Closing my Etsy shop was a hard decision to make, but it had to be done. There are many reasons why I closed it down, the first reason is that it wasn't working. I did everything that every blog, video, and email newsletter told me to do to succeed. It had been 2 years of me doing my best with the time and attention I have to give to it. So I made my Amazon Handmade shop and closed down my Etsy. Amazon is less about the seller and more about a good price, so it works for me and my limited time and attention. I make my product, take photos, list it, and forget about it until it sells. I like that and with an almost 2 year old, a 3 week old, and an in home daycare that is what I need. I also sell out of two boutiques here in North Carolina, but dropping off inventory and getting a check every month works for me as well.
Aava
I figured now is as good a time as any to announce that I had a baby!! She is 3 weeks old and her name is Rheina. She is a beautiful and sweet baby girl and we couldn't be happier with our new addition. Aava, my almost 2 year old, is doing amazing with her. She is gentle, sweet and hasn't been jealous or rough with her. I feel so happy and grateful for my life. I have never really touched on my marriage or anything about my husband in fact, but we are so happy with our family and we are really loving life right now. It has been a difficult adjustment for him as he is not used to having so many new responsibilities with Aava, but he is getting used to it and becoming very helpful.
Many more updates to come in future blogs. Have a great day and I will speak to you in my next blog! Please leave a comment telling me how you handled introducing your baby to your older children, I would love to hear about it and talk.
