A Quick Update {23 Weeks}

Registering for Baby #2

One of the downfalls of being a military family is being away from family during those big moments in life- like having a baby! During my pregnancy with Shaun, we lived in California- across the country from all our loved ones...in fact, this pregnancy is the first time that ANY of our family or fr…

Scriptures for Autism Moms {Autism Awareness Month}

Before we head home to visit family for the weekend, I wanted to share a few scriptures that I have found comfort in during our journey with Autism in hopes that those who are perhaps going through the same struggles will find some comfort in them when they need it as well. Being a mother of a chi…

Baby Fashion with My Little Legs {Review}

I have a confession to make: I LOVE leg warmers- adults, kids, babies...they're all ridiculously cute!! So it was no surprise to most who know me well that our sweet girl would end up with quite the collection. When it comes to baby leg warmers, there are a ton of cute options out there. Today …

Instalately {4/17}

Have I mentioned Shaun is a Thomas fan!? Of course I have! Here he is showing off a very small portion of his extensive Thomas train collection. He's pretty proud of it!! Right now he has Trackmaster, Tomy, Wooden Railway and Takealong trains...but he's hoping to add some Bachmann trains to…

Inside His Mind {Autism Awareness Month}

As a mother to a child with Autism, I am sure I am not alone when I say that I would love to see into my child's mind for just one day. My little man, like most with Autism in my opinion, is incredibly brilliant. He taught himself to read at just 2.5 years old (or sooner, we only discovered it …

Maternity Fashion with Everly Grey {Review}

When it comes to maternity fashion, comfort is key! Between backaches, feet pain, nausea, etc...the last thing you want is to be forced into uncomfortable clothes right? At the same time, we want to show off our growing bumps and remain as fashionable in pregnancy as we are otherwise! Throughout th…

21 Weeks

21 Weeks!!

This week I can't help but ask the question- how can a baby so tiny (8 ounces at our ultrasound a few weels back) feel SO heavy! Seriously! I think she must be growing too...I went from getting full super quickly, to feeling hungry all the time! Aside from that- again no real changes …
