Last year as I started to come out of the baby fog and coma I had been in for six years, I set out some heart healthy goals for myself. I’m partnering with Henry Ford Health System for this post. Becoming a family of five in 2017 was mentally and physically exhausting for me…and I hadn’t really slept, ever, since becoming a mom in 2012. So I ... Read More

Mom Friends
Making friends once you are a mom is HARD. And while I feel terribly unqualified to talk about this, I think it’s important that we do. I’m not good at making friends. Yup. I said it! I’ve always been the type of person that just had a 2-3 close friends. I was always friendly to everyone, and knew a lot of people, but only had a handful of ... Read More
How We Structure Our Summer Days
Okay, let’s be honest. Who else simultaneously loves the idea of summer break (no lunches to pack, no more getting everyone up early and out the door, less routine) while also sort of dreading it? The thought of three months of coming up with ways to entertain my three kids at home is daunting to me. What will we do all day, EVERY DAY? It’s ... Read More
Mommy + Me Photo Session
For Mother's Day this year I treated myself to something special. A mommy + me photo session with my three little loves. It's so hard to get in the picture these days. But it's so important. I will cherish these photos of me and my babies forever. Thank you so much to Kellie from Hetler Photography for capturing my crazy crew! It was so hard to ... Read More

Target Lately
Oh Target. My favorite store. What would we do without it? Just for fun, I thought I'd share some of the things I've picked up at Target lately that we've been loving in our house! Bathroom basket. Oh man I love this one so much! It's designed to sit on the top of your toilet and holds two rolls of toilet paper. Instead of toilet paper I store ... Read More
A Mom as You Are
In honor of Mother’s Day, I’m teaming up with Allstate for this post. All opinions are my own. As mothers we are told that we have to get it all right, so our kids turn out right. We are made to believe that our children’s entire futures are riding on our ability to perfectly orchestrate their lives. And we’re told that the strength of their ... Read More
Easter 2019
He is Risen! Happy Easter! We had such an amazing Easter weekend as a family. Last Easter we struggled with the sudden loss of my good friend's little boy three days before Easter, and I remember after our Easter egg hunt in our yard with the kids we just didn't even have it in us to go to Church or visit with family. It was such a hard time. So ... Read More
