I've been trying to think of ways to make the "big kids" feel special now that we have a new baby that requires so much of my attention. It's my goal to carve out a little portion of the day to give them each some one-on-one time...but it doesn't always happen. The other day while Belle napped we decided to have a snack picnic in the back ... Read More

Big Sister
A lot of you have been asking how Sadie is doing adjusting to being a big sister. Well....she's pretty much blown me out of the water! She's the BEST big sister ever. Don't get me wrong, she's not perfect and has her moments, but overall she's been so so good. I'm so proud of her. Sadie has been a mommy's girl from day one (just like ... Read More
Sleep Talk
This mom of three kids thing is no joke. It's crazy. And stressful. And overwhelming. But it's pretty awesome too. Just one month in to it and I already know this is where I'm meant to be.

When you are told the anesthesiologist is on his way for some reason the contractions seem to get worse....I remember the same thing happening with Sadie. ... Read More

How I pack my diaper bag
Life with three sure has been an adjustment....but in all honesty, as hard as it is I wouldn't trade it for the world. Belle has completed our family and I can't imagine life without her sweet little self. But now, when we go out, it's quite the production. I carry so much stuff with me that my husband has referred to my bag as a "Mary ... Read More
