Throwback Thursday: The Beginning

Throwback Thursday_1This was the very first ad I created for my blog two years ago.

In the beginning, I had structured the blog on reasons to get out of the house. Because inside the house, baby Wyatt would cry anytime I would try to finish ANYTHING if I wasn’t holding him.

Yep, even laundry. One time, I tried making eggs for myself with him in the Ergo and he bumped the burner up with his foot and almost caught us on fire. 😂  The JOYS of motherhood!

I can’t make this stuff up.


Meanwhile, I had 2 year old Clara, too, who was busy busy BUSY.  Anyhoo, I figured this scenario was the most relatable reason to voluntarily flee ones home in favor of … literally anything else.

While I changed the colors of the blog later on — the picture in this ad still says it all.

Ps. Aaand, I still can’t get any laundry done 😉
