1. Last day of July. Wow…how did we get here already? Not that I’m complaining though…I’m okay with having this month behind us. 2. We have got quite the little fish on our hands. The child absolutely looooves the water, and gets more and more daring by the day. Oh lord, help me. 3. I ...

Looking on the Positive Side
When I reflect on this past month, I can think of about a hundred different ways to describe it. …sad…emotional…exciting...hectic…scary…annoying…happy…busy… Just to name a few. The month started off on the worst note of all, when we found out about our miscarriage the day after returning ...
My New Favorite Martini
I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned this on here before, but if I had to choose a day of the week that is just the absolute worst, it’s Tuesday. Jay is totally on board with me on that one, too. I mean, with Monday, you’ve got the business of a new week happening. Wednesday, you’re half way to the ...
The Perfect Choice for Celebrating
We had a great second birthday over here yesterday! And just like last year, I made sure to take one last picture of him last night before he officially became a two year old. Jay was all concerned about me waking him up and I said, hey…pictures are a priority. Right? As for the day, ...
And Then He Turned Two
As I sit down to type up this post late on Sunday evening, I can’t help but think just how blessed we are. I’m ending today with a stuffed belly, a flood of emotions, and a happy, happy heart. Yesterday, we celebrated our little Lucas turning two, which is actually today. I still can’t get over ...
Weekly Meal Plan {7/26}
Meal plans (if you can even call them that, really) are looking MUCH different around here lately. Granted, summer meals are always a bit more casual for us, since we’ve usually got a lot going on. But with Jay having been gone for work the past two weeks, and with not being in our own house, I’ve ...
Fun Facts Friday {7/24}
1. Hoooorayyyyy for Friday! I’ve been either a day ahead or behind pretty much all week, which can be super annoying (yay it’s Thursday! Oh wait…it’s only Wednesday). And Jay has also been away for work again this past week (booo), but he's coming back today and we’ve made it to Friday. Life. is. ...
Can I Keep These Things Alive?
Thank you to Ricola® Herb & Throat drops for sponsoring this post as part of an ongoing campaign with Socialstars. #swissherbs I love blogging. For so many reasons. It gives me the opportunity to chat with way more people than I typically encounter in person on any given day, it has connected ...
July Stitch Fix Review
So I know I mentioned it last week, but I got a new Stitch Fix this month, and wanted to go ahead and share it with you all! In case you’re new to Stitch Fix and how it works, you can read all about it in my first post about the service, HERE. Unfortunately, because I waited for so long to ...
Missed Meals {+ 4 Salad Combos to Try Today}
Every once in a while, I'll have to go through the hundreds (err, thousands) of photos on my phone to clear out space. I'm not the only one who has to do this, right? Well the other day, as I was going through my usual cleanup, I noticed that I had quite a few food pictures on there from the past ...
