Making the most of every day. Savoring every baby giggle that’s turning into belly laughs as he’s finding out how hilarious his pinching tickling others can be. Seriously, ouch!
“Mamí, ooo ooo ahh ahh!” she shouts, muddy knees dangling from the low branches of the guayaba tree in the yard. She’s clearly a monkey, climbing high into both trees and the bigger digits of her growth chart.
Babies don’t keep. Toddlers don’t either, for that matter.
That’s why I decided to take a year off from blogging.
But I missed you, so it was only 5 months.
During this time I’ve also started my own maternity and newborn photography biz here in Costa Rica! Eek!
And I’ve got great news for ya…….
Jellibean Journals is back!
Parenting tips, dentist-unapproved dessert recipes, cloth diapering advice, blogging info, and the truth about living in Costa Rica and travel tips for everyone with wanderlust are all comin’ your way in 2015!
Stay tuned for an outstanding secret to creating BIG Google juice for your blog posts later this week! And be sure to follow along with my new photography adventures via Instagram!
So what’s the most effective tactic for blogging better? LIVING LIFE!
That’s right- get out there and be a tourist in your own hometown, create ginormous messes baking with your kids (I promise, you’ll live to tell about it!), and thank God for each special moment and person in your day that you’d never live without!
xoxo,

Yay! We have missed you, too! I am glad you are back to writing, and I am glad that you were able to take time off and start your photography business! Also, I am jealous you have a guayaba tree!

Thanks so much, Chelsea! We are actually house-sitting right now and these folks have that fantastic tree. My daughter will miss it when we leave next week! Hope you’ve gotten off to a fantastic 2015 yourself!
