  • Ack! I can’t believe I (barely) captured this, it happens so fast. For awhile now, Loris has loved getting into the crawling position, but now she’s added waving 🥰👋🏼 and it’s just the best. After, instead of moving anywhere, she just does a bellyflop 🤷‍♀️😄😍 #ladyloris #7monthsold #wavehi #capturethemoment
  • I am as they say, low maintenance. I rarely wear makeup, didn’t even start until I was in college. I have never had my eyebrows touched, a manicure or pedicure, and I absolutely dread the salon. I don’t own jewelry and rarely wear perfume, but now days, with 2 wee girls, I can’t help but love matching outfits and spontaneous photo shoots! I’m probably closer to becoming a stage mom then my sweatpants loving self can admit, but it truly is fun being their mom. 😄💅🎀💖 #wednesdayswithwallis #ladyloris #4yearsold #7monthsold #sisters #motherofdaughters
  • (Turn on Sound) Yesterday Wallis came to us sobbing that she couldn’t fly like a bird. Nothing we said made her feel better and she just kept crying, and saying how much she wanted to fly. I imagine this had more to do with the quarantine and wanting to literally fly away, maybe to even go see her grandparents. - We listened and comforted her for awhile, and then I made a few suggestions of ways that would kinda be like flying, and this one stuck...but first she wanted to wear her bluebird costume 💔 - I wish I could have set this up better for her, but it was spur of the moment. Wallis however, LOVES it and seeing herself fly over and over again. It was a joyful reminder of the possibility of something magical, and we all could use a little of that right now. 🥰🐦 #wednesdayswithwallis #socialdistancing #quaratine #childhood #4yearsold #magicofchildhood
  • Allow me this moment, 7 years ago I painted the upstairs floors of our farmhouse green. At that time, everyone else (from what I saw) were painting them grey, black, or white. It’s taken 7 years, but green floors have finally become popular 😂 - I have a small potatoes blog, that use to be my other blog, that I updated a few years ago, tiffanyking.co - I write there mostly as a love letter to my girls though working with heavy eyelids and limited brain function due to the exhaustion of raising them, it’s mostly rushed writing and pictures, but hopefully they will look back and know I tried my best 🤪 - Occasionally, I share posts about home, and my love for gardening...I don’t keep up with that side as well though because it makes me feel insecure and awkward, but recently I have received soooo many emails about those green floors that I just thought I’d share. 😜 The emails I’ve received have been so kind and uplifting, thank you 🥰 #oldhouse #greenfloors #schoolhouseelectric
  • I have not been in my flower garden for over a year now, and as I am sure you have gathered from all of my blue captions, it has been a very deep loss for me. - There are days where I am overcome by the decisions we made...the selling of our beloved old house, and then giving up on a bad market and super pregnant panic buying a new house... I feel like we made so many mistakes. The End. 😞 - I know it’s not actually the end, and I know we had to move thanks to a 200 foot smoke stack basically moving next door. And I also know this is not a forever decision...and clearly there are worse things in life than a new house 🤦‍♀️ BUT today, when some of my plants arrived for the much smaller garden I plan to create here, I actually believed the more reasonable side of our journey. 🙃 - Plus Wallis was so thrilled, and her excitement makes everything feel better, she’s the band-aid to my angst. Today was good. 🍃#wednesdayswithwallis #startingover
  • Loris is 7 months old and though she started getting up on all fours last month, she’d still rather be walking and tries all day every day 🙄🤪 but she’s pure lovely joy, so I accept my aching back and bruised knees. 😍 - I realized yesterday that I’m struggling with social media (left for a month, cool if you didn’t notice 😉) because I’m struggling to accept where I’m currently at in life. It’s not at all what I had planned, so I find that I’m often anxious, restless, and depressed...SM doesn’t aide in that. Acceptance of what I could not change, and even the decisions I made during those changes, is something I’ve decided to try harder with, so that I can be more present of mind and less, sad snacking while looking out windows. 😬 Hope you all are well and finding that elusive light of being present. ✨ #ladyloris #7monthsold #imaworkinprogress
  • Trying to take a picture of two kids with a phone is a skill I have not mastered, someone is always slightly blurry 😬 but I’m going to have them matching for an inappropriate amount of years...so I have time to improve. 😉 Happy Easter! 🐰🐰 #wednesdayswithwallis #ladyloris #sisters #happyeaster #matchingsisters
  • Today I woke up feeling blue at the time my family is missing getting to know this wee love. Social distancing is the right thing to do, but not getting to experience your family love your baby in person, hurts the heart. I will never take that for granted again. ❤️ #ladyloris #6monthsold
  • I know we are surrounded by so much loss and uncertainty right now, it’s pretty terrifying...so posting pictures of my kids or at all, feels strange....but Loris turns 6 months old today and as many of you know, her start was very rocky to say the least, so today is a big milestone for us, one we could not imagine even a month ago, things were so much darker still, but now, this tiny lighthouse shines the brightest of lights into our days, reminding us that storms will come, but my, how beautifully they pass. 😍🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰😍 Swipe to see Wallis wearing the same outfit for her first Easter too, though Wallis was only 3 months. #firsteaster #6monthsoldtoday #ladyloris #wednesdayswithwallis #sisters
  • With my parents getting divorced, some days are impossibly hard for me to process. I feel as though I’m stuck in an alternate universe of no longer having parents, but two individuals going in separate directions, this painful proverbial fork in the road of what is now my life. - On days like this, I ache for my flower garden and the peace it brought me...but then I see joy cuddled in a tiny bed, 4:30 in the morning and think, “God, this must be your still small voice” I’m listening. 🤍 #somedaysareharderthanothers #sisters
  • Loris lays her head down when you say, “night night Loris” but a second later (swipe to see) sike! Neither of our ladies enjoy a lie-in 🤪😍😍 #ladyloris #5monthsold #ohthisbaby
  • Dear Loris, Wallis really likes to sing to you right now. I’m sorry. Love, Mom 😉😧 #wednesdayswithwallis #ladyloris #sisters #5monthsold #4yearsold
