Hey all! I’m Hannah and, I’m going to be so for real, I’ve kind of lost who I am, haha! It’s hard to see myself as anything more than mom most days. At 3 months PP, I’m still trying to reintegrate myself back into.. well…myself. However, I have begun to find what makes me feel like me again slowly but surely! One is that I’m a creative through and through-- I love making things with my hands, be it through sewing, jewelry crafting, card making, or just writing. I just love creating for people I care about, or being able to show my hard work through the stitches I make. I also love fixing things! I’m one of those people that will sew back up things that would otherwise bite the dust. Just last night I was able to repair my baby’s blessing dress (which was once mine)! Lastly, I’ve discovered that I’m a photographer! Nothing professional, but I love the outdoors and capturing it’s beauty!.. and of course my baby’s face is a frequent subject now!🤣 I’m excited for this week as we’ll have many chances for beautiful nature photos on a family vacay! I honestly can’t wait to see what else I find out about myself as time progresses. Remembering my passions has been reinvigorating, and makes me excited to share with my daughter one day! ![1000005942](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/momcozy/original/2X/2/26b502f85bb607a73607895d7c7f5bf8867fb45c.jpeg) ![1000004556](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/momcozy/original/2X/b/b590bb9301cb2d74f2411ae8a7f3c421b623d5ce.jpeg) ---

I’ve lost so much you started off by saying you kind of lost yourself because I still feel that way and I have felt that way since becoming a mom. ---

This is so relatable! 😂 I literally just got done yelling at my hubby because he gets to take a nap while I’m on my 3rd round of washing dishes, cleaning, etc. I had to check myself because it’s really not that serious… or at least that’s what I’m trying to tell myself lol. 😂 I’m saying all this because lately I’ve been feeling like EVERYONE’S “mom,” and sometimes I’m like… okay, but who’s taking care of me?! I am saying this with love 😂😭 You can already tell you have such a good eye for photography. Your family vacay sounds like it’s going to be so beautiful, too definitely the perfect opportunity to capture some more of those moments! ---

Thanks for sharing. I just purchased an embroidery kit to learn a new hobby hopefully to keep me doing stuff. Look like you are getting a good start on yours. ---

I’m almost finished with the one I posted! It’s actually an old picture lol recently I detoured though and am doing a punch needle kit which has been a fun project! A lot less intricacy than some embroidery kits require but still a ton of fun! I hope you love embroidery! It’s quite soothing once you find a rhythm!
