I’ve been wanting to make a zipper-front shirt or dress since I saw Merrick’s lemon dress from last summer. I loved the zipper detail and that it was nursing friendly. I have also been loving all of the loose fitting peplums lately and really wanted to make one. I debated between the Lou Box Top and the … [Read more…]
Ring slings are really popular because they are comfortable and so easy to use. I have already used mine to go grocery shopping, go for walks, tour the city, and go out to lunch. I basically use it when I would rather just carry Braden or when I don’t really feel like maneuvering my stroller. I … [Read more…]
I don’t have a question for this week because it’s already late on Tuesday and I’m no quitter. I’m currently feeding a hungry baby and I’ve been sick since Sunday with a horrible cold – That should NOT be aloud when you have an almost two month old. But since there’s not much I can … [Read more…]
What place are you most grateful for? I am most grateful for home – where ever that is at the moment. I’ve moved quite a few times, so I’m not really fond of the question “Where are you from?”, but I do like the places I’ve lived and the people I’ve been able to meet … [Read more…]
Saturday, November 26 – It’s a no go. The Saturday after Thanksgiving, I started having contractions. Since Dallas’s whole family was at his grandparents house (where we live), they were all super excited that I would have the baby while they were all there. We went to Labor & Deliver (L&D) Saturday morning with contractions … [Read more…]

What small thing that happened to day are you grateful for? I’m grateful for every time Dallas hugged me today. Wednesday is my due date and I had a doctor appointment today, so it was a little rough to hear that I was basically at the same dilation as last week. I am so behind … [Read more…]
What sights are you grateful for today? Today I’m grateful for the mountains and the sky. That would sound pretty corny if I were to say it out loud…Really though. Every direction that I look, in the neighborhood that we’re living in right now, is AMAZING. I’ve posted pictures of what it looks like from … [Read more…]
Dallas’s amazing photographer mom took these photos when I was around 33 weeks, and I love them! She has been doing photography for basically her whole life, so if you need a photographer — she is the best! When I was deciding what type of outfit to wear for our photos, I knew I wanted … [Read more…]
What about your body are you grateful for? Today, I am grateful to have a healthy body. I feel very lucky to not have any diseases or impairments that would make living life a little bit more challenging. I have complete empathy for those that do, and I realize that I am very blessed to … [Read more…]
