Hey there, mamas! Ever since I shared one of Taya's 6-month milk bath photos the other week on Instagram, I have had some mamas reach out asking for tips... ... and since this photoshoot didn't go *exactly* the way I had planned it, I figured I'd share my experience and give some tips on what I learned!

CWS Happenings
Hey loves! Happy September! I'm glad to be seeing a new month because a new month always makes me feel refreshed and it reminds me that it's okay to press the "reset" button. I have been struggling with a lot of things lately. From balancing Taya's naptimes between blog work and housework... all of the way to focusing on myself and my needs as a new mama.

6 Years Of Blogging
I'm so happy that YOU are here to celebrate with me today! Six years ago, I launched Coffee With Summer with a fiery passion in my heart and fresh coffee in hand.

What's up? What's up?! How is your summer going? Summertime (and everything) looks a lot different this year but I hope you're making the most of it.
