6 Months With Kate

A few hours ago we got home from Kate’s 6 month well-check appointment. Everything was all good! Her growth and development are both on point, and she got her next round of shots (always fun). We played upstairs for a bit, and now she’s napping. Her afternoon nap is typically her longest, so I’m hoping she gives me another few minutes of peace so I can get this post scheduled. A big reason why I started this blog was to chronicle my memories with Kate, but I’ve been slacking lately. I haven’t done an “X Months with Kate” update since she turned 3 months old! Aside from being busy (which isn’t a good excuse because we’re all busy), sometimes I overthink the blog content. Not everything has to be “perfect” and not every post is going to be one a larger audience wants to read. And that’s okay! First and foremost, the blog is for me and our family. So more posts about Kate it is!

Happy Friday! 🥳 Y’all Kate turns 6 months old tomorrow. 😩 I can’t even handle it. It flew by. Everyone warned me it would and it has and it’s wild. What’s cool though is she’s starting to be more interactive and fun. Honestly babies are kind of just bumps on a log for a while. 😅 Obviously you still love them through the boring (but adorable) newborn phase, but they really are much more enjoyable to hang out with all day once they start babbling and giggling. It’s been fun. Also, I decided I’m going to start doing highs and lows on here. It’s an easy way to share about my week + allows me to keep it real while giving me an outlet to maybe complain a little. Sometimes a girl just needs to complain! So here we go…

It’s almost been 2 full months since my last Liz List. Yikes! 😬 Certainly not intentional, but sometimes life gets in the way. It’s honestly been a weird couple of months for me, personally. Don’t worry… nothing too bad! I’m just working through the normal new mom emotions surrounding this life transition into motherhood, and it’s had me a bit distracted from the blog. I’m actually working on a blog post about it right now, but since it’s more personal and involves lots of feelings it’s taking me a bit to finish it up. More to come!

The Liz List - August 16, 2019

Happy Friday, everyone! Last night my aunt and grandmother arrived from Houston. They’re staying at our house with my mom to watch Kate while David and I travel to Las Vegas for a little weekend getaway. As I mentioned on Instagram this week, this will be the first time both of us are leaving her, so it’s definitely a MOMENT for us as parents. I have been away from her for one night before, but David was with her at home so - until now - one of us has always been with her overnight. We’ll miss her, but I know she’s in good hands. And honestly, a couple days in Vegas sounds pretty nice right now!
