Everything Changes

Lately things have been rough around here. We’re going through some growing pains as a family I suppose. And it’s hard. And it’s a lot of work. And frustrating to say the least. I know that this will pass. Just like the last growing stage we went through. But, it feels like it will always be this hard when you’re in the moment. My youngest is at that stage where he wants to be held and entertained at all times. But he’s not the only child I have to take care of. Or my only … [Read more...]

F-it Friday Link Up Party

Hey! Hello! Sorry for no party last week. We decided it might be a good idea to get our two oldest boys their yearly shots right before a 6 hour road trip to Grandma’s house. Annnd, did I mention that I didn’t have a chance to pack until the morning we were supposed to leave? No? That’s how we roll.   If you have a chance you should head over to the Bloglovin Collective that I am co-hosting this week as well! I love Bloglovin. It’s awesome-sauce.   And … [Read more...]

Hey! I’m big now!

I seriously have to step back and marvel at how quickly this little guy is growing. It’s so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day around here. And I’m sure all of you Moms out there with little ones can totally relate. Some days it feels like I turn around and it’s bedtime and others feel like they are never going to end. Yesterday I decided to give this little dude some rice for the first time. He is becoming interested in food and is going through that never satisfied phase. He … [Read more...]

Untitled-1.jpg

If you follow this blog or me personally on any of my social media you know that I love me some chevrons! And I’m kind of a nautical junkie. I do draw the line at portholes hanging on my walls… sorry husband! I have BIG plans for the teeny tiny’s nursery. He is now 4 (almost 5 months) old and I have only made the changing pad covers as of yet. So I have a LOT of work to do. In our house the nursery will also be our guest bedroom.

Spring is here! It’s really, really here! haha The past two weeks of April we have been outside more than in, so I would have to concede that in fact Spring is here. Woo hoo! A few great things are happening this month for my family. My Mom’s birthday is right around the corner, then Cinco De Mayo and then my husband turns the big 3-0. And yes, that’s how I remember I tell myself, “mom’s b-day… cinco de mayo… John’s birthday”, I’m kind of a horrible person when it comes to … [Read more...]
