The First Year

Was your May crazy? Mine was definitely Maycember 🤪 All the normal stuff plus dance recitals AND both of my girls birthdays. I never want to forget this phase where my 5 year old puts excessive amounts of clips in her hair or how my 2 year old is obsessed with her doctor kit. I got a mannequin head and practiced French braiding - I’ve nailed the double French braid!
