I have so many hopes and dreams for Bastian, and for any future child that I have. I know I’m not alone as a parent, hoping my child is happy and well off. I find myself staring at my baby, telling him about what a great person he’s going to grow to be. I always […]

Awkward and Awesome Fridays
When I first started blogging when I was in highschool, at the end of every week I made a post called “Awkward and Awesome Fridays”. I would just do a little summary of all of the awkward and awesome things that had happened that week. Back then, my blogging was more just blogging about any […]
You and Me: One Month
The last month has been an absolute whirlwind. I’ve been told so many times that the days are long but the years are short, and I don’t think anything could be a more accurate description. Being a mom has been the most rewarding experience of my life, and I love being a mom to Bastian.

Best Nursing Bras for First Time Moms
When I was pregnant, there were a lot of things about postpartum life that I didn’t give a lot of thought to until right before Bastian was born. I was excited to start wearing all of my regular clothes again, and definitely looking forward to doing barre classes again(which I’m still waiting for). But something […]
Mountain Maternity Pictures
Bastian is two weeks old now, and it’s crazy how much he’s grown in just two weeks. I look at him every day and find it incredible that just a few weeks ago, he was still inside me! I had no idea what he looked like, and I spent every day anxiously awaiting his arrival. […]
