Life in this season feels full of change– new babies, teenagers gaining independence, and the daily rhythms that keep our large family moving forward.  In this episode, I share my real experiences with co-sleeping, freshly milled wheat, toys and clutter, pregnancy challenges, car seats, and the everyday questions you’ve asked about homemaking and homesteading.  I also talk about the farmhouse build alongside my sister, our different approaches to decision-making, and the long-term dreams I have for life on the farm.  Join me for this Q&A style conversation where your questions guide the discussion and I share the simple, intentional rhythms that shape our home and family! In this episode, we cover: My experience with co-sleeping through many babies, how my approach has shifted, and the safe sleep setups that work best for us Why I use freshly milled wheat in my baking and whether I’ve noticed any health differences in our family How we approach toys and gifts in our home— letting the kids enjoy them fully and then decluttering when the interest fades Pregnancy challenges I’ve faced, including varicose veins, and the simple things that help like magnesium and extra rest Our current car seat setup with a new baby on the way, plus the big milestone of having a teenager with a driver’s license and how quickly family dynamics shift Everyday homemaking and homestead questions— from spiders and ticks to kids’ haircuts, dishwashers, and the routines that keep our large family moving My thoughts on building our farmhouse at the same time as my sister, the differences between how we approach home decisions, and the long-term dreams I have for animals on our farm Listener questions on sourdough starters, selling our house plans, and other homemaking challenges, all bringing me back to simple, intentional rhythms View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.
