Not much is new in the preggo department. I’ve been busy making preparations for Christmas and doing what I can to have…Continue Reading “Baby Bump Day | 21 Weeks”
This is an exciting one! The half way mark,when we get to find out what we’re having and I get to see my little squirmy wriggling around on the screen. That was definitely my favorite part of the sonogram. Well it’s been announced on Facebook, so that basically means the world knows, but I should…Continue Reading “Baby Bump Day | 20 Weeks”
These weeks are flying by!!! I’m excited but terrified already. The best thing about the last couple weeks has been the surge of second trimester hormones and the way that things are finally settling.

Am I a Pinterest cliche? I don’t even care. When we took possession of our new house, I saw the flower gardens, sporting dormant tufts of unknown plant variety. For some reason I just imagined green leafy bushes and ground cover… the occasional rose bush. I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to gardening,…Continue Reading “Spring Lilacs in a Mason Jar”
During the house hunting phase of this new journey in our life, there were things we I always looked for. High ceilings, lots of windows and… the kitchen of my dreams.
