Hey, sweet friends

Life lately? A whirlwind. Surviving winter with a baby in a house under major renovations has been no joke. Everyday tasks like laundry and cooking feel like an extreme sport when those areas are completely unheated and cut off from the rest of the house—and the rest of the family.

So, while construction chaos swirls around us, we’ve been hunkering down with schoolwork, making the most of our days. And of course, my little sidekick is right in the thick of it—she’s got serious FOMO and prefers power naps over long sleeps, making productivity an adventure. 😅

Between navigating a maze of a house, homeschooling my 7 and 8-year-old, and keeping up with daily life, I’ve also been pouring my heart into a secret project that I cannot wait to share! If you're curious, be sure to follow @timekeepersatelier for all the details soon! 🥰
