Honest Bloom Essentials

Trusting the process is so hard when you’re in the thick of it...I get it...I’ve been there...hands thrown up in the air, questioning everything, exhausted by emotion.⠀⠀
Can I share a little piece of what this looked like for me?⠀⠀
Postpartum anxiety completely took over one night. We were invited to a fun get together, but couldn’t attend (hello newborn nurser who refused a bottle 🤨). I knew it’d be super fun & I knew A.L.L our friends would be there. ⠀⠀
I knew better than to check Instagram and Facebook, but I did anyway 🤦‍♀️. My feeds were flooded with pics, everyone having a blast and then it hit me... “did anyone care? Did anyone notice I wasn’t there? How could they have soo much fun without me?”⠀⠀
Deep down I knew none of those things were true, but in that moment my mind went out of control and my anxiety went through the roof, sweaty palms, fast breathing, shivering, dry mouth, it was awful! ⠀⠀
Know that if you’re there, I get it, I’ve been there too & it sucks!! ⠀
⠀⠀
I’d love to say I overcame, I conquered, but the truth is...my anxiety won that night & I realize now it had to. ⠀
⠀⠀
That moment of sheer panic needed to happen, so God could work on my heart, to shake me, to realize what He had meant for me in this season was this beautiful large family. ⠀
⠀⠀
A baby who needed me to be present and snuggle and nourish his body. A hubby who needed me to be present and find my belonging in him. These were the things meant for me and if I hadn’t been so broken that night, I would have missed where I truly belonged ✨.⠀

I’d adventure anywhere with this guy! 💕 📷: my 7 yr old 😊💫. We found this little bridge in our town on one of our “hometown adventures”, it was a perfect spot to walk, dream, and chat together...and it reminds me of the south (which if you don’t know, it’s my favorite!!). Happy weekend, friends, don’t forget to disconnect this weekend and enjoy & 💕

This is for sure he face that belongs on picture day for the kiddos school 🤪😂🤗🤦‍♀️.

My girlies love it & want to wear the fanciest dresses, my son...well it’s a struggle to get him to wear anything 🤗!

Picture day is stressful & some years I just give up and let it go, resolving that we will have plenty of “candid” shots of him, this year I really want that school pic 😉, so suck it SPD, today is not your day!

We struggled, we complained, I made this face a bajillion times, he loathed life & in the end, he wore the navy polo and I compromised on the comfy/non matching shoes and shorts 🙃.
