Ten Things That Make Me Happy 1. Having a DVR to Catch Up on Shows…we waited to jump on this bandwagon, but now that we have it, I cannot imagine life without it. It makes watching shows so much shorter by skipping all those pesky commercials, and being able to tape Caroline’s cartoons for major meltdown moments.  […]

I feel like I am kind of “cheating” on this challenge, as I am still doing a few posts at a time, but that counts, right? Yes, I am saying this to make myself feel better, and hope you don’t mind either. I’ll just use the excuse that we were on vacation at the beach […]

It’s funny how being a mom changes you in so many ways…makes you think about your children first and things that used to matter don’t seem nearly as important as they used to. I feel very fortunate to know this kind of love now, and it makes me appreciate my mother and grandmother more so […]

We bring you this regularly scheduled blogging post with breaking news…I FINALLY talked my best friend/aka godmother to my babies, Meg, into guest posting here on the old blog while I’m away at the beach. We have been discussing this for some time now, and I was so glad when she said she would write […]

Day 6: What Do You Do? Here is where it comes to the ever-popular SAHM (stay-at-home-mom) question and answer session. I remember I used to think “So, you’re a SAHM? What is it exactly that you do?” and then I had a child of my own and figured it out all too quickly. Kinda like […]

I’m jumping on the bandwagon two days late for this fun little challenge, but I have been struggling to come up with blog content like my good friend, Sara from Running From the Law, so I thought this would be a fun way to show off some new stuff…let’s see how well this goes (P.S. […]

Beaching it up with the family begins in a mere 2 days and I am anxiously awaiting our trip to one of my favorite places…Rosemary Beach, Florida! Mom and I went there a few years ago for a week long girl’s trip and we have wanted an excuse to go back ever since. Between the […]

I think my body is still trying to recover from this weekend and all the shenanigans that went down…we might be approaching 30, but we still pretend we’re in college ;). Friday night, our weekend guests (Bev and Christian) arrived in town and we took in Local Taco for dinner…Little Miss decided not to nap […]

When the fine folks at Southern Living contacted me with an AMAZING mint julep recipe to celebrate all things for the Kentucky Derby from their new cookbook Feel Good Food, I couldn’t resist sharing with y’all. Even better, they have a fun and festive idea of setting up your very own mint julep bar for your […]
