Getting my body back after Sully was a breeze. I almost felt guilty with how easy it was. I breastfed, and BOOM, bye-bye pounds. HELLLLLOOOOOOO “Wedding Day” weight! I was in my pre-pregn...
The fourteen-year-old in me really wanted to title this post, “A Little T & A,” but I assumed that it would result in quite a few annoyed teenage boys when they pulled up my blog rat...
We stumbled off the cruise ship, dazed from too many drinks and too many days without our legs meeting land. We clutched each other’s hand, laughing and carefree. Fueled on honeymoon sex and ne...
The hubs is out of town on a training thingy thing that the Army makes people do sometimes (he’s getting to do super cool shit like jump out of planes), so I’m in over my head in babies. ...
Seven years ago, we met on the back of a pick-up truck. Six-and-a-half years ago, he told me he loved me, and I said I loved him, too. Five years ago, he proposed under the gazebo on the battery in C...
We are learning many, MANY lessons in these first few weeks as homeowners living in the home. Like; Mr. Clean Magic Erasers will remove rogue Vintage Teal paint from white trim. Spiders are a statewi...
This weekend was our first, official weekend living the small town life. While we were in Virginia and Georgia, we were in smaller suburbs of bigger cities that had a ton to offer (Richmond and Savan...
We’re here! And everything is crazy and chaotic and messy and dusty, but we’re here! And we had to pay a $300.00 bill for air already…boo. Clearly our house is teaching us the joys ...
You know what that means, right? It means I’m running around like a crazy person, packing, wiping butts, convincing the hubs to let me buy more pillows from Target, and potentially hooking up a...
This morning, I awoke with a start. I sat straight up in bed, reaching out for Taylor. He was long gone as he is most mornings. The life of an Army wife means a stolen kiss at dark thirty while he sl...
We’ve spent the last few nights packing and packing and packing. Oh, and watching The Voice. Isn’t Juliette awesome? And packing some more. And still our house is about half packed, and I...
It was a long weekend in these parts. We loaded up Friday morning and headed to North Carolina where we met my mom. After a quick kiss and letting the boys run around for a minute, we loaded them bac...
Hi everyone. Taylor’s grandmother passed away unexpectedly yesterday. We’ll be taking off this weekend to wrap up loose ends on the house and spend time with family. We appreciate any tho...
Taylor called it “Pasta Stir fry,” so that’s what we’re dubbing it. But it’s not really a stir fry. It is the most amazing, yummy, healthy pasta I have ever made, and I ...
Amidst all our “happy, happy, joy, joy!” posts about the way our house is coming along, there has been lots and lots of help and trials and errors along the way. I’m afraid I may ha...
There is one thing I’ve learned as a blogger: Everyone has an opinion (you know, kind of like assholes). The old saying? It’s so right. And when you decide to lay your life out in the spa...
Something really bizarre happens when your baby turns nine-months-old…atleast, this has been my experience. First? They are this lovey, happy, awesome person. Seriously, nothing in the world is...
I find it incredibly cool how much babies change as they age. There are huge differences in their behaviors, quirks, and personalities month from month. It’s almost like they have multiple pers...
We headed down to the new house this past weekend with every intention of being super productive. Taylor planned on finishing laying the floors in the rest of the closets and trimming up as much as h...
The thing about raising babies is that the minute you figure out a schedule/plan/routine, everything changes. They grow so quickly. Their needs change and evolve. A bedtime that once included bath, b...
I’ve been thinking about how to make the boys’ room when we move in, in less than a month (squeeeee!!!!). The boys will be sharing a room. I’m seriously nervous/excited about this, ...
Easter was nice, quiet, and simple this year. A big breakfast of pancakes. A basket of goodies. A happy baby in a Jumparoo. A surprise when the littlest decided to stand up on his own. Lots of boy fu...
Holidays don’t feel quite the same when you’re so far from family. Sure, our little family celebrates together. We will wake up Easter morning. I’ll cook a big breakfast. Sully will...
Life is beginning to gear up again for our next big change. We are a month away from uprooting our family once again and moving from Virginia to the Carolinas. Home again. Home for once (but not nece...
You know it’s going to be a long day when the morning nap starts before 7:00AM. Yesterday, a cold hit Arlo HARD. It happened so quickly, I didn’t even have the necessary supplies on hand ...
If you recall, we have built-in shelves in our formal dining room. I can’t find any good pictures of them. In fact, all I can find is this picture where you can kind of see a tiny, little piece...
This weekend was a BIG weekend. We left Virginia at about 4:30PM and pulled up to my parents’ house a little past 10:00PM. We got babies in bed by 11:00PM (poor guys) and crashed. At 5:00AM Sat...
I’ve been exclusively breastfeeding Arlo for about nine months now (in a couple weeks!). I’ve been pumping for six of those months. In case you weren’t a reader when I first started...
I picked up these bowls at a local antique mall last week. I have stared at them happily ever since. The vendor cut me an amazing deal, and they make me so happy. I am dying to stick them on a shelf ...
Our kitchen is thisclose to being liveable. Well, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. There is quite a bit left to go, but we are slowly, but surely, chipping away at it bit by bit. This upcoming ...
