Somehow it’s been a whole year since this little man turned our world upside down and blessed us with his early arrival (classic youngest child behavior to demand all the attention, lol). It feels like a lifetime ago and it feels like yesterday. Since the moment I saw his face and heard his scream, […]
Had I known this was our last day together like this, I would have rubbed that belly about a thousand more times. I would have captured those baby kicks onto my iPhone, even if it had taken hours to get it just right. I would have played you those lullabies and sang along. Had […]
It’s amazing how you can be surrounded by such amazing human beings all day and still feel lonely. I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that right now my desire for adult interaction is at an all-time high. I wear many hats as a Stay At Home Mom (SAHM). I Chauffeur my kids back […]
With Easter arriving a little earlier than usual year, it provided some additional challenges for my family. The weekend fell right between the end of my husband’s Spring Break and the beginning of my kids’ Spring Break. Since we really wanted to be home at church for Easter, that made any sort of Spring […]
So, February is here! That just happened! Anyone feel like January just flew by? Between traveling, a teething baby, some major sleep deprivation and running and gunning with my new business…I blinked and it’s time to turn the page on the calendar!

Two Stitch Fix in one week?!? What is this world coming to? In case you missed my LIVE video on Facebook earlier this week (if so…shame on you!), let me explain why I’m doing ANOTHER Stitch Fix post. My last Fix wasn’t everything I had dreamed, and yet it was soooo close to being […]
Christmastime is upon us. Which means families are asking for wish lists and asking what size clothes I wear. But what normally is a very straightforward answer for me, feels like a novel of a response right now. Finding postpartum clothes to fit your body can be like… (insert funny, awkward, and slightly uncomfortable […]
This weekend had something to offer for each of us this weekend – a little self-care, arts and crafts, a birthday party, lots of fresh air, and a fair share of downtime! Even though it was a holiday weekend, my husband still had school on Friday (gasp!) and the kids must have had a […]
When we first moved here, those first couple weeks/months were rough. It was when my cousin told me about this park on the hill that I discovered my little happy place in the midst of my loneliness. I find that it is still the first place I go back to when I’m having a difficult […]
