Can you believe it’s June already?

This month starts the summer season and there is so much I am looking forward to, especially exploring our new neighborhood and the surrounding areas. It has been so nice so far just being closer to family. My sister has been such a huge help, though we are still feeling quite unsettled in the house. We haven’t ordered our bed yet, or installed a real fence, or finished painting. If you have been following along with the paint drama on stories you know what a project that has been. I am happy to announce that I have finally selected a color for Eleanor’s room — stay tuned. I’m deep into furniture planning right now and have a pretty good idea of how everything will eventually look.

These last weeks I have been wrapped up in so many things, it has been hard to find a moment for myself. That is something that is top of mind this month. I’ve been so busy taking care of everyone else, now I need to take some time to take care of myself. It is so important to take care of yourself too as a mom. Taking a shower and washing your hair is the baseline, not a luxury. You need the luxurious moments for yourself too whether that be ducking out for a spa day or simply sitting down for ten minutes with a piece of chocolate and a glass of wine. Whatever floats your boat.

This month I plan on prioritizing incorporating moments for myself daily. I figure if I sprinkle a few little moments of joy into my routine they will become daily rituals. For example I finally bought myself a gua sha last month and love that it has become a moment for me each day. It’s the little things in life.

As we head into the new month and the start of summer is there anything you want to see from me? Let me know in the comments or send me a note!
