Inchbug Labels for School Days {a&n Share It All}

Well, as you'll tell from the pictures below (and how it's Christmas in February, obviously), we've been on a blogging hiatus over here, between holidays and family in town, fighting winter germs and sickness, and surviving single mom-status and balancing work life plus Momming life plus keeping a household up... needless to say, it's been busy!  BUT!  We're back at it and I'm trying to make this a New Year's Resolution of getting some nightly me-time by blogging!  So here we go!

Global Winter Wonderland

After the craziness of the holiday hustle and bustle, we were able to finally check out Global Winter Wonderland, located at the Rio Hotel and Casino parking lot, and were pleasantly surprised with how much bigger it was than we expected!  We met up with our friends Jess and Scarlett, and let the kids explore "around the world" before letting loose on the carnival rides.

New Year, New Us

I've had these pictures for three months, yet, could never find a way to start this post.  As I go through the motions each day, each week, each month passing by, some days are easier and others can be a struggle.  Most days are surprisingly decent, and I've learned I have a lot more strength in me than I ever knew.  Yet, writing it down and putting it out there is just still so weird for me.  I figured with a new year in sight, brings a new normal for our family, so what better time to share these photos than now.

Our family of four has decided to change.  

A Day at ABC Kids Expo '18

The month of October kicks of the start of holiday festivities for us, but before all that goodness, the ABC Kids Expo is another exciting perk of the month!  I looked forward to attending the expo again this year, and applied for a media badge early on.  With our family dynamic changes and my start of full-time work, I was bummed to think I'd be unable to attend the show this year.  Fortunately, some days in my schedule switched around, and I was able to attend- even if it was just one day!  I packed up the kids and we prepped for a full day there... because last year was 2.5 days of craziness, and I knew I was about to pack in all of that in just a few hours!
