  Freedom, family, fireworks, that’s how we spent 4th of July 2019.

  This year was probably one of the better July 4ths we have had in a while because we were surrounded by so much love and family. We traveled to Tampa to spend the day with my brother, sister in law and her family, then my mom, step-dad, Cameron, and myself. A few of my brother’s friends joined in on the fun too so there was a lot of people around.

  It was a pretty low-key day of grilling out, swimming, and fireworks. There was a lot of food and drinks too, because every good party needs that.

  Of course, it being Florida, it was cloudy and overcast most of the day, but luckily no rain. Although with the thunder and lightning we did have to exit the pool for a little bit of time.

  All in all it was a great day celebrating independence and getting to spend time with family and friends!

• It takes a village..

  Posted at 3:04 pm by CS, on March 27, 2019

  When they say it takes a village to raise a child, they are not lying. We were and are very lucky to have the village that we have. The friends and family that are a part of our lives are amazing.

  When Cameron was born we got so lucky that my mother was able to come out and help us for 10 weeks. It was so helpful to have that extra set of hands, especially when I had my unexpected gallbladder surgery. It was also so helpful for all the new mom questions that I had that my mom was there to help me answer them. As a new mom it seemed like every movement or breathe or noise that Cameron was making I was concerned about so it was so nice that my mom was there to help calm those nerves.

  In terms of those new mom questions that we all find ourselves having, I also have some great mom friends that helped ease my anxiety. I don’t know how many times in those first few months I would ask for their opinion, or see if they had experienced something similar with their children. These women, who are not only some amazing moms, but also great friends have shown me what kind of mom I can be.

  We have a great family presence in our lives with being so far from our family. From all of Cameron’s grandparents, to her aunts and uncles, and those friends that are like family and see Cameron as such, we know we are so loved and cared for no matter how close or far they may be!
