Since this year is his golden birthday and we will be moving a couple hours from our friends in the next few months, I wanted this birthday to be extra special. As a host of kid birthday parties ...

My son's only request was for a Mandalorian themed party, so I put together a simple and inexpensive little party for the three boys. There is not much on Pinterest yet for Mandalorian birthday party themes, so I ...

Kid’s Cowboy Birthday Party

My son's obsession with cowboys and old westerns was the heart of this birthday bash! He wears a bandana, cowboy hat, belt, and lasso about every day. As soon as he gets off the bus from school he changes into his cowboy get up and with his cap gun in his little leather holster, runs around the ...

Our Boho Backyard Montana Wedding Reception

I wasn't sure if I would break this all up into multiple posts or not. So here it is, one really long info-packed post about our ...

Intimate Boho Ceremony In The Woods

It's hard to believe that it's only been about six weeks since we got married in our backyard. It was a very warm and sunny day that went by in a blur. Now I am sitting here looking out my window with a dusting of snow on the ground and a pumpkin spice candle burning on my table. How fast time flies ...

My how time flies!
Have you ever heard of a nursing strike ? I had no Have you ever heard of a nursing strike ? I had not until I experienced this with Theo the past 2 days 😩 He refused to nurse for over 40 hours and I have been an absolute mess. He would be screaming one minute, happy as a clam the next. Waking up at 4 AM and not napping all day & would push me away and scream every time I tried to nurse him. I was in so much pain and beyond engorged. I tried pumping every few hours and the first day that worked just fine but then today my milk just would not let down and it took 45 minutes to get just over 2 ounces of milk! Last night he did finally take a bit from a sippy cup of my milk and was eating purees and snacks like normal, but just would not nurse. I called his Dr. yesterday and she had no idea what it could be. I was afraid I was going to get mastitis or that my milk would dry up or that there was something really seriously wrong with me or with Theo. I was texting my best friend just utterly exhausted and frustrated and at my wits end. 
Then around 2:00 just 15 minutes after I texted her to vent, I tried ONE more time to nurse him and he nursed!! I cried happy tears and thanked Jesus over and over. 
I never got to breastfeed my first, so this has been an all new journey with Theo. Lately nursing seemed to be getting more difficult and I was getting a bit burnt out with it- being the only one that can feed him and that he still wakes 3+ times a night to nurse... but I will never take it for granted again. What a blessing it is to be able to nurse. I am so tired I could cry again just typing this out😭 
After trying EVERYTHING it suggested to do online, he finally nursed and I can breathe again. I have no idea what was wrong, but he's nursing again normally and took nice long nap this afternoon 🙏 
Anyone experience anything like this before ?
