It’s been a LONG time since I wrote about the kids on here, but today, I wanted to do a Sibling Snapshot post…because my babies are growing up so fast it hurts. But also, watching them grow is amazing. First of all, these two are sooooo siblings. They love hard and fight harder. I kid […]

It’s Halloween, and then 3 seconds later, it’s January. Anyway…this year for Halloween we had a beautiful mermaid […]
Before I became a mom, there were several things I said I’d never do as a mother. Five years into motherhood and I can tell you: I was a better mom before I had kids. 😉 Do you remember all those times you we’re out and about, childless and naive? When you’d see parents doing […]
Life changes are never easy for anyone…but kids especially can have a hard time adjusting to new situations. While I’m certainly no expert, I do feel like we’ve had a pretty big few months of changes around here, and we’ve learned a lot along the way. We still have so much we can improve on […]
In this house, we’re strict about bedtime…and we won’t apologize for it. We’ve actually been this way since our first child was born. When Harlyn was a baby, we’d sometimes have to say no to things because the fun we’d have in the moment would be NOTHING compared to the agony we’d be in having […]
