We had a blast celebrating Landon this weekend! I’m not usually a water park girl but even I had fun, at 7 months pregnant. I will say, the lazy river was not as lazy as I expected. I wasn’t paying attention as I was rounding up tubes and getting everyone situated when suddenly a huge bucket of water turned upside down on my head. Swipe to see my reaction right after. I don’t think Nate has ever been more pleased. 🤣 He has been waiting years for that moment.
Happy 7️⃣th birthday to my sweetest, smartest, Happy 7️⃣th birthday to my sweetest, smartest, most wonderful Landon! He and Daddy went and got donuts this morning and picked out some fun books/toys at Target! I told him last night as I tucked him in bed that I cannot believe he is already SEVEN, and he responded, “Well… I’ve just been living my life!” 🙃🥲 I can’t wait to celebrate him all weekend! I love you, Landon! 💕🎈🎂
27 weeks ✨ I can’t believe I’m so close to t 27 weeks ✨ I can’t believe I’m so close to the third trimester! The last few days have been a challenge. Nate and the boys spoiled me on Mother’s Day and by the end of the day I was completely wiped out. I’m at the point where my mind feels very motivated and excited to do things but my body is now in pain doing just about anything. I could honestly sleep all day but on the flip side, I can hardly sleep at night because that’s the most uncomfortable time for me. 

I’m trying so hard not to wish this time away. These are my last lil babies. This is the last time I will be pregnant. I feel so thankful and blessed. I can tell you right now that I never in a million years imagined myself as a twin mom and I certainly did not see myself with 4 kids! I remember being unsure we would even have two! 🤯 But now it all just feels so surreal and meant to be. I just can’t help but feel so ready to meet them!

This weekend we are celebrating the one who made me a mom as he turns 7! I don’t know how that’s even possible. It makes me realize just how fast these next few weeks are going to go. Time is flyiiinggg.
Thanks for the memories Islamorada! It was a wonde Thanks for the memories Islamorada! It was a wonderful treat to relax and experience a part of my home state that I’ve never had the pleasure of visiting! We will definitely be back, as Hargis party of 6, if we’re that brave. 😂🥳
Bumpin’ with these twins in the pool all day tod Bumpin’ with these twins in the pool all day today! So thankful for this time with @natehargis1987 to relax a bit before life gets a little extra wild and tiring, in the best way. ✨
I’m just here for the key lime pie mocktails.🍹😋
I think I’ll enjoy this view for a few days. 🥰
The beautiful weather this weekend was just what w The beautiful weather this weekend was just what we needed! Going to bed tonight excited for only two more days of work before some much needed relaxation.
Happy Easter! ✝️🐣 It has been a full day of Happy Easter! ✝️🐣 It has been a full day of celebrating over here! None of it would’ve been possible without Nate. He got off work and went to get a few last min presents for Cohen, picked up the cake, ordered pizza, filled all the eggs, and hid them. He sent me back to bed after lunch because I am still sick, but I was trying desperately to be better. 😐 

I’m just so glad Cohen had a good birthday and they got an egg hunt! Maybe next year we’ll make it to church with all four little ones!🤞🏻

Hillenmeyer Christmas Shop

Hillenmeyer Christmas Shop
Over the weekend Landon and I stopped into Hillenmeyer Christmas Shop. I have lived in Lexington, KY for 11 years and I had NO idea this magical Christmas wonderland existed. It is SO festive and I’m already thinking we need to make at least one more stop there in the next week or so since Nate wasn’t with us when we went. It is truly an old-fashioned Christmas experience! They have beautiful trees, wreaths, a living nativity scene complete with mini donkeys and sheep, a sleigh for the perfect photo opportunity with Santa when he’s there (but still fun even if he isn’t!), hot cocoa, marshmallows for roasting on an open fire (no seriously, there were free marshmallows), and so much more. I was in awe and completely overwhelmed because I wanted everything! It smelled like Christmas tree heaven in that place.

I met up with some friends who helped wrangle Landon a bit and they snapped some photos of us, which was super sweet! He carried a few marshmallows around and licked a candy cane until it was all over him. He spent the rest of the time with his tongue sticking out trying to get the stickiness off, so that is why his tongue is out or he’s contorting his face in the photos. Hahah. He HATES being sticky or having anything on his hands. I tried to wipe it off with a baby wipe but it just would not do.

I honestly can’t believe we’ve never been before but I sense a new holiday tradition in the making! Hillenmeyer Christmas Shop is a family owned business run by Joseph & Shannon Hillenmeyer. I had the pleasure of meeting Joseph for a brief moment (before running away to chase after my child) and he was so nice and welcoming! You can tell when you walk in that the people who work here put their heart and soul into it. I know we will be back for years to come!
