Isabella is officially a kindergartener and Sophia is a 2nd grader. How did this happen? When did my little babies become such big girls. Tuesday was aa fairly easy day for me; Sophia had a half day and Isabella had orientation (We went to meet her teach and explore her classroom for about an hour.). Today, on the other hand was miserable. If you follow me on instagram @reneefitformotherhood you read that I was a complete mess while sending my girls off. Seriously, I couldn’t stop crying.

Sunday, we rested until celebrating Pop’s...

Two of my girls are going to go to school every day, all day. There is no turning back. I am one sad mama and tomorrow’s meet the teacher isn’t going to make it any easier. We had a fun, yet relaxing weekend. Honestly, Saturday I didn’t even leave the house and it felt great. The girls and I played in the rain that afternoon and it was...
