Where’s the Pancake?

Hey there! Welcome to The Girl in the Red Shoes. I’m Julie, wife to Jon, and mama to three little redheads: Hudson, Sadie, & Annabelle. I LOVE celebrating the little things, chasing around my crazy crew, over-posting on Instagram, and blogging about daily life, keeping it real, and all things motherhood. So happy you’re here!

Public Service Announcement: It’s okay if you do

Public Service Announcement: It’s okay if you don’t have the energy, desire, or even the space right now to decorate your home for fall. If it brings you joy, then go on ahead and do it. But if decorating just makes you more tired or overwhelmed then just….don’t. And if you are like me and kinda fall in the middle somewhere, and your table looks like mine - a mix of pretty and messy, then that’s okay too. I bought myself a bouquet of wild flowers. And some dollar spot pumpkins. Because it made me happy. And my table looked cute for about five minutes. But then the kids got out their art projects and play-doh and school work and legos AS THEY DO and here we are. I could have cleared it all off to make it more instagram worthy. But this is what my life looks like right now. And if this is what yours looks like too, then I am officially telling you it’s still beautiful. And I’m giving you permission to let it go.

All my kids AND the puppy in one frame and all it cost me was 3 popsicles, 2 dog treats, 6 quarters, and a half a year off my life.

These two are as thick as thieves. Especially when a lollipop is involved.

Today would have been Belle’s first day of preschool. She’s watched her siblings attend preschool her entire life and cried at every drop off because she couldn’t go too. So it breaks my heart not to be sending her to school today, when it was finally her turn. But instead I’m choosing to not dwell on what could have been and we are instead embracing homeschooling together. And just to be clear, by “homeschool” I mean adventures outside, playing dolls, coloring, painting, and playing with play-doh. So basically just like our normal days. Good thing she doesn’t seem to mind.

E I G H T. Happy birthday to the boy who made me a mama. I love everything about you, even the parts that drive me crazy. And your mullet too.

For those asking how Belle and Ruby are doing while the big kids are at school.....I’ll leave this right here. They are juuuuust fine.

Kindergarten and 2nd grade here we come! I can’t believe I have two kids in school (fingers crossed it stays that way!). This year is weird but their excitement over finally being back to school was so contagious! Do great things my big brave kids! Mommy loves you to the moon and back a million times forever.
