Boba Baby Carrier Review
We all know baby-wearing has some great benefits. When babies are tiny, baby wearing is about as close as you can get to simulating their time in the womb. Sully was one those those babies that wanted to be worn all the time. He felt safe, secure, and comfortable when I wore him around, and [...]
Sometimes, you need a reminder.
You know those days when your child does everything in his power to drive you up a freaking wall? And you’re all like, “OHEMGEE just stop it already?!” You go for a walk to get out of the house and he screams for an entire hour. And then, you come home and he sneaks into [...]
The bizarre-ness that is “nesting.”
I’m a pretty neat and clean person. With the exception of my high school years and freshman year of college (sorry, roomie! Anna, I know I was messy. Thanks for not killing me!), I’ve developed a wee bit of OCD when it comes to cleaning. I hate mess. I despise dirt and dust. I routinely [...]
I believe
..there is very little in life more miserable than a summer cold or sinus infection that will. not. go. away. …naptime can be Heaven on Earth. …in curls and little boys who love books. …Georgia is my own special hell right now, what with all the smoke from the wild fires and 110 degree heat [...]
Count down to D-Day.
Deliver day is drawing near. This Sunday marks 35/35 (35 weeks pregnant, 35 days to go). Which means, in two weeks, this little one is cooked and could come at any time. I’m constantly reminded by Braxton Hicks contractions, restless legs, and pregnancy insomnia. Last night, I overdid it a little, and a short round [...]

Baby Dos’ Nursery Tour
Since we’re renting, I can’t do all the fun things like painting murals. It makes me a little sad that we don’t have our “own” home right now because I would love to go color crazy and paint all over the place. Alas, such is the life of a military family, and since we’ll only [...]

Push Presents: Tacky or Totally Awesome?
When Sully was born, I was given a tasteful diamond cross from my husband. Okay, really, I received the necklace a couple weeks before but only because Taylor is horrible at keeping surprises. I refused to take it off for the first six months Taylor was deployed. Not just because he was gone, but because [...]
A memorable Father’s Day.
Last year, I celebrated Father’s Day with a short Skype date, a big glass of wine, and some tears. Taylor spent his first Father’s Day in Iraq. Despite being deployed almost the entire first year of Sully’s life, Taylor has continued to step up in every way, shape, and form to be an amazing daddy. [...]

"I'm a twenty-five-year old mama to two little boys and married to the love of my life. I have a serious Diet Coke addiction and a tendency to overshare.
