Has it really been a month already? Wow, does time go by faster with each kid! It feels like we just brought him home from the hospital last week. But anyways, it’s been a whirlwind of a first month. This being my 3rd baby I honestly didn’t have too many assumptions for what the first …
Tips for an easier Sunday morning:
We all know the Sunday drill of rushing out the door 2mins past departure time. The last minute outfits and food prep, and all the in between that happens on a day not filled with rest, that’s kind of supposed to be about that…rest.🤣 And while everyone still has those days sometimes, I’ve been able …

My Breastfeeding Journey with Felicity. What worked this time!
19 months. It seems it just was the right time with both of my sweet babies. My sweet girl just finished nursing 2 weeks ago and it was a smooth transition for which I’m so thankful. After a much harder time with my firstborn I’m so happy to say this one was much easier. She …

Mother’s Day Memory
I remember my first Mother’s Day 4 years ago. 🩷I had found out just a week before that I was pregnant with Hudson and was still not only processing the surprise, but also hadn’t shared it with anyone accept our parents. I didn’t have all the warm fuzzy feelings about being pregnant yet or didn’t …
Switch it up! How I’m changing our week to serve us as a family better.
If you receive my newsletter then you know that the last 1-2 months I’ve found that our weekdays aren’t flowing for us very well. We’re in a bit of a schedule routine rut, and it felt like it wasn’t serving our family well. Right after Hudson was born I loved Monday’s. Crazy right?! It was …
“If the ring still fits.” My postpartum body changes.
Something that I haven’t shared a lot about, is my weight loss after having each kid. After my pregnancy with Hudson, I was able to lose the weight quickly for the most part. My body went back to much of the way it was before. I mean of course I had some loose skin a …
Just a letter of gratitude from a mama
Laying in bed tonight looking at pictures of my babies and just feeling an overwhelming sense of thankfulness. My children bring me an incomprehensible amount of joy. The love they have for their daddy and me, and for each other just melts my heart. I love watching them play and giggle together. Felicity already takes …
