Sweet City Bows Bows for babies, headbands for mom.

I don’t buy bad books but I do buy old books! Seriously, if I don’t think it’s a good book, it’s not going on our shelves.

I’m a little picky about what we read because it shapes my kids lives whether they realize or not. The language, the rhythm, the illustrations, the lessons, they remember it all. Especially right before bed.

So I tend to reach for books that:
• have beautiful, rich language (not just quick, choppy sentences) - and yes they take longer to read.
• tell a complete story with a clear beginning, middle, and end
• feel calm and comforting, not chaotic or super silly right before bed
• have truly beautiful illustrations… not slapped together and AI-looking, but thoughtful, timeless, detailed artwork
• are worth rereading a hundred times without making me lose my mind

A lot of those end up being older, classic books. Not because they’re more literary per se, but because they were written to be read aloud and you can see and feel the difference on every page.

I don’t want these rich, meaningful books to be forgotten, so we keep them alive in our home by reading them frequently!

And honestly… if I’m going to read something 400 times, it better be good.

What’s the go to bedtime book in your house?

Instead of saying “how can I help?” and accidentally give her one more thing to think about, send one of these texts instead:

• “I’m bringing dinner Thursday. Any allergies?”
• “Text me your coffee order. It’ll be on your porch in the morning.”
• “Put your laundry outside. I’ll wash and return it tomorrow.”
• “I’m at Target - what size diapers is he in now?”
• “Dropping off lunch for you and mac & cheese for the kids.”
• “I can come hold the baby while you shower or nap. What time?”
• “I’m stopping by for 20 minutes to reset your kitchen.”
• “Trash day is tomorrow - I’ll take your cans out tonight.”
• “I’m ordering groceries for you. Give me 5 staples you need.”
• “I’ll take the older kids to the park for an hour this week.”

Notice the difference?

You’re not asking her to think.
You’re removing decisions from her plate.

That’s what actually feels like support in postpartum.

And one more thing most people don’t realize: ask if she wants company. Sometimes I was too tired to form a sentence but sometimes I just wanted to chat with an adult!

Save this so you know exactly what to send the next time a friend has a baby.

This is how you become the friend she never forgets.

3 months postpartum felt like the light at the end of the tunnel for me.

Not “easy,” but easier.
More predictable.
More confident.

Like I could finally start getting my footing again.

And then… I quite literally lost it.
Slipped, fell, broke my toe. Put the break in Spring Break, if you will. 🫣

Back to square one in some ways.
Back to asking for help.
Back to not being able to just do everything myself.

And if I’m honest, that part has been the hardest.

Not the pain.
Not the inconvenience.

The dependence.

I want to be the one doing it all.
Running the house, taking care of the kids, keeping things moving.

But maybe this is the reminder I keep getting in different ways - I’m not meant to do this alone.

Raise your hand if you’re learning that asking for help is okay too! 🙋🏼‍♀️

Hi, I’m Kailey.

I’m just rolling off maternity leave with my 4th baby… and things are not any less crazy over here.

This picture is a pretty accurate behind the scenes. My 3 year old took it, my 8 and 6 year olds are buckling my shoes, and I’m nursing the 3 month old. 🫠

We make it work even if it means the kids occasionally step in like the mice in Cinderella. 😂

I’ve learned that motherhood doesn’t get easier, you just get better systems.

That’s what I share here: practical ways to simplify your days, streamline your routines, find your style, and still feel like yourself in the middle of it all.

A few things I learned in October (that mostly made my life easier)

Go to the fair at 10am on a Tuesday - be done by lunch and home for naps!

College football can provide excellent number practice for kindergartners - “who’s winning?? Who has the bigger number??”

At some point, you just have to surrender to maternity clothes - even if it means wearing skinny jeans with sneakers 🤢

You can always change your systems - our new rule: fully dressed before breakfast. AKA toast in the car occasionally.

When you pick good literature for your kids, you tend to say yes every time they ask you to read. (By Pete the Cat…)

Don’t trick-or-treat if you don’t want to - my kids hate it so we didn’t do it! They were perfectly happy watching a movie in the front yard!

October wasn’t flashy, but it was full. 🧡 Tell me what YOU learned in October!
