In One Year….

I can not believe I am pulling out Valentines Day decorations already! I remember this time last year I was chasing around my little man and thinking how lucky I was to have him. This Valentines Day I have Two little guys and the Handsome Man who gave them to me ➽ I feel beyond blessed to have my boys!

In one year we found out we were expecting another baby, moved to a different state, celebrated another year of marriage and had a baby!  I believe that life is not about how many breaths you take, but instead how many moments take your breath away. What’s for certain is that the time we have is precious. Spend some time today with those you love. 

I am putting together an extra special “Valentines Day for Him” this year so follow me on Instagram to see my awesome finds sneak peak next week & for some awesome coupon codes !!! (@themagnoliamom)

This Time Last Year~ 2016

 
 
This Year we are a family of 4 & Matthew is still very much a ladies man!

Dock A Tot – A Sleep Miracle!

If you have not seen or heard about Dock A Tot yet, I will gladly be the first to tell you, Include this on your baby registry !

Since the day I brought Jacob home I have put him into his Dock A Tot, he loves it! Every time he gets startled a very common new born trait the soft sides of the Doc A Tot comforts him and allows him to calm in just seconds and sooth himself back to sleep. Hallelujah!

 With Matthew my first Son, I had to pick him up every time he startled to sooth him back to sleep, this is not necessarily a bad thing although allowing the baby to self sooth in his Dock A Tot has helped with his Sleep habits and adjusting to life outside the womb.

 If your considering a Dock A Tot, I say YES! 100 % add this to your list of Must Haves ! Follow along on Instagram @themagnoliamom and see Jacob use his on a daily basis.
