finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
This post is sponsored by Happy Family Brands but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. Even after four kids, I still find myself asking questions. All. The. Time. Questions about their milestones, questions about discipline, questions about food options, questions about breastfeeding, questions about my postpartum experience, questions about learning activities, questions […]
Hey mamas! Now that your kids are back in school, it’s time for you to explore some new things too, right? I’m working through two different e-courses (gotta show my kids that learning never ends!) and am so very excited to share more about and recommend one of them today — Vaccines Demystified. Honestly, I’ve been […]
Jem and I went on a girl date with some friends to paint pottery the other week and on our way back to the car she insisted that we take a few photos of each other because “we don’t have boys to wrestle”. She was SO right. Going out with just an almost eight year old is […]
Apparently I’m on a laundry kick, because I’m back with more laundry talk! Over the long weekend I decided it was time to give the walls of my laundry room some love. And so, I typed up this “very me” piece of artwork. It says, “Sort today, wash tomorrow, fold maybe, iron never”. Which is all […]
This style file PSA isn’t just for mamas who work out. It’s for mamas who work … and we all do! Laundry. Dishes. 100 diapers a day. Bath time with slippery kids. You name it, we’re burning calories! And, if you’re anything like me, you like to do that comfortably :) I’ve been a Fabletics fan for years. […]

Doing — An Instagram sale. Prep for my sister’s bridal shower – eek! Wallpapering. Summer is always full of such random projects! Watching — I can’t even remember the last time I watched a TV show. The summer line up isn’t my jam. I did watch The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society on Netflix though … […]
Would you look at that ^^^ everyone looking the same direction! I think it’s our first family photo like that since adding Eli … only took 10 1/2 months! Just ignore Reid’s fierce + mean mug. He was beyond annoyed that I took his thumb out of his mouth and asked him to smile. Gosh […]
As much as I love sharing about pregnancy and birth, I think I most love finding camaraderie in the postpartum phase of motherhood. Pregnancy is a little less than a year, birth, in the best circumstances, is less than a day, but postpartum? It lasts forever! Once you have a baby, you’re always postpartum! During […]
I have very much scaled back my online browsing lately, and thus, online shopping. It’s better for the budget, as I’m sure you know. But, not much can keep me away from Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale! It’s just too good. And I love that it times with back to school because Lord knows that with all […]
I’ve been experimenting with smoothies quite a bit lately. They make for a perfect, easy lunch alongside cheese and crackers … because you all know this mama ain’t starting up the oven for dino nuggets in the heat of the day! Some of my smoothies have been BIG wins and others, well, let’s just say that the […]
