Last night as I told Emma Kate good night for the Last night as I told Emma Kate good night for the last time as an 8 year old, I told her how fast it was all going. She said “mom, everyone has to grow up.” 😭

But I’m just not ready. We are in such a fun stage, and I love that she still wants to dress like me. Hold my hand. Snuggle with me at night. I know it won’t last and it kills me.

I remember 9 years ago tonight. I was so nervous I didn’t sleep. I was being induced the next morning and I knew my whole life was about to change. How can you sleep knowing you were about to meet a little person that you would be in charge of for 18 years? 

I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It’s hard to imagine a future when you are doing something brand new. It has been way harder than I ever anticipated, but also so much more rewarding. I wish I could go back and tell 9 years ago Heather that it was all going to be ok.

That we would go through some really hard stuff, but we would do it together. Our little unit of 3 would make it, even if we had to learn on the fly, and even if we made some mistakes. With a lot of prayer and help from family and friends, we could do it. 

So happy birthday bug. We love you bigger than the sky, and are loving celebrating you all weekend. When you are running the world one day, don’t forget about mom and dad. ❤️

***The AMAZING cake for EK’s party was make by the oh so talented @sweets_by_maya6 in the Knoxville area. She is a true artist and everyone raved over this delicious cake! Go to her page and check out some of her amazing creations!

#ad Did you know that adults are supposed to get b #ad Did you know that adults are supposed to get between 25 and 38 grams of fiber a day? I have some work to do to reach that number, but I’m thankful @benefiber makes it a little easier!✨ 

Introducing the NEW Benefiber Prebiotic Fiber Gummies - the tastiest way to give my gut the love it deserves. 🍏🍇 
These fruity gummies are my go-to for daily prebiotic fiber, supporting my gut’s good bacteria.* 

With 6g of fiber in each serving, they’re a vegetarian-friendly treat that’s free from artificial sweeteners or flavors. Let’s get to work on getting that fiber! Do you eat enough fiber?

Country Roads, take me to a cabin! (The place wher Country Roads, take me to a cabin! (The place where I belong!) ad ⛰️ 

Recently we spent a long weekend at a beautiful, huge cabin in Sevierville Tennessee, which is just outside of Pigeon Forge. We have stayed in a lot of cabins, so let me just tell you how staying with @overmoon is different. 👍🏻

1.) You can add on services and products to your stay such as grocery delivery, early check in or late check out, and you can even rent a dog crate and it will be waiting for you when you check in. (Yes dogs are allowed!) 🐕 

2.) There is a local host that can answer any questions you have and make you feel right at home and is just a text away!

3.) They thought of everything! From bubble bath for the kids to body lotion, nightlights, a high chair and baby gate, they truly have everything you need so you don’t have to lug extra stuff around. They even stock extra bathroom and kitchen supplies! 

4.) Easy check out! No long list of chores like empty the trash, do the dishes or raise the air conditioner. You literally just pack up and go, making your departure easy and stress free. 

5.) They text you the door code and WiFi password at check in so you can immediately get inside the home. They also have a QR code you can scan that gives you home and area details such as the numbers to emergency services like the fire department and even the closest veterinarian! 

I saved my stories to a highlight under “CabinPF23” so be sure to check it out! 

Overmoon has homes in Tennessee AND Florida, so be sure to check them out for your next trip. Also, if you use code HEATHER10 in the next couple of weeks, you can save 10% on your stay! Visit Overmoon.com and check it out!

👇🏻My best tip for traveling with kids is thi 👇🏻My best tip for traveling with kids is this:

Treat it like a “trip” and not a vacation. 😬

If you set your expeditions a little lower and don’t imagine your trip to look like a movie set or IG reel, it will help you to stress less and enjoy it!

I have problems sometimes with expecting too much out of an 8 year old, and it admittedly can get me bent out of shape. Ever since I heard the “trip not a vacation” quote, it has helped a lot!

There will be a time when she doesn’t want to travel with us, or when she has moved out and started her own family trips and traditions. I’m sure I will wish for those crazy trip days, so even though sometimes it’s SO FRUSTRATING, I’m trying my best to just enjoy those moments!
