Much of this year I’ve been reading through Matthew and Mark, and journaled a lot on the ministry of Jesus and all the miracles and parables he taught. And my favorites passage of it all is in Mark 5:25-34. This story has been one that I’ve read over and over this pregnancy a dozen…

A summer sets in, I love embracing all of the bright colors! After I got my color consult done with Created Colorful, and discovered I was a warm spring, I started digging through my maternity clothes and found that I had SO many black, white, and grays,- totally out of my color range.👎 So…
I exercised “sporadically” for much of my teenage years. 🙃I did it because I knew it was just good for me, not much out of a love for it.That being the case, I never was consistent. Fast-forward to being pregnant with Felicity. I got better at being consistent but I found myself doing as…
We are so excited to share that baby Racine #3 is coming in October! I did a recent Q&A answering all the questions about this pregnancy and will link it HERE! We are thankful for this growing little life and for our growing little family. God has blessed us richly! Xoxo, Shantel

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…

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…
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.
