finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Glaceau fruitwater®. Less than a month until my sweet boy’s first birthday. Sigh. In honor of the upcoming celebration I thought it would be fun to share a little vlog about the sparkling truth of his arrival. Wondering what a sparkling truth is? Well, […]
I’m trying to remember where I first heard that term “Velcro baby”. Immediately, I knew I’d use it forever. It perfectly describes Max. My very own Velcro baby. Ever since he was born, he’s been my Velcro baby. He’s the hook, I’m the loop. He went from being in me, to on me. His favorite […]

It’s been a lovely little break from blog land! I definitely need to do this more often. Unplugging is a great feeling, very peaceful and calm … even if I did stumble along the way and Instagram a few pics and catch up on Call the Midwife. During my week off I took the chance […]

This little man brings so much joy to my heart. He is a constant source of snuggles and smiles and the bond growing between he and Jemma is absolutely darling. They are the sweetest brother and sister pair I know! Ever since he was born, I’ve believed that Max is a very old soul. Sometimes […]
