today:: november 9

Today is one of those days where life feels like it’s spinning in a million directions, but in the best possible way. I’m writing this as I take a quick breather between tasks—because let’s be honest, there’s always something to do. Right now, I’m looking forward to having a house full of friends and family tonight. It’s been a while since we’ve had everyone over, and I can already feel the warmth and laughter filling up the space in my mind. To make it even better, I’ve been slaving away in the kitchen all morning making a massive batch of cinnamon rolls. Last night, I spent hours perfecting the dough, and now it’s finally paying off. There’s nothing quite like the smell of freshly baked cinnamon rolls wafting through the house—it’s pure comfort food heaven. Speaking of heaven, Aliyah had her second round of swim lessons recently, and she absolutely adored them! Watching her grow more confident in the water has been such a joy. By the end of the session, she accomplished everything they asked of her, and I couldn’t help but beam with pride. She’s growing up so fast! On a completely different note, tonight I’m planning to post my 26-week maternity photos to the ongoing series I’ve been documenting. Honestly, it’s hard to believe I’m already 27 weeks along. Time seems to be flying by, and I find myself constantly contemplating all the things left on my to-do list before the baby arrives. Between setting up the nursery, buying supplies, and preparing mentally for this new chapter, there’s no shortage of things to think about. But enough about responsibilities—let’s talk about the little wins! My daughter finally moved into her new room and big bed, and so far, it’s been smooth sailing. Even though our dog, Dolce, hasn’t exactly taken to sleeping in there yet, she seems to be adjusting well. It’s amazing how resilient kids can be sometimes—they adapt so quickly to change. I also have to give credit where it’s due: my husband deserves major props for stepping up in the kitchen lately. We’ve been experimenting with some incredible, healthy recipes together, and he’s really taken the lead on chronicling our progress. It’s inspiring to see him embrace this side of cooking, and it’s brought us closer as a team. Of course, balancing everything isn’t easy. I’m trying to squeeze in as much rest as possible because, let’s face it, the next few months will be exhausting. Cleaning, laundry, cooking, editing photos, and taking care of a toddler all at once? It’s a lot, but I’m determined to make it work somehow. Some things will inevitably fall by the wayside, but I’ll cross that bridge when I get there. Finally, I’m hoping all of you out there reading this have a fantastic day ahead. Life can get chaotic, but moments like these remind me to stop and appreciate the beauty in everyday life. Whether you’re celebrating small victories or just trying to keep your head above water, remember that you’re not alone. We’re all in this together, navigating the ups and downs of existence one step at a time. Until next time, stay blessed and take care! 🍀 *P.S.

Hope yours is just as sweet!
