Mornings like these. . .

When we launched our hat company back in November, the work / mom life balance reallllly rocked my world. I couldn’t handle it all + had days where I felt like I’m dropping every hat I’m trying to wear. I still do. I’ve never been super structured with schedule, but as I’ve hunkered down intentionally, I’ve discovered that our slow mornings are where my heart really thrives.

Rigg has always been my snuggler. Since the day he arrived in this world, he’s snuggled until the sun goes down. He’s also obsessssssed with his “sofffft one”. (blanket) His voice changes when he sees it + won’t go to sleep without it.

I find myself constantly pondering how the dynamic will change once brother arrives in July. Now that we’ve found our groove + mornings are especially comfortable for us, (well, minus the fact that I can’t put my shoes on without sitting down + crossing my legs up on my lap. HA!)  I want to put on paper a few of the tiny every day moments that we share together.

The sun rises much earlier now. Which I love. Our bedroom is 40% floor to ceiling windows, so sleeping in is hard not really in our vocabulary. Jon wakes up at 6. I wake up around 7. Jonah is pretty consistently up around 7:30 to say bye to Jon before work. He gets really upset if he misses that window with Dad. Like tantrum status. Rigg is a bit more unpredictable: some days he’s up at 6, sometimes he sleeps until 9:30.

cereals

Both boys prefer Frosted Mini Wheats with fresh strawberries on top for breakfast. A friend mentioned on facebook that she reads together at breakfast with her girls + we tried the same thing. They can’t read on their own yet, but I could not recommend it enough. The boys each choose a book from their shelf + we I read them aloud together at breakfast. We are currently reading The BFG before bed  (our first chapter book together!!) but it has been wonderful to still incorporate other books into our daily routine!

Bath time after breakfast!! We usually do a quick rinse bath at before bed, but spend more time playing/cleaning in the morning bath. My parents gave us this little farm letter bath toy a while back + it’s a total hit in the tub. PS: Jonah teaching Rigg letters? No sweeter scene.

lotions

Getting ready is always an adventure. Jonah prefers to put on his own lotion + choose his own clothes. Not Rigg. He soaks up the pampering 100%. I cherish it, seems to keep him smaller a big longer in my mind. Think he’ll still let me when he’s 14? No because he’ll never be that old. 🙂

I have sensitive legs to the tenth degree. I could get razor burn just by looking at them wrong. Aveeno has been the only lotion that I can apply directly after shaving that doesn’t make me break out. All of my sisters are the same way. So strange! But it’s been a natural transition to implement their baby line into our bath time routine with the kids. The pump top lotion bottle is Mr. Independent’s favorite. Unscented + glides like butter. Perfect for little boys.

I’m grateful that the boys aren’t into tv like they have been previously. We’ve basically eliminated it from our mornings. It’s been a long time coming, but if I give them the choice to watch or go outside, they honestly choose outside 99% of the time. Summer, you are everything to me!! I’ve been amazed at how well the boys do with a little structure. Our afternoons are still pretty sporadic, but mornings with these few simple consistencies, really do start us out on the right foot.

Thank you, Aveeno, for encouraging us to document our #tinymoments! I’d pass along the encouragement to everyone else, as I know these will be priceless memories for our growing family! I partnered with AVEENO® on this post. All opinions are 100% my own.
