I love all things Etsy. I love buying mom-made, I love owning cute and unique items. And if I could, I would shop from some of my favorite etsy shops all day, every day. {But I’m pretty sure my husband wouldn’t be really happy about my spending money like that. :)  } I have recently […]

I really, really love my husband. He’s a great guy and he’s so good to me. But you see…there’s this other guy. This really, unbelievably cute guy that I am sort of crazy in love with, too. He’s not necessarily tall dark and handsome. But kind of short, with a little pudgy belly, and to […]

I did not schedule a post for today. I wanted to, but I didn’t. Because I am angry. I mean extremely, unrealistically mad. That doesn’t happen to me very often. Honestly. If you don’t believe me, I’ll let you talk to my husband. I just don’t get mad. In all reality, I just don’t really care. […]

This month, iheartfaces is hosting an unbelievable giveaway. I usually don’t enter these things, but I want to win this one bad enough that I figured it wouldn’t hurt to give it a shot. They are giving away a FREE ticket to Amy Wenzel’s photography workshop in Grand Rapids, MI. In order to enter, you have […]

Life has me overwhelmed right now. I am feeling so many different emotions right now, I can’t really even begin to put them all into perspective. It’s kind of crazy and, in all honesty, it gives me a headache. I’m feeling so unbelievably excited that things are finally about to take off for us. I’m […]

Find the balance between being a wife and a mother is hard. It’s a headache. It’s an adventure. It’s a never ending choice that has to be made: “What is going to be the most important thing to me today?” And I feel like more often than not, our poor husbands lose out on that […]

I went upstairs and layed in the bed with the hubby for about 30 minutes or so before I realized that I wasn’t going to be able to go to sleep. The giveaway? When I noticed that I was laying on my back {which I only do when I can’t sleep} staring up at the […]

Hello my most favorite people ever! Hope you guys have been more productive than I have are having a wonderful weekend. In true totally random tradition, I have several completely pointless mind dumping thoughts {and even a few photos} for you. We have completed 98% of the painting in our living room and foyer. I was […]

16 months. That’s how old Little Man will be tomorrow. 16 whole months old. Holy cow, where has the time gone? He certainly isn’t the baby boy that I can still feel myself holding, wrapped up in a blanket, and humming to. I can’t get him to sit still that long, much less actually wrap […]

I’m a little stuck as to how to start this post. Could be because I’m only halfway concentrating as I sit here at my computer munching on a leftover cinnemon roll and listening to Jason Aldean on CMT. Or because it’s unusually cold in my living room this morning and I’m sitting right beside the […]
