Happy Third Birthday, Harper Reese!
Harper Reese, You’re THREE today! How in the world did you grow up so fast? I am so proud of the little girl you’ve become. Every day, I’m in awe of how smart and funny you are. Your little mind is so amazing--- you constantly surprise us with your silly expressions, your ability to tell stories and your beautiful heart. This year, you became a ...
Lately…
I hope you had a great week! Here's a wrap up of mine: O N E Pregnancy changes your body, face and hair. If you're me, it also changes your lashes. Something odd happens when I'm pregnant. I stop growing hair on my legs (literally only have to shave once a month, if that) and I start losing my eye lashes. They just get shorter and fall out more. ...

What’s in My Diaper Bag?
Since having Lincoln, I thought it would be fun to do an updated "what's in my diaper bag" post. I used to bring every.single.thing with me when Harper was a baby and we ended up with a very heavy bag with a lot of stuff we never used. This time around, I know better and I keep it as simple as possible. My motto is to pack light and keep an ...
Lately…
What a week it was! Last week daycare was closed for spring break so my in-laws stayed with Harper and Lincoln all week which we were very thankful for. Next year, we need to plan a vacation for all of us so we can just take that time off of work since the kids are off anyway. I took last Friday off to spend with the kids and that's the morning ...
Our Weekend…
Lincoln will be FIVE months old soon and I'm hoping that milestone will officially signify the end of the four month sleep regression. He was doing so well, sleeping one 7-8 hour stretch and then another several hours and now there are some nights he's waking 2-4 times. Thank God I can nurse this time around because usually a little "snack" will ...
Target’s Pillowfort Collection: Adorable, Whimsical Decor for Kids!
I was so excited when I saw previews of Target's Pillowfort collection a few weeks ago. The line features cute, fun, colorful and whimsical furniture, bedding, decor and accessories for kids rooms and playrooms. I already placed an order online since my store didn't have much of the collection. Major thanks to Target for finding yet another way to ...
Our Weekend…
Oh hey! It's 9 p.m. as I write this and both kids are (finally) asleep. Harper doesn't do naps on weekends often anymore and then she passes out on the living room floor before bedtime and wakes up and hour or so later in a mood that any parent of a nearly "threenager" can probably imagine. Harper and I spent some mommy/daughter time together on ...
