Happy Saturday, Everyone! I wanted to take a few minutes this morning and simply say THANK YOU to all of you who have read and supported Mommy’s Me Time so far. We’ve been going for a little over a month, and I have been so encouraged by your comments, emails, and messages. This week Mommy’s Me Time hit record page views, and I feel sincerely grateful to have the privilege of sharing the journey of womanhood together.
My heart is full as I think about all you sisters, wives, and mommies out there who are constantly prioritizing your families and living selflessly so they feel unconditionally loved. You are a blessing! Keep up the great work, remembering that God is using you even on those tough days when you’re absolutely frazzled and exhausted.
As Mommy’s Me Time continues, my hope and prayer is that it will be a place where we can continue to offer encouragement and affirmation to each other as we celebrate the highs of raising a family and muddle through the less than glamorous pieces of motherhood as well. In order to be the best we can be, we need to pour into ourselves so we have that much more to give.
Before I sign off for the day, I’ll leave you with a few bump shots since I didn’t have a chance to share a style post yesterday. My precious little girls are growing and moving like crazy these days, but thankfully I still have a few maternity outfits that cover me up! I’ve gotten a lot of use out of this plaid top from Gap. It’s light as a feather and super comfy! I lucked out when we moved to Woodbury because the Gap here has a huge maternity section in the store! The infinity scarf is homemade! My sister-in-law taught me how to make them last year, and I love having various colors I can choose from to spice up my outfits in the winter months. Thanks to the Belly Band, I’m still able to wear my normal jeans when I feel like it. I didn’t have one when I was pregnant with Baylen, but have absolutely LOVED it this time around.

Lots of love,
Amber

You are adorable!!! In the future you should do a style post on how you do your hair and what products you use because it always looks so cute! HUG!
Awwww! You look so cute. I loved the infinity scarf, I would really like to learn to knit. Sounds like fun. I am glad that you guys got the snow and here in NC it is 50 degrees. I am looking so forward to Spring which I know that we can still have snow but I don’t want any lol. It is a beautiful picture behind you though. Have a wonderful weekend!
Amber, you are just glowing… absolutely beautiful.
I hope you & your lovely family have a great weekend
xoxo
