Well hey there! It feels like I’ve been gone a hundred years! We got back yesterday from our vacation and spent the afternoon trying to get life back in order. You know how it is…even though you left the house clean, the second you unpack the car, your house is a disaster again with all […]
Can you believe it’s almost AUGUST? You guys, that can’t be true, right?!?! Where does the time go? Speaking of time flying, my 10 mile race is in less than ONE month. And with a vacation coming up (!!!), I know I have to be very intentional about what my training will look like for […]
Today, I’m so very excited to share our FAMILY PICTURES!! Listen. The “family picture” we have on our mantle is about 3 years old. It’s not that we haven’t had pictures taken since then. We have! We had family maternity pics when I was pregnant with Mav, and newborn pics, and fall pictures. But somehow, […]
In true average mom fashion, I wrote this when Maverick turned 12 months, but didn’t take the picture til last week. So….one day before my little man turns 13 months, I’ll give you his ONE YEAR update 🙂 (And thanks for not judging my tardiness too much!) My tiny baby is no longer at tiny baby. […]
If you follow me on Instagram (@thisaveragemom), then you’ve seen some of the pictures I’m sharing today already…sorry!! We had a great 4th yesterday. We didn’t do much of anything, actually. We were able to play with the kids all morning, which was really nice considering we don’t get many Wednesdays at home! We ended […]

This Father’s Day was one for the books. And not in a good way. We will hopefully be doing a re-do this weekend. We started off the day in chaos mode, trying to get to church early for Maverick’s dedication. After Mav’s dedication, we headed back to the house. We had a full house since […]
Dear Maverick, Today, you are one. How can that be? I’m pretty sure it was only a few months ago that I was finally sitting down on the couch after getting your sister in bed when I said to your dad: “Uhhh? B? I think my water just broke….” And now suddenly I’m the proud […]
Well, last week my mom called and asked if I wanted her to fly me up to Michigan to run the Crim. The Crim is a 10 mile race in Flint. They have other events too– the last time I ran an event at the Crim it was the 8K and I was newly pregnant […]
This morning I got to go to Harlyn’s preschool’s Mother’s Day Tea. It was such a sweet event! Harlyn’s teachers put so much love and thought into this. When we arrived, there were gifts for us at the table (a All About My Mom fill in the blank sheet—hilarious!, a picture of each kid in […]
