We’ve Leveled Up as Parents

⚠️ I want to warn every parent out there that just when you think that you have your child figured out that they change.

🌱 Just when you think that you have this parenting thing down, you are asked to grow and change.

👶 Our kids start out so reliant on us for everything.

🥹 I remember when they couldn’t even lift their heads.

❤️ I was there every step of the way.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 My husband reluctantly let me quit my job and I know that was so much on him.

🏡 I’ve stayed home with my kids from day one and I’m so thankful to him every day for this.

💼 You all know that I went back to work part time, but I work my schedule around my children.

🚶 They start to walk, which is a whole new challenge for us.

🛡️ We have to protect them from themselves.

🤰 One of my hardest stages of parenting was when Max was almost two and I was very pregnant with Ella.

🏃 Chasing him and keeping him safe with a big belly was a stage of parenting that I will never forget.

You can go to whinypaluza.com to read the full blog and see my reflection on the stages of parenting and where we are now.

📣Join me live tonight at 9PM ET on my personal Facebook page to chat more about the changes in parenting as our children grow.
