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

Quiet Your Mind | Destin, Florida December 2019

Last month, just three days after Christmas, all three girls and I packed our suitcases once again and headed down I-65 to Destin, Florida. My parents own a timeshare in Orlando that they frequently trade in their points for to use at other properties. For the third year in a row, they’ve booked a condo in Destin. They fell in love… Keep Reading

A Reintroduction + “Who Are You?” (Year Three!)

For the first time in my adult life, I don’t have any major life events looming this year. No deployments, no moving to a new state, no buying or selling homes, no pregnancies, no new babies. One (or more) of these things has happened every year since 2009, but 2020 is looking much more quiet. HALLELUJAH! With this year looking… Keep Reading

Celebrating Jamie’s 32nd Birthday

Jamie is his mom’s little Christmas Eve Eve baby with a December 23rd birthday, and over the years we have found many benefits to his birthday being right before Christmas. 🙂 By this point in the holiday season, we actually welcome the day where “no Christmas activities are allowed” and we focus solely on Jamie’s birthday! Because this day is… Keep Reading

Christmas & New Years Eve Shenanigans 2019

December went by in a complete flash for our family. 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

Favorite Amazon Purchases from the Last Six Months

This article contains a complete list of 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… Keep Reading

The State of the Blog: LET’S DO THIS!

Happy New Year!! Yesterday I sat down with a cup of coffee and a charged-up laptop to do some 2020 business goal-setting and planning. But you see, just that word “business” stirs up a variety of emotions for me. Is this really a business? I actually feel somewhat insecure in this area because I feel like what I do pales… Keep Reading

Meet Erica

Hi! I’m Erica, and I absolutely adore sharing my life on this website with you!

I come here almost daily to blab about all of the things related to being a regular wife and mother in today’s ever-evolving society. I share about our new home, what’s on our kitchen table, what we’re hanging in our closets, where we’re traveling to next, my crazy 5 a.m. work outs, how I make time for girlfriends, our faith, and much more. We always have a lot of balls in the air and somewhat thrive on the chaos.

I believe in the power of story-telling as a form of inspiration and entertainment, so I’m here to do both! I was born and raised in north Alabama and recently re-planted roots here again after my husband transitioned out of the Army (he is now in the Reserve and it’s going so well!) I’m a super proud mom to three little girls (ages 7, 5, and 1) who seem to be the stars of the show around here (for good reason – they’re pretty great!)

I’m so glad you found me and are here reading! I hope we can get to know each other here on the blog as well as Facebook and/or Instagram. xoxo
