What A Difference A Year Makes
Happy Monday to you! How did the weekend treat you?! I’m fairly certain that both of our kiddos were conspiring against us on Saturday…but despite that, we still managed to get out of the house for some fun with friends! Lucas’s pal Kaura had her birthday party, so we ventured out to ...

One Inning
I was going to go ahead and make today’s post the usual Fun Facts Friday post, but I really didn’t have all that much I could come up with. So instead, I’ll share our Wednesday evening! Sooo, we attempted our first legit public outing (not just a quick run to the store) on Wednesday night as a ...

Alex: 2 Months
Here we are, two months in with two kiddos. And let me tell you…a LOT has changed since Alex’s one month update! In Alex’s last update post, I made it no secret that things had been hard. I was having an incredibly tough time adjusting to having a needy toddler and a newborn who basically ...
You Will Want to Join This Party!
Hey, friends! How was the weekend? Ours was good, but I actually don’t have all that much to show for it. On Friday night, Jay cooked an AMAZING dinner of chicken sausage, sautéed spinach and tomatoes over pasta with a garlic butter sauce. It was absolutely out of this world! ^^Having fun ...
