finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
It has been years since I shared an about me round up and seeing that today is my half birthday (oh yes, we totally celebrate those around here!) I figured, why not? Here’s to thirty one and a half! Enjoy this list of random facts about yours truly! Cookies are my weakness. Especially these … […]
Tonight I’m watching Billy Graham: An Extraordinary Journey. It was on TV shortly after he passed, but I bet it’s available somewhere … OnDemand or something. Anyways, it’s so good. I’ve always been a fan of biographical reports, but this one is extra special to me because I accepted Jesus into my heart at one […]
Hola from E and me! Is he not just the sweetest dumpling? I can assure you he smells, feels, and sounds just as precious as he looks …#boymomforlife. I got all sappy the other day thinking that someday it’s just going to be me and him at home someday (Dom too, but you know what […]
We’ve been baking up a storm and ringing in the holiday in other little ways while we prepare to move. No tree yet, holding out for the new house, but we do have a lovely wreath thanks to Max’s preschool fundraiser. I feel a bit out of sorts packing and still adjusting to a new […]
I’m back to running (more like walking, jogging, walking, jogging) a few times a week and I used this pretty fall leaf as an excuse to pause and catch my breath :) Who has a bread machine? I can’t wait to try this French bread recipe! I’m so intrigued by the Enneagram. Loving podcasts lately […]
Well, my top favorite thing is obviously when these two ^^^ pause the bickering and show the love I know they have for each other. Max shed real tears the last night Jem was gone visiting family overnight because he missed her so much! But, I also wanted to share a few favorites you could actually […]
Is it possible to mother four children WITHOUT babywearing? I think not. Logistically, my life would not be possible if I wasn’t able to wear Eli and thus, be hands free. Because Eli wants to be close (and I want him close!) and Reid’s face needs to be wiped and Max needs help zipping his coat and […]
Who else is just smitten with fall? Two hands, two boots, and a venti pumpkin spice americano with extra cream way WAY up for me! Currently, the crew and I stay home a lot (because it’s hella hard to leave with 4 people fully clothed, fed, and happy). But, when cabin fever strikes I just have to […]
Last week was my birthday! The big 3-1. So, I thought I’d write up a favorites post related to birthday presents, because who doesn’t love a little present round up? Some of these things I bought for myself (because my kids don’t know how to order online yet and I know they’d definitely want me to […]
Five favorites to help distract me from the great baby watch of 2017 … Years ago, had you asked me if maternity unders were a worthwhile purchase, I would have said, “NO WAY!”, but now, I’m wiser. And these maternity low rise bikinis from Cotton Whispers are everything. I read lots of reviews and for the […]
This might not be the most entertaining post, but hopefully it’s informative for you pregnant gals who are curious about my supplement line up. I will confess that I really stink at taking vitamins regularly. To help with that, I keep them all on the kitchen counter so they’re in view at all times. This […]
