I feel lucky that Bastian and I had an easy breastfeeding journey. I know a lot of moms that weren’t able to breastfeed at all, or for more than a few months. Although our breastfeeding journey was never perfect, it was good. It was an incredible bonding experience for us. Since we have weaned, I […]

Postpartum Weight Loss Update: 13 Months

How to Take Milk Bath Photos
I posted a photo last week of Bastian and I in a milk bath. I did a similar shoot when I was 37 weeks pregnant last year. Because the maternity milk bath photos turned out so cute, I knew that I wanted to do it again when we hit our one year of breastfeeding. Since […]
The Best Summer Overalls

One of the worst parts of pregnancy, aside from the debilitating nausea and hyperemesis, was that I couldn’t find a good pair of maternity overalls that I felt like didn’t turn me into a whale. But that’s not the point. […]

Project You & Me: 12 Months
I blinked, and now Bastian is a toddler. How am I the mother of a toddler? Him growing up definitely comes with a unique set of challenges but we are loving every day with him. He’s cut 8 teeth, and didn’t give us a break for even a second before starting to work on the […]
4 Things I Learned Living in Salt Lake City: Bucket List Living
A few years ago, right before we decided to buy a house, Seth and I were driving home from visiting his family in Southern Utah. The housing market is considerably less expensive there, and he was trying to convince me to move(spoiler, it didn’t work). That got us talking about the cost of living in […]

One of my favorite things about traveling, is the food. I love getting to try as many different kinds of food as possible, to really get a taste of the culture of where I’m visiting. Whenever we travel somewhere new, we ask for recommendations for the best local eats. I don’t want to go to […]
