“But Aren’t Professional Family Photographs Just Fake Pictures?”

September 1, 2017September 1, 20176 Comments

Family Pictures. When I think professional family photographs, I think of staged pictures for the camera with forced smiles. I think of the shots from the 80’s with the matching denim, big hair and a faded drape in the background.

I am scarred by those images. So much that I Continue reading →

Bittersweet gratitude: my boys have graduated from riding in jogging strollers to participating in the fun run at the Turkey Trot! I’m grateful for a lot of things this year, but most recently I’m grateful for returning to the blog after a year long break and all of the amazing feedback and support. Check out the blog < link in profile > for 3 new posts about unexpected curve balls, a gratitude practice that saved our chaotic family dinners, and what I’ve been up to for the last year.
Not posed for a picture. This is honestly what I did when I realized I was standing in middle of a rocky stream high up in the mountains without another soul around except @r.carl.clt , celebrating our sixth anniversary and he happened to catch a picture #howhemakesmefeel #ithinkilikehim
This picture inspired my piece, Younger Girls: The Bane of All Women's Existence, that is featured right now on @bluntmoms ! It's one of my favorites! Check out the link in my profile to read it. #myrabbittrails #bluntmoms #boymom
Wednesday I said I never post picts of myself and then I proceeded to post 3 in a row. I guess I'm over that fear. Another fear I'm glad I got over: submitting to @scarymommy because today my writing was published on Scary Mommy! So we're celebrating! Click the link in profile to see my post!! #myrabbittrails #scarymommy #datenight Fun fact: we were last here exactly 5 years ago. I was pregnant with #1. Crazy to think where we are now.
I couldn't decide between the pict of me giving them the stink eye for refusing to sit with me for a pict or of my laughter bc this is our life. At least I have champagne and an extra peanut butter sandwich in case anyone gets hungry and music...good bluegrass music. ❤️#momlife #3boys #abmhappylife #thesemomentsmatter #myheartisfull
My new favorite day of the work week is the day I wear my super comfortable @mint_standard standard dress to work! This is the dress I mentioned in my July 31st Top 5 (link in profile). Threw on heels and a big necklace, gave the boys their goodbye kisses without worrying about any stains and out the door. Can you tell my big set of mom keys are in my right pocket? Best pockets ever and the gathers in the skirt help keep them a secret (so your hips and thighs don't look all weird and bulging. No one likes that) #treatyourself #momlife #myrabbittrails PS @kelley_lovelikecrazy I don't love posting pics of myself but this one's for you! And no I'm not getting any 💲 for posting this. I just genuinely ❤️ this dress and love supporting other women getting it done!
This morning's run plan did not include a detour to the fire station or even a running buddy. But this guy skipped down the stairs with a huge smile on his face as I was walking out the door and things changed. Thanks to the firemen @charlottefire for spending time with my sweet boy so early in the am! Unplanned, #bestrunever 🏃‍♀️🚒. At what age is it unacceptable to push your kid in a jogging stroller? Love my bob #askingforafriend 😉#fitmom #runningmom #running
If you are a working mama or soon to be a working mama - read this! (Could also be helpful if you manage working mamas, are married to a working mama or just want insight into a working mama.) To borrow one of the lines in the book: We're all responsible for raising the next generation. More about this amazing book in today's blog post - link in profile. @thefifthtrimester @laurensbrody #myrabbittrails
