Lio Turns Four

Sep

19

I can not believe how much time has passed since Lio Turned Four already! It’s been over a week since this epic day, celebrating our little gamer.

We started the day with a shopping spree at the dollar tree and orange cinnamon rolls! The house was filled with balloons, more Legos, and playdough galore before noon.

If your kid is under the age of 9 and you’re not utilizing the dollar store to make them feel spoiled, what are you even doing?! $20 goes soooo far. lol

Lio’s “Big” birthday present was his very own iPhone 7. I know “phones” have a huge stigma in young kiddos….but lets be real. It’s no different from a game console anymore. lol

In the evening, we went to grandma Lisa’s & Pop-pop’s for a pizza party with family. They spoiled Lio with Minecraft Legos!

Note that James won his first “food eating contest” at the pizza party. Photos below. If you know the “Wellman Family Legacy” for food eating competitions, you know this was a pretty hilarious moment. Completely unprompted, he downed a slice of pizza like you wouldn’t believe.

We have a tradition in our family to bring the birthday boy to pick out their cake on their birthday! Lio picked a blue cake giggling “our mouths will all turn blue, hehehe.” He wasn’t wrong! He wanted to see everyone’s tongue!

After the Pizza Party, we went back home & Clynn helped Lio put together all his new legos. I love seeing how special we can make our kiddos feel on their birthdays. Mission accomplished. Happy Birthday, Lio!

Lio is really into Legos, Minecraft, & Roblox these days.

We hope 4 is your most fun year, yet!

Hi! How are you? Thinking of lots of my clients lately and hoping you’re doing well no matter where life has taken you! I’ve been laying low. Loving on my kiddos, friends, sisters, and partners. They’re all taking great care of me, too! Working my booty offf. Trying to eat healthy and navigate adulting more […]

The in between

Life has been very romantic lately. Unknown and confusing and both flighty and grounded all at once. I remember being 14 and seeing my entire life by your side. Life is wild. I remember a water bottle and abandoned bleachers. I remember axe body spray and the way I had never been kissed. I know […]

Nirvana & I think of you

I hope you know better than to think I’d want to be anywhere but here right now. It was true on NYE and it’s true right now in my car outside the café. This may have felt seamless. Too seamless. Happenstance. But I’m here on purpose, now. I see your soft heart and I see […]

I hope you know better

You’ll walk through a glittering white veil, uncharacteristically soft compared to what you’ll find behind it. It has no need to keep you out. You quickly realize it’s the aura within that turns most around. The texture disorients. I’ll already be inside. What do you see? Upon first impression, you’re in a desert. Interesting considering […]
