finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
Oh yes, it’s true – in honor of Father’s Day this month That Dad Dominic is making an appearance on the blog today! When Dom and I got married way back when (we’re just 14 months away from TEN YEARS!) I imagined that he would be a wonderful father, but now, seeing him in action, […]
This post was sponsored by CYBEX as part of an Ambassador Program for Influence Central. I received the CYBEX Agis Travel System to facilitate my review. I don’t love summer. Actually, it may be my least favorite season. I know, I know, scoff at me now. But, heat just isn’t my friend. Neither are bugs. Or sunburns. […]
Today I committed a cardinal sin when it comes to potty training — I left home without my “Potty Training On the Go” Kit! Go ahead, cue all the mom brain jokes, I’ve already been officially diagnosed as “super forgetful” by Jemma :) I honestly have yet to do this in all my years of potty training, […]
Well, we’re maybe building a house. I say maybe because we haven’t bought property yet (we have a piece in mind that we love though) and we’re still nailing down a design. Oh, and the budget, because apparently it’s a good idea to be smart about finances when it comes to building. All that to say, we’re […]
This post was sponsored by a2 Milk® as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.

I clicked on my about page up above the other day and was alarmed to see that according to it I was still a mom of 2! Totally not true – Reid is here and has been for almost 5 months! Time for some updating! So, I gave it a little makeover! Now the about page shares […]
“This post was sponsored by CYBEX as part of an Ambassador Program for Influence Central. I received the CYBEX Agis Travel System to facilitate my review.” I’ll never ever ever claim to be an expert, but, being a mom of 3, I’ve tried out my fair share of baby products. I guess you could say […]
Dominic always requests something lemon flavored for his birthday dessert. All year long I force chocolate down his throat when it comes to desserts, so, being the awesome wife I am, I whip up some lemon deliciousness on his one special day! Then, back to chocolate :) I’ve had this recipe for lemon meringue sitting […]
I truly envy the mamas who have figured out how to nurse with their regular bras. By the title of this post, you’ve probably guessed that I am not that girl. These here nursing tatas need mega support during their lactating days. For real. End of story, no negotiating allowed. Because of my fluctuation between […]
Since Reid was born, Jem has become the “little mama” in our family. This girl is practically on the brink of earning her own Mother’s Day; she is seriously that awesome. She has grown up so much since last year. I can hardly believe how smart and truly wise she is! What is your mom’s […]
You guys, I’m on a roll with my writing these days, not so much with my running. But, let’s ignore that fact and focus on these Nike FlyKnits? Darling, right? And I can vouch for their comfort. The best ever! I’m on a total closet declutter — shop that jazz here and if you mention that […]
