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…
What a year it has been. This sweet girl of mine has taught me so much about being a mama and I believe with all of my heart that as a mother you have to do whatever is best for your child, following their lead because every child is different. I talked about it all…
We arrived at the hospital at 6:30am for our 8:30 C-Section. We got all checked in and in our room to get “dressed” in, and about 6:50 the nurse came in and said there was an emergency c-section and that they had to bump me to 10:30am. Bummed we had to wait 2 more hours…
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…
On Saturday A turns one. ONE. It’s so hard to believe that it’s already been a year, but at the same time…it’s hard to believe it’s only been a year. The year has flown by and it’s been a truly amazing year. To celebrate A I’m going to be sharing our maternity photos today, her…

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….
I knew the holidays would become much more exciting now that we have A. Sure, last Thanksgiving we had her but she was a week old, and Christmas … well she was a month and a week…soooooo, although they were special and fun – we knew this year would be the start of exciting, holidays….
I’m sitting here reflecting on the week, and counting all of the blessings I encountered. Things have been tough for us with searching for a home for eighteen months, Ryan becoming burnt out at his current place of work and me wishing for nothing than him finding something he would enjoy. Anything. All last week…
Tomorrow my new shop opens. The shop I have been reluctant to open for years with the subtle fear my artwork won’t be enough, but earlier this year I had an idea and I decided that it felt right. Everything fell together gently just like it tends to do when something is meant to happen…
