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919589333823802667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167493062012902048.post-58080329677451906502015-09-30T13:09:17.562-04:002015-09-30T13:09:17.562-04:00Hi Jen,
I am designing a room for a client and I ...Hi Jen,<br /><br />I am designing a room for a client and I thought of suggesting one of your frames. I still read your blog and follow you on Instagram. I am just quieter now because life is so darn busy.<br /><br />I completely understand what you're saying. As you know, I have three kids and honestly, I don't remember the last time I wasn't tired. I am CONSTANTLY TIRED and wishing I could go somewhere where I could relax and forget about all the errands and responsibilities. But this is life. I feel we're very Blessed for having the beautiful life and kids God gave us, but it's completely normal to feel overwhelmed at times. <br /><br />In regards to having kids in a big city... you will feel a little "left out" at times, get some looks, notice when people think "a kid, here?", but who cares? Don't give a "blah blah blah" about them. Live your life, embrace your love for your son and simply ignore or say what's in your mind about people like that.<br /><br />One thing I have learned after I turned 35... I am not afraid of speaking my mind if someone is crossing a line. Own your space and protect yours. Things tend to get better when you have this attitude. <br /><br />I feel so happy when I see pictures of you and your baby. I know you wished and prayed for this moment, Jen. <br /><br />Life is never easy, but it's good. :)<br /><br />Lots of love to you and your little one.<br /><br />Luciane from HomeBunch.com<br /><br />Luciane at HomeBunch.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09244771681186762053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167493062012902048.post-89419226138508482015-09-29T10:23:41.069-04:002015-09-29T10:23:41.069-04:00I have 2 kids, i finish my days too exhaustedI have 2 kids, i finish my days too exhaustedLa Casa Atelierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01042882666604672605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167493062012902048.post-22225712448506824062015-09-26T02:09:25.931-04:002015-09-26T02:09:25.931-04:00So, that girl in Starbuck's sounds like she wa...So, that girl in Starbuck's sounds like she wasn't a mom nor did she have a kind heart. I would have grabbed napkins and ran over to help. That's the mama in me, lol. <br />Maybe she was having a bad day. We never know what others are going through. <br />When people are like that near to me, I remind myself to pray for them (as much as I want to stick out my tongue at them). Not only does it calm my heart, but maybe that person really needs prayer in the moment.<br />Anyhoo ~ try to get Starbuck's in alone, even if it's just once in awhile, when you can. Little "alone time" breaks are needed!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06509303945625515558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167493062012902048.post-77829058961886882372015-09-25T11:53:35.867-04:002015-09-25T11:53:35.867-04:00Hi, I can totally relate to your post!

Especially when you had so much time by yourself. I get it. I say that maybe once a week, your hubby could watch the little guy while you go to Starbucks by yourself just to recharge your batteries. It is good for the soul :)<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809229901671387262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167493062012902048.post-91718089420900366392015-09-24T20:42:55.486-04:002015-09-24T20:42:55.486-04:00lifebeginsatthirty: iM starting to see that more &...lifebeginsatthirty: iM starting to see that more & more. I think there's a stigma that comes with a baby and a stroller. I know i used to think "oh great. now we are going to hear a noisy kid" But its all how the parents discipline their children. If they let them go crazy they will act crazy..and i can see why that would bother some people. <br />Hopefully that will not be me!Jen of MadeByGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16679479589202186024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167493062012902048.post-81669548084229690352015-09-24T20:33:29.315-04:002015-09-24T20:33:29.315-04:00Love real life posts :) But seriously... how rude ...Love real life posts :) But seriously... how rude of that person to give you a nasty look!

Strollers in the city seem to make everyone either give side eye or become absolutely blind. When I was working, ppl would hold doors open for me regularly. With a stroller? It is like I don't exist.<br /><br />I'm glad you didn't get flustered. Just wipe the puke, change the pants, and eat your sandwich :-)LifeBegins@Thirtyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16031156921598156745noreply@blogger.com
