It’s been six years since I created my baby registry during my pregnancy with Hadley, so it’s safe to say that things have evolved quite a bit since then! While some tried-and-true items are still frequently used by new parents due to their timeless, proven function (like this Fisher Price swing that both of our girls lived in!), there are… Keep Reading
My Feature in the Thriving Military Wife Series (+ How to Sign Up to Watch!)
Hello, hello! It’s currently Thursday morning, and Sadie, Teddy, and I are all sitting about as close together as we can while we watching Hotel Transylvania 3 on this rainy day (and I type away on this post of course!)

How We Successfully Navigate Afternoon Quiet Time (for Kids Ages 1-5)
Having good infant sleepers is not something that I can add to my motherhood resume, but toddler/preschool sleep is my JAM. “They” (whoever “they” is) always say that if it’s one kid who is being difficult with something, it’s probably just their personality, but if it’s two+ kids, it might (but not necessarily) be you.

A Day in the Life | February 4th, 2019 (H: 5YO and S: almost 3YO)
Ahhhh, time for a bi-annual “Day in the Life” post. 🙂 My love for going back and re-reading these posts gives me more than enough fuel to continue publishing them twice a year like I have since 2014. Watching our girls grow up before my very eyes as I click from one “Day in the Life” post to the next… Keep Reading
