Motivational Monday: Mother's Day

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day.  It was my first celebration as a Mom and I felt overwhelmingly mushy about being a Mom, appreciating my own  mother not only as my Mom but as Gavin's grandmother (Babci).  I realized that no matter how old you are and how many kids you have of your own, you will always need your mama! 

I am so thankful to have such a supportive and amazing mother as well as have the most adorable, silly, and fun-loving son to call me Mom!

Happy Mother's Day!

Ever After,

Jamie

Denim + Diapers

I have two diaper bags because one is more functional but let's be honest- most of those "functional" diaper bags are so boring.  I got neural gray one in the beginning because I wanted Daddy to be able to carry around the diaper bag without feeling like he's carrying a handbag.  But, I also wanted a cute one for myself on days that Gavin and I go out in style.  I was so happy with my recent diaper bag purchase, this Hip Cub one, which adorable and holds a lot of necessary baby items. I didn't want to spend a ton, honestly, because between bottles and puffs, everything of Gavin's someone manages to get wet, dirty, or stained. What's your favorite purchase this month?
