I’ll warn everyone now that this post is photo heavy, we had just so much fun with Halloween this year I want to make sure I get it all documented. After heading to the pumpkin patch a couple of weeks ago, we had our pumpkin carving experience for the first year in our new house. This…
On November 16 we celebrated A’s FIRST birthday. That morning I spent the morning prepping all of the food. The Smash Cake, the cupcakes, the snacks, the nests, and decorating. Ryan made whipped cream For snacks we had all of A’s favorites – grapes, goldfish, animal crackers, multigrain crackers, carrots, peppers – and then we…
There I stood in the kitchen with A in my left arm telling Ryan the defeat I felt from the day. The kind of defeating day where you are served up all kinds of things that didn’t go your way like how the maintenance guy showed up 2 hours before he was supposed to. And…
To My Sweet Girl On Your Birthday, I don’t know how many times I’ve said it already but I don’t think there will be too many times to say it. You sweet girl, are more than I ever imagined, and the years of praying for you was worth it, so incredibly worth it. God truly…

I sat in the cardiology office waiting for the doctor – knowing we would be discussing the labor and delivery process that would be best for me. Dr. F walked into the room, went over the scans I had done the day before then he said “have you thought about your delivery?” I responded with…
I know I said it already in this post, but this girl makes the holidays so much fun. Don’t get me wrong the past years of seeing the cute little trick-or-treaters coming to our door has always been fun…except for last year when I was far to pregnant to be getting up and down 50+…
Saturday evening we drove 45 minutes to an event called “Monster Dash” my mom was volunteering at. It was a 5k & 10k race with a tiny kiddo race at the very end. We were wrapped up in buying A shoes and ran too late for the little race but activities were going on still….
