Dear Husband, First, let me start off by saying how amazing you are. No, I’m not just trying to butter you up because I’m abandoning you with the kids for a few days, I really mean it, you’re awesome. So awesome that I thought I should warn you about a few things before I go….
Shoutout to everyone on my Facebook page who gave feedback saying they prefer to scroll through a series of images instead of click through a slideshow. Scrolling it is! Though I couldn’t resist myself, I put a mini slideshow in my sidebar because I couldn’t choose just one of these to feature over there. If…
At first glance, his eyes drew me in, and to this day, that’s still one of my favorite features about my husband. Now, those same round bright eyes belong to my children, and I can’t choose a favorite pair. His eyes had me at hello, but his dedication, loyalty, and rock-hard abs made me say…
This weekend I was up in a manic state after having a huge light bulb go off in my head. Or as my girl Oprah would say, my “AH HA moment”.Lately I’ve been so bogged down with all the transitions I dealt with at the middle to end of last year—Having a baby, maternity leave,…
Life is awesome! I guess it’s just one of those weeks. I’m feeling good, feeling great. Just enjoying some of the simple pleasures. 1. My kids: Ok this may seem like a giant “DUH” but for a little while there I felt like I was strapped into a sinking ship that was going down. We’re…
As you may remember my daughter had a very specific request for a Halloween costume this year. She wanted to be a “girl lion” the kind “without a mane.” But when hunting for her costume, she didn’t want one that appeared as though it was eating her head, or one that was more tutu-frill-frill than…
When I was in middle school I remember seeing posted signs around the halls for a civic oration competition. I had an interest in public speaking, and a will to participate in almost every activity advertized around school, so I signed up. We were given a set of rules, and a topic to write a…
*I wrote this post in partnership with HP! I have a couple different obsessions going on in my life right now. One of which is backing up my photos five different ways (no lie), and the other is strategizing how I’m going to decorate my new house. Aka studying Pinterest. The builders finally broke ground on…
Hi! I’m a Mormon. Did you know that? If not, well, now you do! A friend of mine recently posted a response to the BuzzFeed post-gone-viral, 25 Things Mormon Girls Love, titled 25 things *this* Mormon girl loves. I loved it so much I thought I’d so the same. If you’re LDS, or have lived…
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Comfort and Harmony. All opinions are 100% mine. I have a secret when it comes to trying to balance this mom of two thing, and it’s having my hands free. I wear my little guy in a wrap (I love mine by Sugar Sweet…
A typical day in my life right now is drastically different than it was a couple of months ago, and different than it will be a month from now. See, I’m on maternity leave. So a typical day right now usually means I’m surrounded by my awesome kids all day. I’m waking up when my…
I’m not a style blogger by any means, but I am a practical woman who happens to have just had a baby five weeks ago. I’m dying to get back into my pre-baby clothes, if for no other reason than I don’t want to have to buy new sizes in everything. A little over a…
