Before kids, I was an avid reader. I've always loved to read. But since having kids it has just been SO hard to find the time to read for fun or for myself....know what I mean? I've recently been convicted to spend more time reading my Bible and focusing on my relationship with God. And last week on my Instagram story I shared some devotions and ... Read More
Three is the Magic Number
Three really is the magic number. I absolutely adore having three kids. Yes, it’s crazy and hectic and busy….but it’s pretty awesome. I wish I could go back in time and tell my mom-of-two-and-pregnant self that everything was going to be just fine. Way better than fine actually. Everything was going to be amazing. I’ve teamed up with Ergobaby for ... Read More
Monday Randomness
Patting myself on the back for blogging on a Monday morning! I thought I would have so much more time to myself with Hudson in kindergarten and Sadie in preschool three mornings a week. But nope! It's even busier than before. How is that possible? And yes, we are only on day 2 of preschool, so maybe I'll feel better in a week or so. I just can't ... Read More

To My Little Boy, Before You Start Kindergarten
My sweet boy, I blinked and here we are. You are off to kindergarten next week. And I cannot believe it. It seems like yesterday I was rocking you to sleep and rubbing my cheek agains your fuzzy head. Kissing your chubby feet and tickling your belly. Listening to your amazing laugh and marveling at those tiny fingers wrapped around one of mine. ... Read More
New Back to School Favorites
Back to school! Back to school! It's all we've been talking about at our house lately. How many more days? What's my teacher's name? Is she nice? What games will we play? Will the bus ride be bumpy? Will I learn to read super fast?....all of these questions have come out of this guy's mouth this past month. He's so dang excited. And so am I. But ... Read More
Lunch Ideas for Picky Eaters
We are full on in back-to-school prep mode over here. I’m still in disbelief that I have a child old enough to be going to school full time. Where did my baby go? Since I’m a first time kindergarten mom, I’ve done my fair share of worrying. I worry about Hudson being away from me all day. I worry about him making new friends, being kind to ... Read More
Car Essentials for Traveling with Kids
I like to think I’ve smartened up a bit now that I’m a mom of three for 16 months….but I’m sure that’s not true. I feel like the more kids I have the more forgetful I get. Anyone else? One thing I’ve learned from carting three kids around all day every day is that there is no such thing as being over prepared when it comes to stepping foot out of ... Read More
Easy Like Summer Mornings
This post is sponsored by Dannon® Oikos® Traditional Greek Yogurt but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. Easy like Sunday morning....said no mom ever. Mornings with three kids can be challenging...especially when they all wake up at the same time and demand something from me all at once. With our summer schedules being all over ... Read More
Making Summer Memories Last
I remember in May worrying that I wouldn’t be able to fill the days this summer. Having three kids five and under at home with me all day, every day was daunting. But much to my surprise and delight, we have had the BEST summer together. It’s true when they say the days are long but the years are short. The days this summer have felt long on ... Read More
