Hey there Friday! 👋🏽
✨
Because there are a few new faces I thought I’d share some fun facts for you to get to know me a bit better!
1. I’m an empath + #enneagram2w3
2. Dark chocolate + deep conversations and a glass of wine are my love language 🍷
3. I immediately go into a fetal posturing when I see a balloon or hear fireworks. I have some crazy PTSD of loud noises.
4. My dream job ( besides what I’m currently doing ) is to be a @nascar driver despite having a fear of roller coasters. 🏎
5. I throw with my left hand but do everything else with my right.
6. I think cheese is it’s own food group 🧀
7. My style is all comfort - jeans, tshirts, baseball caps and sneakers.
8. I still don’t know how to curl my hair #thisis34
9. I started blogging 10 years ago as a side gig, turned accidental business. It’s changed my life.👩🏻‍💻
10. I’m a intro/extrovert. I love spending time with friends and family but also want to be home by 9p to read and decompress.
✨
Also- this sweatshirt is a dupe for my favorite Aerie sweatshirts! Be sure to check it out! Tell me something about you! http://liketk.it/2WN3E #ltkunder50 #ltkstyletip #ltkfall #sweaterweather #walmartfinds #caitscozyfashion

Someday my daughter will change the world.

I just have to survivor raising her first 🙈
✨
Since day one this girl has kept me on my toes. Her determination, passion and drive is one thing Zach and I love but also have fear over. She can come off as bossy to some and extremely persistent to peers and adults. I mean..girlfriend knows what she wants right!?
✨
Raise your hand if you are also raising strong willed ladies. 🙋🏻‍♀️ May we all support and continue to do our best to keep them alive before they take over. Also- these blue light glasses from @kirbycoversonline have the cutest pair for your kids! Lily’s been wearing them while virtual #elearning and she adores them. Check my stories for more details! #chicagoblogger #caitscozykids #strongwomen

I spy the cutest sweater for fall!

If you’re looking for a light weight, cozy pullover to dress up for drinks with the girls or pair with jeans and sneakers to grab some pumpkin- this sweater is your go too!

Our front porch was in major need of some sprucing up for fall. The problem is where can you find all the cute decor for a great price !?
✨

#itdidnotruinher TRIGGER WARNING:

A few months after having my daughter, I sat alone in a dark corner of a room. It was 1:30 in the morning and I had just finished attempting yet another unsuccessful nursing session. I was shaking, snot crying and felt useless. I hadn’t slept in a few weeks because she was clustering feeding, it was too cold to get fresh air and despite showering, I still smelled like soiled milk.

What if she’s better off without me? Maybe I should ... .Those words crept slowly from a dark place and it was then I realized my knuckles were white and I was holding my breath. Am I going crazy? Why am I thinking these awful thoughts? What’s wrong with me?!

I remember talking about this moment to my therapist, ashamed and embarrassed and was even more alarmed to hear how often she hears mothers share this same thought process after having children. You’re not alone. In fact ..

The highest risk of suicide is between 9 and 12 months postpartum. Maternal suicide is the leading cause of postpartum death in multiple developed countries, and possibly the US- however, our country does not report maternal suicide rates. It’s important to know these facts, but more important to understand that this is a preventable crisis. We can all bring our stories into the light to help reduce stigma and spread awareness. Tap the hashtag #itdidnotruinher to read more of our stories.
If you or someone you know needs help, call the PSI warmline at 800-944-4773. If you are in crisis, text HOME to 741741 from anywhere in the US at any time. The National Suicide Prevention hotline can also be reached at: 800-273-8255.

“The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear or love. What seeds will you plant there?” -Buddha
✨
Caught these three in our garden and Zach’s shirt dripping with sweat. I burst out that it looked like a heart and snapped this picture. Watching our kids enjoy planting seeds, pulling out the vegetables and eating them has been such a highlight for us this past spring/ summer. I know they love it as much as we do.

Flowers. Cookies. Hugs. Gift cards.
✨
You all leave me speechless with how thoughtful you are. I’ve been sent some of the sweetest messages while we navigate the next few days from my #retinaldetachment surgery.
✨
I can’t answer all the questions individually so I wrote a blog post to share my warning signs, surgery and post op. I hope it can help someone too.

Do you know or have you had this surgery before?! Are a flowers - food or gift card giver !? #chicagoblogger #flowers #caitscozycorner #windycitybloggers
