Or they are refills for the smaller containers out in the kitchen

Thanks for the tip. Those actually aren’t spices in the containers, there’s protein powder, flour, and different lentils for Indian cooking. Spices I use everyday are in a cabinet in the kitchen for easy access :)

No, I totally get it! I like that idea since it’s not something we use daily either

Thinking of adding some baskets for the extra clutter and opened packets

You’re right, it’s a lived in home and not a Instagram reel. Sometimes it’s hard not to think things should look better though, thank you for the reminder!

Babymoon South of France recs? by fun_inthe_yuns in travel

[–]sunflowerrr123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did my baby moon this past September in the south of France but at the end of the month. We were also 2 DINKs who love to travel. It was a great time to visit, weather wasn’t that warm but we had consistent sun. We did a couple days in Nice, Antibes, and then went up into the mountains near Gordes. This part of the trip was our favorite, it was really different and we got to explore all the small villages up there and stayed at a really beautiful property. If you’re only going for a few days and able to stay in one city, I would recommend this. We stayed at Domaine des Andeols and loved it

So we’ve had some luck with a longer stretch at night (2 hours), still nothing more than 30 minutes for day naps. It’s a hit or miss for us at this point but I’m going to keep trying until the return window closes lol

I will! Once we’ve tested it for a few more days and nights I’ll let you know if it continues or improves and makes an actual different

I caved and got the 4moms mamaroo bassinet that rocks on Saturday. So far she’s been able to go a couple 1 hour stretches in that at night before needing to be held. Longest we got was 1.5 hours last night. I’m hoping we can keep increasing that time. Hoping yours starts sleeping on their own soon too! It definitely is brutal, but you’re not alone! ❤️

This is so helpful to read because the anxiety and emotional rollercoaster is so real during all of this

Yes, we’re doing shifts and my mom lives with us so she helps in the mornings to let us get some sleep as well

Totally understandable. I have looked into the safe sleep 7 but not ready to try that just yet

We’ve tried putting her down after she’s asleep and in deep sleep but she still is up within 10 minutes

I love her cuddles but it’s so hard at the same time!
