Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man

[starpadilla]

“Adults guess and assume that I’m not going to understand things just because I’m a little kid.  And it can be frustrating.  Cause, like, I really want to know stuff.  Or even when they do talk to me about things, they’ll always try to ‘tone it down to my level.’  They especially avoid the heavy themes like sex and death and cannibalism and stuff.  But that’s stuff I want to talk about.  I’m really fascinated by the Donner Party.  The entire expedition, really.  What did it feel like to eat people that you knew?  I’m also fascinated by how the human mind deals with death.  It’s like people shut down the idea of death completely, and insist that heaven and hell are places after death.  But death is death.  And everyone after death is dead, because consciousness is just your brain.  And even if there is evidence of life after death, it’s difficult to assess.  We’re going to be incredibly biased toward any information that suggests there’s something more.  Because we are so desperate to believe it.”

When I lock eyes with this boy, it’s hard to look away. For one thing, he's got the most expressive eyes and his grin just pulls you in. For another, he love to stare back. Sometimes I catch him staring at me so hard, with his eyebrows raised and unblinking eyes wide open. He would kill it in a staring contest. I recently read a study that when a baby and an adult make eye contact, their brain waves fall in sync. And those shared patterns of brain activity may actually pave the way for better communication between baby and adult: Babies make more sweet, little sounds when their eyes are locked onto an adult who is looking back. It’s a beautiful cycle, it seems, when eyes and brains meet. 💙 https://www.instagram.com/p/BvmJvzzl6Nd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=576c9g5f1qx4

Today is International Day of Happiness, the First Day of Spring and Orion is now 8 months old! 💙 Our little dude is scooting and crawling all over the place, pulling himself up and walkin with assistance. He's trying new foods every day and affectionate in that he squeezes your face and pulls you in for kisses. His smiles are relentless and his belly laughs make me melt on the daily. It’s true- this whole mom thing just keeps getting better! . . . .  #workingmom #storytellingmama #momlifeisthebestlife#lifeasmama #motherhoodunplugged#ohheymamas  #loveauthentic #lifewithlittles  #creativehappylife #teammotherly #mymamahood#mymotherhood #momlifestyle #momlife#momstyle #8months #magicofmotherhood #milestones https://www.instagram.com/p/BvQWMzplt9b/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=182vka85iedax

Happiest Birthday, Donovan! I may not be your mom by blood, but you will always be my son <3. Thank you for being an awesome big brother. Can't believe you're 14 years old! You can stop growing now, so your dad, mom and I don't feel like we're getting crazy old. K thanks :) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu6mDQ0lZ37/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=w2bvy3ag0vt4

Tonight was Josh and Natalie's "daddy daughter" date, Donovan is at his friends, so Alex, Orion and I had our date night at Red Robin, followed by ice cream for dessert. Now I've got this lil boy tuckered and all cuddly 😍 https://www.instagram.com/p/BuxkDdgFizS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1sfssbb4v67vi

Thought Orion and I needed a mini backpack 🎒 for those small trips when we dont really need the large and in charge baby backpack. Love love love our new @tokidokibrand and @jujube_intl collar mini be😍 Been a fan of Tokidoki for years and now that I have a baby boy I love that there's still fun and practical items I can use with him. https://www.instagram.com/p/BusSFyDlXIi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mccy8la3ddeo

Big blue eyes and chunky thighs 😍💙 Thigh rolls. Arm rolls. Ankle rolls. Rolling over. Rock n Roll. Rolling with my homies. Not sure what I did to deserve you but the last 7 months have been priceless. I love you so much baby boy. Today we celebrate 7 months AND two teeth breaking through. #babyrolls #7months #milestones #blueyes #chunkythighs https://www.instagram.com/p/BuIQbZ4l16H/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jdw1aijzeb4p
