Burlap and Lace Baptism Celebration

August 31, 2016August 30, 20162 Comments

I love love love the combination of burlap and lace! I've been waiting forever to get to use this theme in a party and little A's baptism celebration was the perfect excuse. I found a seller who I bartered with on eBay for the beautiful table runners (definitely saving these beauties and adding to my … Continue reading Burlap and Lace Baptism Celebration

Connecting with a Pre-Teen Girl

August 31, 2016August 31, 2016Leave a comment

I know I am not the first and definitely won't be the last parent to have trouble connecting with a pre-teen daughter. A little girl who I used to have such a GREAT relationship with slowly morphing into an awkward stranger before my very eyes. I know I must have done the same at her age but … Continue reading Connecting with a Pre-Teen Girl

One of those Mornings…

August 23, 20166 Comments

So after a long night with a congested, fussy baby who wanted to nurse what seemed like every 5 minutes, I then wake up to a toddler who did not want to get out of bed, didn't want to wear "that" shirt and wanted to bring every toy she owned to her Mima's house this … Continue reading One of those Mornings…

With the oldest being 11 and only living in our house part-time there were some obvious concerns with putting chores in place.

Breast is Best, Right?

August 2, 2016Leave a comment

Breastfeeding.... Such a loaded topic for some. The guilt, the stress, and it's not always an easy task. I am forever jealous of those who it comes easily for because with both kids, it was a huge undertaking.  With little Sierra, four short years ago, I was unable to get her to latch. After many … Continue reading Breast is Best, Right?
