finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
Today’s post is sponsored by Pixsee. We’re thrilled to review this smart baby monitor! I’ve been keeping a very fabulous secret over the last few months … my sister is expecting! I’m going to be an auntie again!!! Suffice to say, I’m thrilled. The kids are thrilled. My whole extended family is thrilled. This little […]
I’ve had a little pet project brewing – it’s called The Name Doula. Over on Instagram I’m cataloging all the names I love and helping parents find their perfect name too! Pop over and follow along and if you need name guidance you can submit a name consultation request! Curious how The Name Doula came […]
Where has the year gone, sweet boy? We cannot believe you are one! To think, that just a year ago we were snuggling up for the first time. I completed your birth video just in time for us all to reminisce. It brought tears to our eyes and so many smiles. What a perfect day […]
Whoa! Like, where have I been?!? Well, we finished packing (it was comical), the kids and I moved in my sister (so grateful!), we bought a house in Texas (before we ever saw it in person), Dominic went to set things up (we miss him!), and in just a few weeks we’re road trippin’ south […]
Mother’s Day is right around the corner and I’ve been brainstorming the perfect gift for my mom … and me :) Are you on the lookout too? Below you’ll find a fun assortment of treasures that most every gal in your life will love. So, whether it be Mother’s Day, a spring birthday, or just […]
Well, we have made it halfway through the 4th trimester! It has been WILD to say the least. In the midst of birth recovery we sold our house and are now heavy into packing and prepping for an out of state move. Charlie is a dream baby. He just goes with the flow and loves […]
It’s probably not the greatest mom move to say that Charlie’s birth was my favorite, but I’m going to anyway. Not my favorite kid (they’re all my favorite!), but my favorite birthing experience, I think. I claim this partly because he is my last. Because I want to go out on this whole pregnancy and […]
With previous pregnancies I have chronicled A LOT here on the blog. And this time, well, I haven’t. As in, this is the first official week survey update. More for me than you. So just bare with me :) Truly, I was so sick early on. Then I started to feel better and hit the […]
Today’s post is in partnership with PinkBlush. It’s no secret that I jump into maternity clothes as soon as I can. I’m all about pregnancy comfort and seeing that this is baby bump #5 I have definite favorites in my pregnancy box that I’m always eager to get back to. Then again, with each baby […]
I had my first midwife appointment today! It seems surreal that I’m back in the prenatal care routine. Then again, this has kind of been my loop for the last decade. I have a solid month left in my first trimester … and maybe a few residual weeks of not feeling well. Pretty much, I’m […]
I’ve been feeling crummy for a solid month now but that doesn’t negate how so very excited we are to be welcoming a new baby!!! I’m due in February of 2021 which will give Eli and this baby the exact age gap that Max and Reid have. All the kids are heavily pulling for a […]
