All About Our Sweet Jillian at the Six Month Mark
Jillian is a whopping six months old! Half a year! And man oh man, does she know how to make me us very happy parents. I’m not sure I’ve done many (any??) posts where I share updates specifically about Jillian, but today I want to zero in on all things related to our “oops caboose” and our “best bonus baby… Keep Reading
An Enjoyable Weekend With Friends
This past weekend was the kind that left me feeling grateful and immensely happy by the end of it. Despite a fever for Sadie, a tornado warning in the middle of a baby shower, and Jamie drilling with the Reserve both Saturday and Sunday, it was still just the absolute sweetest few days. On Friday night we beat the rain… Keep Reading

Because this day is… Keep Reading
Christmas & New Years Eve Shenanigans 2019

Like, if I didn’t write this blog post and record some special memories in our family Christmas book, I’m not sure I would remember a thing about Christmas this year because it all really felt like a blur. Whew! By the time we got back from our Thanksgiving beach trip… Keep Reading
Our Favorite Amazon Purchases from the Last Six Months
One of my plans for the day was the do a quick write-up about our family’s favorite Amazon purchases from the last six months or so, so I found it funny that random Amazon purchases came up in conversation with friends at church after the service this morning. I think one friend complimented another friend’s earrings (that she said were… Keep Reading
