We are seriously so thrilled to have another little one on the way. It’s been so hard keeping the secret this time around because it has quite simply knocked me on my feet. I’m sharing few more fun variations of our announcement photos here because there were a few really good ones! We knew we wanted to do something simple for the announcement (because there really are no new ideas under the sun) but wanted to put our own new unique twist on it. When we came up with the “trilogy” idea for our custom t-shirts it was the obvious winner. Well, I’ve gotten LOTS of DMs and questions about some of the details of the pregnancy so I’m sharing the answers here. I will share my favorite first trimester items this weekend since I only have a couple more days left until I’m sailing into the second trimester.

3 Tips for throwing a Kids’ Holiday Party on a Budget

Leave a comment

It’s been over a month now since Valentine’s Day actually happened so I figured it was as good a time as any to get a post up about how I did this budget-friendly party. The story goes, my husband goes out of town on a work trip, so I decide to have some of my favorites mamas over with their babes to exchange valentines, and then I black out and throw a full-blown party. Luckily, this is not the first time that this has happened. Why is that lucky? Well, you see since it’s happened before I know all the tricks to pulling this off in a budget-friendly way, you know the kind that won’t make my husband call me from his work cruise (it’s a thing) to ask if I’ve lost my mind. I’ll give you two words as a hint before I get into the nitty-gritty, Dollar Tree.

Hello 2018!

Leave a comment

I’m not afraid to admit that I have never been one to stick with my New Year’s resolutions. I mean, who really does? If you do then maybe you can teach me your secret? Until I find someone to coach me on resolution keeping I decided to jump on the “word of the year” bandwagon. This was something I could get on board with, picking one word as the theme of the year and focusing on this word in your choices and actions. I really wanted to do this, but for some reason, nothing was coming to mind. So I decided to skip it until I was praying and rocking Sully before bed and God spoke it to me as plain as day. Call me crazy, but I know without a doubt that this was a God-given thing. It was like all at once I heard the word and all of the ways in which it was going to weave through my life this upcoming year. Big stuff. I can’t wait to share it with you guys.

How I’m Staying Sane this Holiday Season

Leave a comment

I think every mom can agree that we wish we had a second set of eyes. I could rattle off a list of about a hundred reasons why they would come in handy. I am even more aware of this need during the holidays though. Find a mom during the holidays and I can almost guarantee that she is multitasking about 5 things at any given moment. Things get CRAZY. Out of town guests, cooking elaborate meals, organizing holiday cheer, shopping for gifts, decorating to the nines, and all of that on top of the normal never-ending to-do list. I’m tired just thinking about it. That’s where my secret weapon comes in, my extra set of eyes if you will. I’ve partnered with Logitech to tell you all about how I’m using their new Circle 2 camera to stay sane during the holidays, and it’s really good.

#MomsDoPalms

Leave a comment

Yup, a bunch of Moms did Palms really good, Palm Springs that is. We had SO MUCH FREAKING FUN. With the exception of one of my IRL besties, Ashley, I had not met any of these ladies. 9 women, who are basically strangers, in a house would typically be a recipe for disaster. Like, they film reality TV about stuff like this because it’s usually pretty juicy. However, we knew we liked each other from connecting on Instagram over the course of about a year and the results were magical. It was SO fun, we laughed and ate, and laughed so more. We were hosted by The Weekend House and it could not have been any more perfect. Since I don’t want to bore you all with every tiny detail, I will just share all of the fun photos.
