You think you know… but you have no idea.

I’ve always wanted to say that…lol! It’s from MTV's series “Diary” (circa early 2000's), which documented the behind the scenes, unscripted, “uncut“ side of celebrities that we rarely, if ever saw. That is what I hope to share here. The behind the scenes of the curated pictures you might find elsewhere. The highs, the lows, the mommy fails, the things I wish I knew, things I have learned along the way and everything in between! If you’re interested take a peek, and if you are so inclined comment!

The title is dramatic. I’m telling you now. Though I need help in many ways on any given day of the week, this time in particular I’m sending an S.O.S for help with my daughter’s hair. HAHA! No seriously.

I haven’t a clue what to do with it. Okay let me clarify. I can’t do the one style that is probably the most necessary for my busy toddler - braids. It’s not like I didn’t have time to prepare.

But apparently that is not the case.

Despite all the challenges this year has thrown our way… we have embarked on new ventures, tapped into talents we never knew we had, created new goals, pivoted and found a way to maintain… for the most part! Lol.

Tired as a mother…

Truth be told... sleep has been one of the single most challenging aspects of the infant/toddler stage. Even though I “think” we are doing a pretty decent job... figuring out what issue might have one of the twins off their normal sleep schedule (teething, developmental milestone, illness, regression, time for a nap transition, wind blew the wrong way, etc. etc.) is... exhausting. Pun intended.
