This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Walmart Baby Savings Days. The opinions and text are all mine. One thing I’ve learned with having a second child is that no two kids are the same. I know you mamas of two or more can attest to this! It’s easy to expect...
Newton Baby provided this product in exchange for an honest review. Good morning, friends! Today I wanted to share an essential part of our everyday. I’m talking about something that helps me rest easier, makes our nights smoother, lets me wake up bright-eyed and improves how we feel each day. I’m talking about… a crib...
We had already been talking about the idea of moving when I found out I was pregnant with Collins. It was a far off idea and at the time, but time flies and as we welcomed baby #2 into our lives in December, our little 2 bedroom house was still our home. I knew I...
In today’s post I’m sharing tips on how I increased my breast milk supply in 24-48 hours. Let me start by saying it’s been a long time since I was a breastfeeding mom. Whew! With a six year age gap between my two girls, it’s easy to forget what the newborn day-to-day entails and, in...
Since I’m feeling all the effects of the third trimester, I suppose it’s time to post our baby name announcement. A few weeks back, I shared a little preview of baby #2’s name when I posted a picture of a monogram necklace Hunter gave me with an E and a C. I had so many fun...
I have been a bit absent lately and if you’ve been missing me, I promise I have good reason. The past few weeks have been a bit out of the ordinary and I’ve been doing my best to adjust to all the changes. I shared some pretty exciting news on Instagram yesterday and in case...
I’m sure you’ve all seen at least one of the “What I Do” memes floating around, from journalists to gamers, lawyers to Nicolas Cage and even stay-at-home moms. I haven’t come across one for career moms, so I decided to make my own. To all of the woman trying to balance work, mommy hood, being a...
There has been so much going on lately, that I’ve fallen asleep on the couch, laptop open on more than one night this week. It’s been a whirlwind, but in a good way. It’s real life, to be honest. First, let me tell you about my pride and joy. Miss Emery Lynn has given us...
After a less than stellar home-cooked meal by yours truly Tuesday night (sorry, babe!), we decided to go out for a nice family dinner last night. While we were out and about, hustling and bustling along, we took Emery to see Santa. We weren’t sure what she would think about her first encounter with the...
Living The Pioneer Woman-esque life in the country has its perks. One major plus: pretty pastoral views from dawn til dusk of rolling green hills, tree tops, winding roads, brilliant sunshine and open fields of grass and cotton. I drive past this particular patch of Southern snow every day, but today the early morning sun...
I recently read this article over on coolmomtech that names babies as the next great American consumer. I believe it. Who knew I would ever spend so much time browsing any Etsy page, baby boutique or store aisle that remotely appeared to have baby clothes, toys or accessories? Not me. But I have. And I’ve found...
How is it possible that six entire months have already flown by since March 31st? Emery is already at the half year mark and I still sometimes have to remind myself that Hunter and I have a baby! She is such a cool. laid-back girl and has fit right into our lives like a perfect...
My, how time flies! We’re celebrating the three month milestone of our sweet girl’s life and finding it hard to believe she’s been with us this long. It seems like just yesterday Hunter and I were breaking the big news to our families.
I can’t believe another month with Emery has flown by so fast. Where did the last four weeks go? Today she got her two month shots and tomorrow I’m back to work. Next thing you know, I’ll be sending her off to college. So much has happened this month and I’m constantly amazed at how...
I’ve finally FINALLY finished Emery’s sweet little space. It took months of contemplating colors, cribs and furniture selections before I eventually put it all together for the princess. It was mostly complete by the time we packed our bags for the hospital, but a few details and waiting for the chair to arrive meant it...
