虽然“夏天”这个词可能会召唤海滩日的无忧无虑的图像和幸福的家庭时间，但我们也知道这个无家可放的延伸可能是许多人的挑战时间。在塑造营地和托儿所之间，并试图去度假和为了完成工作，生活并不总是我们在feeds上看到的漂亮的过滤图片。为了获得一些现实(以及一些灵感)，我们邀请了全国各地最受欢迎的妈妈们来告诉我们她们2019年夏季的目标、计划和奋斗目标。此外，他们都分享了一些可爱的偷拍照片享受阳光季节，也让我们了解了他们的生活，自从我们上次通过他们的母亲概要文件。享受！

Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "I consider it a break from all of the structure that school and activities bring, but if by 'break' you mean relaxing, that would be a helllll no."
What are your biggest summer challenges? "My biggest struggle is not having a bigger block of time to take care of myself. Even if I’m having fun days outside with my kids, if I don’t take care of myself I start to feel sapped. So, I condensed a short routine that I do early in the morning—15 minutes of the #BBG workout that I literally do in my PJs most days and a few pages of long-hand writing. And then I eat really fresh healthy food all day."
Any big life updates that we should know about since your Mother profile? "My partner Seth and I rented a studio, a space for photo shoots and workshops and being creative with community. It’s located in San Anselmo, about 25 minutes north of S.F., and is called Convert."

您的夏季的目标和计划：“My main goal is to spend as much time as possible outside—hiking, tending to our garden, swimming, outdoor concerts, and reading on a blanket in a park. We don’t have any big plans except to chill out on all of our usual routines like bedtime, etc. This summer I want to practice being more spontaneous and letting my kids choose how we spend our days together."
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“我认为这是学校和活动带来的所有结构的休息，但如果”突破“你的意思是放松，那将是一个Helllll没有。“

@TheContinuumConference, that launches in November. It's powered by Mama Glow and will be in NYC! Outside of that, I am really aiming to just catch sunshine and write, rest, and spend time with my 16-year-old son when he isn’t at camp! Another big plan I have is to spend lots of time with friends. When it's cold, I never go see folks, so now’s my time for more parental playdates!"
Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "Yes, I do consider summer a time to be outdoors and take getaways. I will do drives upstate, beach trips, and simple things that are local like popping into The Met Museum or taking a walk through Central Park. When the weather is so nice like this, I like to wake up and spend time on my roof and read a book."
What are your biggest summer challenges? "Now with a 16-year-old, I am not facing childcare challenges. But I am still hovering over him and concerned about his mobility around the city. I want to be sure he is safe and in places where he’s around age-appropriate activities. My son received a scholarship to a summer music program and just got back and I really think he needs the structure. He will head into sports camp next week. But when he is home, there is the guilt that he is busy doing nothing and I was never allowed to just lounge when I was a kid, so I don’t allow it! I am all about doing something active, educational, or arts-related, in addition to community service, if you aren’t at a sleep-away program."

"Since we last checked in, I launched a global doula immersion program at Mama Glow. We have doulas from around the world working to address the maternal health crisis in this country and beyond. I am so thrilled that the program expanded internationally and is in Paris, L.A., New York, and the Miami program launches this November!"You can find out more about Latham and her business here and on her Instagram feed.

您的夏季的目标和计划：“我周围有一些扩张目标，这秋天会出现。我很兴奋的一件事是我们的新会议，@thecontinuumcomference.，11月发布。它是支持的妈妈的光芒而且会在纽约!除此之外，我真的只想晒太阳、写作、休息，在我16岁的儿子不在夏令营的时候陪他!我的另一个大计划是花很多时间和朋友们在一起。天冷的时候，我从不出门，所以现在是我和父母一起玩的时候了!”
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“是的，我确实考虑了夏天的时间在户外玩耍并拍摄。我将驾驶营地，海滩旅行，以及当地的简单的东西，就像进入遇到的博物馆，或者穿过中央公园散步。天气如此像这样很好，我喜欢醒来，花时间在我的屋檐上读书。“

Monterey Bay Aquarium being one of them. Both kids love watching fish swim around! Especially now that Wynter is finally walking, we can do more active things as a family. We plan to make regular trips to the park and the Oakland Zoo. We have yearly passes to the zoo, and it’s literally 10 minutes away from our house! There’s no reason why we shouldn’t be going!"
Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "Both kids are still not in school, so no breaks or slowing down for this mama! But there’s just something about summer that feels more fun and exciting, and you just want to do more things!"
What are your biggest summer challenges? "Right now our biggest challenge is finding activities that both my kids can enjoy together. They’re both so different in what they like to do and their abilities. So, we’ll just try all the things we can think of and see!"
Any big life updates that we should know about since your Mother profile? "At the time of my Mother profile, I had two babies who weren’t walking. Now I have two very active toddlers (especially Nova!) who are definitely walking! The days of crawling and scooting are no longer! Wynter just started walking about 4 months ago and it’s been very exciting for all of us! But the biggest life update is that Wynter will be starting preschool next month! I’m so happy and proud of her, but nervous, too! Both kids are growing up so quickly, and I want to cherish this time while they’re little, creating special memories that they’ll keep close and carry with them as they get older. And summers are perfect for that."

您的夏季的目标和计划：“我们作为一个家庭所做的大事是一个与少数好朋友的旅行，一个星期一周。这是如此美丽，我们有很多乐趣。孩子们在90％的时间外面播放！我们去了海滩！我们去了海滩, the parks, and explored as much as possible. It was exhausting, but so worth it! We aren’t real 'outdoorsy' people, but we want to become more comfortable going on trips like these and doing activities that will create some pretty awesome memories for us as a family. For the rest of the summer, we just plan to get outside more and visit places here locally in the Bay. There are a few exhibits I want to see, and places we have in mind we want to take the kids.蒙特里湾水族馆成为他们中的一员。两个孩子都喜欢看鱼游来游去!尤其是现在温特终于能走路了，我们一家人可以做更多的活动了。我们计划定期去公园和公园奥克兰动物园。我们每年都经过动物园，距离我们家有10分钟的路程！我们不应该去的原因！“
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“两个孩子都还没上学，所以这位妈妈没有休息或减速!”但是夏天让人感觉更有趣、更刺激，你会想做更多的事情!”
你最大的夏季挑战是什么？？“Right now our biggest challenge is finding activities that both my kids can enjoy together. They’re both so different in what they like to do and their abilities. So, we’ll just try all the things we can think of and see!"
我们应该知道以来的任何大生命更新母亲简介？“在我做母亲的时候，我有两个不能走路的孩子。现在我有两个非常活跃的幼儿(特别是Nova!)，他们肯定会走路!爬行和滑行的日子已经不复存在了!温特大约4个月前才开始走路，这对我们所有人来说都非常令人兴奋!但最重要的是温特下个月就要上幼儿园了!我为她感到高兴和骄傲，但也很紧张!两个孩子都长得很快，我想在他们还小的时候珍惜这段时间，创造一些特别的回忆，让他们在长大后能保持亲密，并带在身边。夏天最适合了。”

Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "Now that my kids are getting a bit older, their days are really packed during the school year. And I have been busier, too. I find time during the year to have my own space and downtime, so for me, summer is about recharging with my family."
What are your biggest summer challenges? "My biggest summer challenge is that once I have that summer feeling I don't want to go to work anymore! It's hard to live in a place like Boston where you wait so long for the weather to get nice, and not want to skip out of work on the perfect beach day. Don't tell my office!"
Any big life updates that we should know about since your Mother profile? "Too many to count I think. All good! Life keeps moving and changing and flowing. I just got back from a Peru trip documenting the artisans that make Misha & Puff come to life, and I am really excited to tell all the stories."

您的夏季的目标和计划：“重新连接。这是我的1号目标。在夏天来的时候，我们家里的每个人都需要少一些结构，更多的时间和空间只看到一天的领导者。让孩子们要稍晚，弯曲the no-T.V.-during-the-week rules, to be more carefree. I have been traveling a ton this year and so for me a vacation is just not going anywhere. Watering plants, doing an art project with the kids, and cooking dinner. Then sitting on our patio and drinking wine with my husband—that's the goal."
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“现在我的孩子们长大了一点，他们在学校的日子真的很满。我也更忙了。我在一年中找到了自己的空间和休息时间，所以对我来说，夏天是与家人一起充电的时间。”
你夏季最大的挑战是什么?“我最大的夏季挑战是，一旦我有那个夏天的感觉，我不想再去上班了！很难住在像波士顿这样的地方，你等待这么长时间才能让天气变得漂亮，不想跳过在完美的海滩日出业。不要告诉我的办公室！“
我们应该知道以来的任何大生命更新母亲简介？“我想太多了，数不清了。所有的好!生命一直在移动，变化和流动。我刚从秘鲁旅行回来，记录了让米沙和帕夫栩栩如生的工匠们，我真的很兴奋能讲述所有的故事。”

Natural History Museum in Santa Barbara (they have the best natural history museum in my opinion). We also plan to take little staycations in our Los Angeles area, as there are tons of places yet to be explored. We did a tour of all the local parks in the area and some were just amazing, like the Vincent Lugo Park in San Gabriel Valley. It's a hidden gem."
Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "Summer for us is more of a way to have more fun. We plan for Milo to be in a summer day camp during the week and on the weekends we try to keep it free to go on quick roadtrips or just explore our city. Planning around summer day camp has been a bit of a challenge, but we make it work. We plan to go to as many beaches as possible this summer on the weekend!
What are your biggest summer challenges? "Scheduling for us has been tough owning a business. Our team likes to go on vacation, as well, so we have to alter our schedule and accommodate as much as possible so that everyone gets to have some fun in the summertime. And camp has been a challenge, since it's such a short time during the day and I have to stop my work to go pickup Milo at 2 p.m. Trying to go back to work after pickup is a struggle when all you want to do is just hang out."
Any big life updates that we should know about since your Mother profile? "Yes, despite the complications of my pregnancy and health, we are exploring the option of possibly having our second child together. We are taking extreme care of my health and hoping it all works out for the best!"

您的夏季的目标和计划：“我们通常会在冬季和秋季繁忙的零售季节之后休假，但今年夏天我们决定保持简单，在本地做事情。我们开车去了圣巴巴拉，就躺在泳池边。我们也喜欢探索动物园和自然历史博物馆在圣巴巴拉（他们认为，他们有最好的自然历史博物馆）。我们还计划在洛杉矶地区留下一点留下，因为还有很多尚未探索的地方。我们在该地区的所有当地公园进行了一段游戏，有些人只是惊人，就像Vincent Lugo Park在圣加布里埃尔山谷。这是一个隐藏的宝石。“
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“我们的夏天更像是一种更有趣的方式。我们计划在本周和周末举办一个夏日营地，我们试图让它自由地继续进行快速的道路或只是探索我们的城市。规划夏季阵营阵营已经有点挑战了，但我们使它工作。我们今年夏天在周末举行尽可能多的海滩！
你夏季最大的挑战是什么?“对我们来说，经营一家公司很难安排时间。我们的团队也喜欢去度假，所以我们必须改变我们的时间表，尽可能多地适应环境，这样每个人都能在夏天得到一些乐趣。夏令营是一个挑战，因为白天时间很短，下午2点我必须停下工作去接米洛。当你想要做的只是在外面闲逛时，想要接完班回去工作是一件很困难的事情。”
我们应该知道以来的任何大生命更新母亲简介？“是的，尽管我的怀孕和健康的并发症，我们正在探索可能将我们的第二个孩子在一起的选择。我们正在追求我的健康，并希望这一切都是最好的！”

Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "Our office gets Summer Fridays, which is an incredible perk, especially when my babysitter is around! I love to spend special bonding time with each of my kids—taking Poppy for an outing, or bringing Kai to see friends—as well as take some much needed time to myself. My favorite things to do to decompress after the work week are to have lunch on my own, a mani pedi, and a good swim."
What are your biggest summer challenges? "So far this summer, it’s been getting used to having two kids, along with having a toddler who is old enough to appreciate camp and activities (a.k.a. I can’t get away with just play dates all summer)! Her art camp drop-off time is a little trickier than her school drop-off was—it’s too late for my husband to drop her off, and the earliest I can drop her off barely gives me enough time to get myself to the office for my first meeting of the day. So, in order to stay on track in the mornings, I have to keep things moving by playing games like 'racing' her to the car...as chaotic as it is, I’m loving the quality time we get to spend together!"
Any big life updates that we should know about since your Mother profile? (Ahem, baby!) "You got it! We have a 6-month-old baby boy, Kai! He is a full-on little dude now!"

您的夏季的目标和计划：“Goals are to make myself feel like it’s truly summer, which means squeezing in as many beach days as I can with the family!! I just want to enjoy this time—my kids are both at such special ages and it’s flying by too quickly!"
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“我们办公室有夏季周五，这是一项令人难以置信的福利，尤其是当我的保姆在旁边的时候!”我喜欢和我的每个孩子度过特别的亲密时光——带波比出去玩，或者带凯去见朋友——同时也给自己一些非常需要的时间。我下班后最喜欢做的减压事就是自己吃午饭，做个美甲，好好游个泳。”
你夏季最大的挑战是什么?“今年夏天到目前为止，我已经习惯了二孩子们，以及有一个足够大的幼儿来欣赏营地和活动（A.k.a.我无法逃脱，只是玩所有夏天的日期）！Her art camp drop-off time is a little trickier than her school drop-off was—it’s too late for my husband to drop her off, and the earliest I can drop her off barely gives me enough time to get myself to the office for my first meeting of the day.

lot for work. Last year, when I was still nursing Lucia and sleeping 2 hours a night, all I wanted was to be in a hotel room by myself. This year I'm eating Peach Rings and Sour Watermelons from the gas station and Starbucks Sausage, Egg, and Cheeses for breakfast 5 days a week and yearning for just a little more normalcy and routine, and a lot more time with my kids. I thought my Starbucks days were over when I turned 22, but I have been recently re-indoctrinated as it is the only coffee shop that opens before 7 a.m., and before 7 a.m. is the only time I've found to get any focused computer work before the rest of the world wakes up and starts bombarding me with needs. Are you rolling your eyes and thinking, 'Shit, that woman needs to sit her ass down and do some gratitude mediations?' Cuz if you are, I agree with you! Goals for summer 2019: learn how to eat vegetables again, put my body in water at least once, maybe start and finish reading a novel."
Do you view the summer as a break for yourself at all? "Summer this year is just like the other seasons, but sweatier and with more to feel bad about when I see other people doing 'summer break' stuff. And then I go down a rabbit hole of imagining how different life might look if Alex and I had chosen a more well-worn career path."
What are your biggest summer challenges? "The mosquitos in our backyard are vicious and render the outside spaces around our house entirely unusable from June to September. So, like, actually what's the point of summer if you don't have a summer break?"
Any big life updates that we should know about since your Mother profile? "Our team at East Fork, our production capacity, and sales velocity has doubled since then. The operational and human complexity and stress of owning and operating a manufacturing business has doubled along with it. I started taking an SSRI and in four days became a much more emotionally resilient human (thank you, modern medicine!). We're fostering a kitten! My kids started sleeping through the night, kind of, and so have I. They love holding hands. For as unbalanced, chaotic, and unsustainable as life feels right now, deep down I'm wildly happy and excited and proud of the work we're doing, in love with my beautiful babies, and still really into my husband, despite us still sleeping in separate rooms with a kid's feet in our faces."

您的夏季的目标和计划：“我今年夏天的目标是打破我春天发展的一些升级习惯。上周六我吃了一袋jalapeñocheetos，喝了一瓶香槟。喜欢，整个瓶子和整个包。这是一个非常准确的portrait of my M.O. these days. I've been on the road a很多工作。去年，当我仍然哺乳露西杉并每晚睡2个小时时，我想要的只是自己在酒店房间。今年我在加油站和星巴克香肠，鸡蛋和奶酪每周早餐和奶酪吃桃子环和奶酪，并渴望小的更正常的常规和常规，以及我的孩子更多的时间。I thought my Starbucks days were over when I turned 22, but I have been recently re-indoctrinated as it is the only coffee shop that opens before 7 a.m., and before 7 a.m. is the only time I've found to get any focused computer work before the rest of the world wakes up and starts bombarding me with needs.

Goals for summer 2019: learn how to eat vegetables again, put my body in water at least once, maybe start and finish reading a novel."
你把这个夏天看作是你自己的休息吗?“今年的夏天就像其他赛季一样，但是，当我看到别人做”暑假“的东西时，吹风机和更多的感觉不好。然后我走了一个想象不同的生活如何看待亚历克斯和我选择了一个更良好的职业道路。“
你夏季最大的挑战是什么?“我们的后院的蚊子是恶毒的，在我们家周围的外部空间从6月到9月完全不可用。所以，如，如果你没有暑假，那么夏天的角度是什么？”
我们应该知道以来的任何大生命更新母亲简介？“我们East Fork的团队，我们的生产能力和销售速度从那时起翻了一番。与此同时，拥有和经营一家制造企业的运营和人力复杂性以及压力也翻了一番。我开始服用SSRI类药物，在四天之内，我变成了一个更有情绪弹性的人(感谢现代医学!)我们在养一只小猫!我的孩子们开始通宵睡觉了，我也是。他们喜欢牵着手。不平衡,混乱,和不可持续的生活感觉现在,内心深处我非常高兴和激动和自豪的工作我们做的,爱我的美丽的婴儿,而且还真的变成我的丈夫,尽管我们仍然睡在不同的房间和一个孩子的脚在我们的脸。”
