Welcome Gwenevere “Winnie” Mae

It’s been a month since little Winnie has been in our arms, and I honestly don’t know how it’s already been that long! After your first child, days, months, and weeks really are a big blur. Time goes quicker than that little…

Happiness is Homemade

Isn’t it though? You can create your happiness and joy. Your circumstances may be dim, but you can choose happiness. I know it’s a lot easier said than done, but that’s what we’re trying to teach our girls…and even ourselves…

Stay at Home Spring Break

I know a lot of you guys are still in the negatives up North and out West, but that doesn’t stop spring break daydreaming. We don’t have big plans for spring break since the girls are only in preschool, but they do&nbsp…

Creative Play with Shape Mags

Who tries to set some type of schedule for your kids while they’re at home? I’ve been trying to be more intentional this past year of having some type of plan to follow on the days the big girls don’t go to…

Disney Trip 2018

DISNEY!I’ve been so lazy in writing posts over the past couple months…okay really the past nine. I don’t know what it was about being pregnant, but I had a little less motivation to work during nap time. I wanted to zone…

When Your Mom Instinct Takes Over

My heart is still racing just typing this out. My mind is flowing with the what ifs and could have beens. This post won’t have any pretty photos and possibly not even thoughts that are strung together well, but it had to come out…

Seven.

It’s been seven whole years since we said “I do.” Some days it feels like just yesterday our love story began and others it feels like you’ve always been a part of me. I know that’s super cliché, but it is what…

Casual LBD

casual-lbd

We may have just gotten back from Florida, but I’ve got a couple things to show you before I go straight to the vacay pics! And honestly, not even too many photos from the vacation! You know when it’s all just a whirlwind…like a literal whirlwind. It was SO windy there. It never died down. I think I touched the sand three times, and not more than five minutes either of those times. Kind of a bummer, but we got some good family time in with Kevin’s family. It was really refreshing. And now I want…

these-are-a-few-of-my-favorite-things

As a mom, I need things that are quick, easy, accessible, organized, healthy, practical, but still pretty! I’ve rounded up some of my favorite things I’m loving this spring:Floral Booties (mine are sold out, but here are some similar ones)Belly Bandit Bandita Nursing BraThis bra is a little piece of Heaven. Seriously. It doesn’t even feel like I’m wearing it under my clothes, which is exactly what everyone wants out of a bra! I definitely need another one, because it’s one of those pieces that you hate to have to wash. It…

vintage-spring-style-with-jord

We’ve been spending so much time outside since the spring has started. Less TV. More fresh air. Less time at the stove top. More time at the grill. Less time picking up toys. More time picking wild flowers.I recently had an amazing opportunity for a collaboration with Jord, but since I had already won one of their AMAZING watches from Debbie at To Thine Own Style Be True, my husband got a chance to try one out, and it’s become one of my favorite statement pieces. (I may have to steal it from time to time…except…

Quiet Game

quiet-game

Good graphic tees are a must. I remember I used to search for just the perfect saying that fit my life. Annnnd, at this point in my life, I think I found the perfect one again! It’s from Brave Little Ones. Besides the gray I’m wearing, it comes in a dusty rose as well.   Let’s Play The Quiet Game! I actually haven’t used this technique on Hallen yet, but I think it’s about time. Next time she plays her whining game, I’ll tell her it’s time to play my quiet game, and…

Comm-Ci Leggings

comm-ci-leggings

Leggings are where it’s at today for the ladies, right? We go to parties for leggings, join lots of groups online, and have our favorite page that we stalk just to find the perfect pair. The pair that we must have! And I’ve been a part of all of these groups. I LOVE leggings. I’d say I’m a legging guru, actually. I wore leggings before leggings were actually pants ha! I loved when people finally admitted…yes…leggings can be worn however you want them, and you can wear them whenever/where ever you want!So…

Family Daze

family-daze

We’ve been having such a great time over the past week. As all of you southerners know, it’s been staying in the 70’s…not that it should come as a huge surprise. Spring always comes a the same time every year! It’s just nice when the warmth actually hangs on instead of having a surprise frost in there! Kevin has had shorter days at work since he’s at a slower phase in construction right now. So, that means more family time. More time to explore. More time to do spring cleaning and spruce things up…

Wicked Good Vibes

wicked-good-vibes

An exciting release is happening tomorrow at one of our favorite small shops, Wicked Good Vibes…and no it’s not an April Fools joke. She’s introducing a hand-sewn line, and Hallen got the honor to model one before the release! It’s the most adorable polka dot romper. And it even has pockets! I know we all love our clothes that have pockets in them 🙂 It’s such a versatile romper. Hallen literally wore it three days in a row (maybe four ha!), and it looked like a different outfit each time! Above, I just grabbed some…

soundbub-music-to-my-ears

For the past week, we’ve been lucky enough to try out SoundBub. We have Ollie the Owl, but they come in a few different animals. It’s a portable white noise machine/speaker. Where ever we go, he goes too. You can attach it to a carseat, an Ergo, a high chair, prop it on the table or ground, or just place it near your child.Hazel is a relatively easy going baby, but the one thing she needs help with is falling asleep, so I was beyond excited to give SoundBub a try. It comes with two soothing…
