Its Been Awhile: A New Vision

We're revamping things over at The Wild Paduanos! New look, new vision, new members. It's an exciting time! Photo cred: wes-hicks-wS9hvhqn4XU-unsplash

Oh. Em. Gee. Has it been a minute since we posted a blog and I am SO incredibly sorry. Things have just gotten so crazy with the new baby, this COVID-19 mess, and life in general. We have basically been on lockdown since Wildbaby was born and while I am usually a homebody, this has been a bit too much even for me. Because of this nonsense, my poor mother in law didn’t get to meet the new baby until Mother’s Day when she was 2 months old! Can you imagine how much that must have sucked for her? Ugh, I feel terrible. We broke the “rules” for the visit to happen, but I am so glad we did. Here is her 2 month pic:

However, all this forced down time has given me quite a bit of time to think. Mostly when both the kids are asleep and in the wee hours of the morning. I have been thinking a lot about my vision for this blog, for the business of The Wild Paduanos as a whole, and my goals in general.

As you can see, our blog has undergone a bit of a transformation. This is more encompassing of the overall vision that I have. We have added a shop page so that we can one day transition away from having our products solely on Etsy and one day expand into the greater plan that is brewing.

Right now I am in extreme brainstorming mode. I have notes all over the place at this point: my phone, my laptop, a bullet journal, and soon on our white board. I have to clean off the white board first because Wildchild drew all over it…and a bit on the wall underneath it. Kids lol. I’m basically trying to reverse engineer my way back from the ultimate goal I have to where we are currently at. It’s a bit of a process cause I am not currently sure what all the steps are. I will get us there eventually, so watch out world!

We’d love to hear from you, dear readers. Is there something you’d like to see featured on the blog or on social? A recipe, garden tour, etc? Let us know in the comments below and we will work on it for you!

NotSoLittleDude has been virtual schooling at his Mom's and here, hating it. Wildchild has continued with homeschooling and it's been a bit of a fight the last month. Hopefully this winter break will reset both of them.

I'm not really making any plans for 2021. I'm just trying to be a little bit better every day. Are you making plans or resolutions for 2021? Share them below!
    Anybody else running around the house like a crazy Anybody else running around the house like a crazy person, trying to recover from the holidays? Just me, ok. I neglected folding laundry for a few days and put washing our dirty #clothdiapers off for an extra day.

Yesterday I cleaned the kitchen and today I'm trying to get the laundry under control. Wildbaby isn't being very cooperative though. Her 4th tooth has just barely broken through and she's being slightly crabby over it. So I'm having to take a lot of breaks from folding and other cleaning.

#homeschooling is on winter break until NotSoLittleDude is back at his Mom's and I really should try to find time to plan for when we go back. Hard to do when @airaveli is working 6 days and you run #alltherrands on his 1 day off #justkeepswimming

I had to bribe the oldest into the PJs my sister sent. He wanted me to play Xbox and I agreed only if he put them on for this picture. He's glaring in defeat. I really won though because he wore them for 2 days 🤣🤣🤣🤣

We are just spending the day hanging out. What are your #solstice plans?
    Today has been rough. Wildbaby woke up even earlie Today has been rough. Wildbaby woke up even earlier than usual and this was after waking to nurse every 2 hours throughout the night 😫😫😫😫 She's barely napped today and is a #hotmessexpress except for this rare moment right now where she's playing with the toy tornado.

We missed part of our homeschool curriculum today though I might be able to just make it our bedtime story, kinda depends on how the next few hours go to see if we're motivated enough. The beauty of #homeschooling though is we can move things around as needed/wanted. Our family wouldn't function properly without this flexibility.
