It’s hard to believe that in just a few days Viv

It’s hard to believe that in just a few days Vivienne Violet will be 5 weeks old. Before she was born I wasn’t sure how a Gigi would handle not being the center of attention. It’s no secret that she’s been incredibly spoiled by both Simon and I (mostly Simon). At the end of my pregnancy she kept her distance from me, as if she was holding me responsible for the changes to come. The day we brought the baby home she seemed nervous and excited and in the weeks since she’s displayed curiosity but is incredibly respectful and gentle. I can’t wait to see how she’ll be once the baby is more mobile. I have a feeling that as long as there’s food involved they’ll be the best of friends 😆

For those who had their fur babies long before they had their child: how did they react with the new addition?

1 month of falling in love this beauty. It’s bee

1 month of falling in love this beauty. It’s been a heck of a month, between being a new mom and a pandemic happening I’ve had moments of feeling so overwhelmed. During these difficult times she’s one of the things that gives me hope. They say children are one of our biggest teachers and throughout our time of getting to know each other I’ve witnessed this to be true. She’s not worried about tomorrow, she’s in the here and now, while trusting that she’s taken care of. She’s true to her emotions and takes joy in the small things (like burping) and is hopeful for the future. .
It’s so hard to not get caught up in the news; to feel overcome with uncertainty and anxiety of what’s to come. I’ve found that it’s necessary to take some time away from the news, to take a short walk, to breath and to keep my thoughts uplifted. I know that however I react my daughter (even at this young age) absorbs my reactions and will eventually learn from them. .
1 month down a lifetime to go.
I’m thankful she chose me to be her mother ❤️

Today I celebrate 34 trips around the sun! 33 was

Today I celebrate 34 trips around the sun! 33 was a year filled with so much personal growth, lots of letting go and surrendering. It’s the year where I was stretched emotionally (and physically) more then I ever have before, where I put my trust in the universe and when I became a mother. .

I’ve stopped wasting time with people who don’t uplifted me. I’ve learned that forgiving doesn’t release someone of their wrongdoing but it does help loosen the hold they have in my life thus allowing me to fulfill my destiny. That the purpose of life is to be happy and live without regret, by making peace with the past and being content with the present. .
I’m blessed to celebrate yet another year, especially with the greatest gifts life could have given me: my family, my health and my beautiful baby ❤️
.
Cheers to another year! .

Today Vivienne Violet is 11 days old. Having a bab

Today Vivienne Violet is 11 days old. Having a baby is like instant boot camp where you hit the ground running and no matter how hard you prepare beforehand there’s no turning back and you adjust in ways you didn’t think were possible. Motherhood is making me much more efficient with time, something that I’ve struggled with in the past but it’s something I’m grateful to be working on. I can accomplish most tasks one handed and while nursing, my showers are becoming increasingly shorter and I’ve established a 2-5 minute (if that) makeup routine that consists of concealer, lipgloss, brow pencil, blush and occasionally mascara. Having this quick routine is a small step of self cafe; it brings a sense of normalcy, it’s a great way for me to check in with myself and to breath. So this the postpartum me: tired, with less makeup, figuring it out one moment at a time. .

What’s something you do to show yourself some selfcare? .

Happy Birthday to the love of my life. A few weeks

Happy Birthday to the love of my life. A few weeks ago I watched you transform instantly into a father; you stayed up most of the night our daughter was born to make sure she was ok while I rested. You’re a natural nurturer and one of the funniest and wittiest people I know. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner and father.Life would be so dull without you.
There’s no one else I’d rather swim through life with 💕

She’s here! Vivienne Violet made her appearance

She’s here! Vivienne Violet made her appearance earth side on Wednesday February 19th 2:39pm to the tune of @marcanthony “Valio La Pena” with her eyes wide open and a head full of hair. Her name means “alive” and she truly has been since birth. We are so in love and I can’t believe she’s mine.

To all friends and family who have visited/called/texted we love you all so much and are so lucky to have you. Simon and I are especially thankful to our Mother In Law, the newborn stage isn’t easy and being sleep deprived and trying to figure things out as first time parents can be stressful but the process has been made so much easier with the additional help.
To my handsome husband @simeondjewely and my wonderful doula @awakeningmother thank you for cheering me on throughout my labor, I couldn’t have imagined it any other way!

To Baby V happy due date! Your dad and I adore you more then you’ll ever know!
Here’s a photo of our first family walk 🥰

38 weeks pregnant today 🥰 The last few days hav

38 weeks pregnant today 🥰 The last few days have been a little intense with some back pain and I’m getting more tired and easily winded. Baby V is beginning to lodge her tiny feet into my ribs and letting me know that it’s starting to get snug in there. My hands and feet are also starting to swell, I actually needed help yesterday putting on my shoes because my feet wouldn’t go in 😅 other then that I’m doing well and nervous and excited to meet her. .

She’ll be here in 2 weeks. .
When do you think she’ll be born? Comment your guesses below! . .

#fbf to this photo taken a year ago. I remember fe

#fbf to this photo taken a year ago. I remember feeling bloated and uncomfortable, wishing I could lose at least 5 more pounds. Would losing those 5 more pounds make me happier? Probably not. .
Now a year later at 9 months pregnant I’ve gained almost 40 lbs (and counting) and love myself more then I did at my thinnest and nothing has changed except for my mindset. I started this pregnancy with ideas of how much weight I wanted to gain and of how fit I would be which quickly went out the window once my mobility was limited. .

Life isn’t something that you can control and no matter how fit, beautiful or successful you are, if how if you’re not happy with yourself nothing else will matter.
Social media is filled with posts about diets, weight loss, bouncing back after pregnancy etc. Then society puts pressure on how a woman should look, which then internalizes into the pressure we put on ourselves. .
Stop comparing yourself to other people and their journeys, they’re probably struggling with something you’re not aware of. .
So my message to you today is to accept yourself the way you are. Love yourself through all of the changes life brings, honor each part of your body and be thankful. .
Chances are you’re more perfect then you think.
