We are now a few weeks into this deployment and I am surprisingly surviving. Even when my husband first mentioned joining the military, all I imagined was raising babies alone. That sounded awful. Welp - here I am! Raising those babies alone, and guess what... IT'S NOT AWFUL! I am actually enjoying the extra [...]
I often refer back to the heartbeat of what started this blog... It was my first day as a supporter of my (now) husband's career in the military. From boot camp survival guides (as a girlfriend), to long distance relationships as a fiance... to care packages and homecoming signs as a wife, and what to [...]
If you're like us - the number of how many flights your baby has been on and how many months old they are - are the same number. We've actually enjoyed flying across the country (to and from Florida to Texas, and Georgia, and Colorado, and California) with our little man, and you can too. [...]
This post is in collaboration with JORD Watches My first real mother's day is coming up... It won't be the first celebrated - my dogs (AKA my husband) have gotten me cards for years and last year I was pregnant... but this is my first real mother's day of having my heart live outside of my body.

I wish I could say, "I'm never too proud of myself." But you guys, I am not the one to learn "how to be humble" from. One of the things I am most proud of was managing a couple weeks solo with a newborn under a month old. Ya girl was all by her [...]
Post in collaboration with The Mint Julep Boutique. "If you breastfeed, the weight just sheds off." Raise your hand if you heard this myth. Here I am, seven months later, and still a chubby-cheeked, chunky vegan. If the weight came off for you with no diet change or exercise, WOW. You are so blessed, but [...]
Hey y'all! I finally got around to showing more of Anakin's Star Wars nursery here in Florida. He's growing like a weed so everything in the room changes monthly, but here are some photos from the early newborn days and what it looks like now seven months later! Some of my favorite details are the [...]
If you've wandered to this blog post, it is most likely because you or someone you love is expecting... CONGRATULATIONS! Pregnancy is an exciting time to prepare for a new family member, and if you're like me, you searched high and low to make things perfect. As much as I love sharing products, it is [...]
When I was a child, I would dream about my life now. I prayed so hard to God, to the moon, and my dead grandpa for love and to become a mom. I wanted a baby Simba or a Barbie in my arms at all times. I wanted to comb it's hair, [...]
I've partnered with Pink Blush to bring you guys my super simple lazy day outfits for the winter time here in Florida. Today was one of those days where I just needed a mental break from e-mails, cleaning the house, and wrapping up the holiday chaos. All I wanted was to drink my coffee while [...]
