You’ll always be my baby – even if you aren’t the baby anymore. Even as you’re promoted to big brother, you’ll still be my first baby. The one who made me a mama. I love you with all of me. 💙 #unfilteredmotherhood #motherhoodunplugged

I just realized that I never shared a photo of our new bundle of joy! Meet sweet baby boy, Cassian. He’s a great sleeper and nurses like a pro! Mama got lucky with this boy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I also want to share that my husband gifted me a HUGE polka dot blanket from @bigblanketco instead of flowers, as a labor gift. I think it’s the perfect way to celebrate a new addition to the family. Seriously, the blanket it almost bigger than our whole sectional lol. As a collector of throw blankets, this one takes the cake! Good job, hubby! 👏 #unfilteredmotherhood #motherhoodunplugged

ad • A goal I had for the summer was to finish my son's superhero room! Thanks to @officialcricut – we're almost there. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I found some cute buckets to store little toys and shoes and wanted to customize them! Using my Cricut Joy and the Cricut Design Space, I made these fun Superhero Comic Bubble vinyl decals to match his room! I'm sharing the free file on my blog today, along with a step-by-step tutorial so you can cut and layer these decals at home! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Check out my Insta Stories today to see the buckets in his room! _____ 💥😍 #cricutjoy #cricutathome #cricutcreated #marvelkid #comicbooklover https://lnk2.io/wtYXh6R

Nothing prepared me for how I’d feel about being

Nothing prepared me for how I’d feel about being a mom of two. I came home with my new baby and instantly felt the mom guilt. I didn’t want my toddler to feel left out or confused about why mommy wasn’t giving him attention. I knew I’d be too tired to do the things we used to do together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now that we’re almost a week into this new family of ours, I realize that we can adapt to anything. I’m taking advantage of any moments I can get with my two-year-old, including our naps together — which we’ve both always cherished. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The best advice I’ve received for becoming a mom of two is to continue to give the oldest child all my attention, while tending to baby’s needs. Thank you @summerlendavis for that. 💙 #motherhoodunplugged #unfilteredmotherhood #mothersonlove

I’d like to introduce everyone to our newest addition: Cassian Julius Santos. He was born at 3:07am, weighing 6lbs 14 oz, 19 1/2 inches. It was an unmedicated birth that took only one push! 😅 Mommy is recovering from a 4th degree tear and Cassian is a breastfeeding machine! 💙 Our family is complete. #motherhood #motherhoodunplugged

As we wait for our baby boy to make an appearance,
