I don’t think I ever really learned how to take time for myself. Growing up I was always involved in a ton of activities. Dance, soccer, cheer, yearbook, ASB. I loved doing them all, but they were scheduled activities. I don’t really remember ever doing much of anything when I had down time at home [...]

One of my favorite things about these past few months has been seeing LJ’s little personality come out. He’s very much entered the stage where he knows what he wants, what he wants to do, and what he wants things called. They are Crocs, not shoes, Mom. Excuse me, Sir LJ, I did not know [...]

Well that was unexpected…. 3 months. It’s been 3 months since I’ve sat down to write a post. It wasn’t a planned break. It just sorta, happened. I left for a week in Cabo with my family with no posts scheduled, no friends filling in, and frankly didn’t care. I was JUST starting to feel [...]

How many of you are as guilty as I am? We pin, and pin, and pin, with the greatest of intentions, yet never seem to get around to it. The amazing mantle display. The delicious looking recipe. The killer outfit that you totally have the stuff to recreate. For once, I decided to actually stop [...]

Far quicker than last time, I’m hitting the point of being totally in between. Old clothes are quickly becoming too small, while maternity stuff is still mostly too big. Every morning I play the “Fit, or no fit” game with my closet. If it’s not made of stretchy jersey, it basically doesn’t fit anymore. So [...]

Slowly but surely, I’m returning to the land of the living. Laundry that hasn’t been done since before we moved (shhh!) is finally being tackled. I’m getting dressed in more than just my pjs or sweats. And the child is finally getting potty trained….hooray!!! It may not be the most exciting life ever, but for [...]

I am truly honored to share these amazing women, bloggers, and shop owners with all of you today! I can’t express how grateful I am that my amazing sponsors have been nothing but loving and supportive as I’ve semi-fallen off the face of the blogging planet these last few weeks. Not only have they continued [...]

7:15 am: 1st alarm goes off. I roll over, hit snooze, and pray that the next 8 minutes feel like hours. 7:23 am : 2nd alarm goes off. Drag my zombie like body to the shower and attempt to get clean. Washing my hair makes me weak and winded. 7:50 am: Get out of the [...]

Ever since I got the first email, I’ve been somewhere between a state of shock and disbelief. Me, really? You want me? Are you sure you got the right girl? This weekend I’m speaking at Elevate Blog Conference. It’s the first conference that I’ll ever speak at. I’m excited, a little nervous, hoping I don’t [...]

Don’t get me wrong here, I’m beyond excited for our new little peanut to get here. The smushy little face, the new baby smell, tiny little clothes, and a whole room to redecorate. What I’m not excited about are those ugly little truths of pregnancy that I seemed to magically forget since LJ. It’s amazing [...]
