This month has held a lot of firsts for Bastian. He’s really starting to develop a personality. This morning, Seth was saying that he sometimes misses the spacey baby who looked at everything with the biggest eyes(his eyes are still huge, but he’s definitely starting to grow into them). I know I’m an entire week […]

Let’s Talk Motherhood: Summertime with Littles
Summer is usually one of my favorite seasons. I love going to the pool(even though I don’t really like swimming), going on walks in the sun, and eating shaved ice. I still love all these things, but summertime is definitely a little different this year, having a young baby and all that. I mean, my […]
Comparison is the Thief of Joy
I absolutely love what I do. I’m blessed to have the role in life that I do. I have a beautiful family, with an incredibly loving husband and the most beautiful baby boy. And I absolutely love my full time job, I know that’s rare. I’m also, somehow, able to find time to blog on […]

Why We Chose to Start Our Family Young
When Seth and I are out with Bastian, I sometimes wonder how many people look at us and wonder if we’re teen parents. I wouldn’t entirely blame them. Seth and I are young, and we look our age. We are definitely a young family. I’ve had a lot of people ask me why we chose […]
5 Easy Meals for Busy Moms
Before I got pregnant, I absolutely loved cooking. I grew up in a home where I started cooking at a really young age. While I was pregnant, I hated it. I hated standing for that long, and I hated the smell of food while it was cooking(I had hypermesis, so I avoided anything that had […]

My Favorite Nursing Dresses
One of the staple pieces in my wardrobe each summer has always been dresses. They’re light and comfortable, and they make you look put together even though we all really know putting on a dress is much easier than formulating an entire outfit. I struggled to find maternity dresses that I loved while I was […]
2 Months: You and Me
Wednesday marked 2 whole months since Bastian was born. How did this happen?? He has gotten so big and I feel like he’s barely my little baby anymore. He has really started to gain a personality. Everyone always told me that being a mom would just get more fun the older he got, and I […]
Raising Confident Children – Let’s Talk Motherhood
There are so many aspects to Motherhood, and every mother has different views on each subject. I think this is why it’s so important to hear the perspective of other mothers. Not only do their perspectives help us as we try to figure out how to be a mother(especially when you’ve only been a mom […]
Horseflies and a Growth Spurt
It’s Friday, which means it’s time for Awkward and Awesome Fridays! I always feel like there are so many things that happen during the week, and then I sit down to write this post and I realize all I did was sit at home with my baby. Haha. But that doesn’t mean there weren’t a […]
