68 HOURS AS A SINGLE MOM

Not even three full days and boy was I exhausted! I don't know how moms (and dads) do it; single or not, babies are tough! But so cute and cuddly :)


I got to spend a long weekend with my one-year-old nephew while his mom and dad took a mini vacay. I don't get too see him often enough so the one-on-one time with him was really nice. Besides his eat and sleep routine, we really had no schedule; we hung around the house in our pjs, ran errands together, and visited quite a few parks and walking trails. It was wonderful.


The man is full-on walking now so I didn't get too many pictures of him (it's hard to snap pics while chasing baby and diverting dangerous situations), but of course I have to brag and share the few I did get!







On a walk - One of my FAVORITE things about living in the North...Fall colors! 














Isn't the little man just the sweetest?!?

First of all: He is so precious! Your family makes really good looking kids!

Secondly, I bed you were the best baby sitter. I know you are one of my friends I would entrust my offspring to. You've got that motherly swag.

Lastly, those pics are really good Kara. It looks like a professional photog session!
