If I could go back…
Sometimes, I think of those days leading up to the birth of Sullivan. And again, the birth of Arlo. Two of the most defining moments in my life. Aside from the day I married my husband, these are the moments that have made me. Me. I was terrified. Both times, really, though more so with [...]
Faster than a speeding toddler.
If you’re wondering what happens when you leave a toddler alone for 32 seconds while you change the littlest? I have your answer. Oh, no big deal, you say? Just a drawing on the magnadoodle? You have underestimated the speed of a toddler. That’s black crayon, you see there. What you aren’t seeing is the [...]
A few of my favorite things…
I’d love to do a little “Sponsor Spotlight” for y’all today. These lovely sponsors were handpicked by me. They are all companies I love and support. I only use advertisers who I, personally, would or have purchased from, and they are all run by wonderful people. Rumparooz, how I love thee. I have proclaimed our [...]
Power to the Boobs
Disclaimer: If you just Googled “Boobs” in hope to catch a glipse…you’re out of luck. Seriously, I knew that breastfeeding changed your boobs because duh, they are now producing milk. But I’ve always heard, “It’s not breastfeeding that makes your boobs different looking…it’s pregnancy.” Well, all I have to say is, “Liar, liar, pants on [...]
Some day….but for now.
Some day, he’ll rather be with his friends than with his parents. He will go on first dates, get a first kiss, have sweaty palms before Prom. He will take the Driver’s Test, get that permit, and feel the joy of a first drive. He’ll make our hearts stop as he heads out for his [...]
Adventures in Co-Sleeping.
Sully slept in bed with me until he was six-months-old. I fought it and fought it, but I got sick of rocking him every night for hours on end, so I gave up the battle and brought him to bed. We tried sleep training around four months, kind of failed, and did it again at [...]
Really? REALLY?! Don’t make my mama bear come out to bite.
Sully is becoming increasingly talkative. And the coolest part? I actually understand him! He says things like, “Hi mom-mom!” and “Wow…cooool!” and “Bay-bay’s baba?” (baby’s bottle) oh and “Gah goooo” (thank you..that one is a little bit difficult to understand, but you get the point). And when he sees a green car? He says, “ga-reeeen [...]
Langston’s Western Wear, Lane Cowboy Boots a Review-CLOSED
***WINNER IS JOLIE NEWMAN**** Y’all have heard me lament recently about how being a mama sometimes makes me feel like I’ve completely lost my sense of fashion. Away go the stilettoes in the name of “practicality,” and I’m left with boring flats, jeans (or let’s be real, yoga pants), t-shirts, and clothes that prior to [...]
Surviving Two under Two.
I’ll be honest with you…there have been some days since we’ve expanded our family where I’ve wanted to crawl into bed, lock the door, and plug my ears up to keep from hearing someone crying/yelling at me/ruining furniture/etc. Whenever a friend tells me that I seem to “have it all together,” I laugh. Obviously, my [...]

"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. This is the story of us as we flounder through raising our wild, little boys, moving a million times, and buying and renovating our 1968 Ranch home."
