That cant be comfortable, right? ***I should clarify that I dont think all headbands on babies are bad. Just the tight ones.
Drew Jones is nearing his official transition into Summa Drew. You can imagine our excitement. So Ive been thinking of all that well do and things that will make it feel all summery and good. I decid...
Well the first 10 minutes were a throwaway because it was the same date as last week. Except the guy was 25. What was that guys name? I should remember this because I think she really really likes hi...
Drew gives Westley a bath and gets him dressed for bed every night. And I basically sit downstairs and decompress or clean up the house. Ill come up after awhile to see if they are ready for me to pu...

How do I write an entire post about last nights show that was one big yawn fest? I just made myself yawn by writing the word yawn. Did you just yawn? You did didnt you. Just like I did during the ent...
Im only 28, but Ive learned some good lessons, big and small, in my life so far. I know Ill share these lessons with Westley and our other future children. Ill totally be the Mother-in-Law who is lik...
Okay yes, I watch the Bachelorette. Drew Jones and I both do. He literally did a fist pump with a "yesssssss!" when he came home from soccer last night and hadnt missed any yet because Dancin...
Feeding your baby can be confusing business. Especially when you first start with solid baby food and your baby isnt taking to it. And people start asking if he is self-feeding yet when he is like 6 ...
I was telling Drew Jones the other day, "Im excited for Mothers Day because Ive been a damn good Mom this year." I reserve cusses for things I really mean. I hope to be able to say that every...
So when I saw the cover my jaw dropped, just like yours. Here is why: That is not what breastfeeding looks like. Anyone who has ever breastfed or been around someone breastfeeding a baby child knows ...
I usually get dressed and ready for the day after Westleys first nap. Today as I was getting ready I gave him my turquoise necklace to play with. I was sitting in front of the mirror in our room clas...
A week before Westley turned one we participated in the Baby Dedication Ceremony at church. It was sweet and simple. Just right. Westley got all smiley and hammed it up when we stood up front and he ...
A thought I had today that I decided deserved ecard status. Feel free to pin and show to your husbands.
Yall I was still cookin in my slips and apron with my hair un-did when family started coming through the door. I tell you this to say, I didnt really have a lot of time to pause and take beautiful, t...
We started a birthday tradition for our little family. On April 27th at 6:08 on the dot, Drew and I sang Happy Birthday to our birthday boy. We had just parked the car on a tree lined street, Drew lo...
We had Westleys 1st birthday party at our house on Saturday. It was so much fun and I will be posting photos soon, but in the mean time I wanted to share the invitations I made! Before you go complim...
Westley. You are one. Your Mama who sometimes feels things real deeply has to swallow hard just typing that so that she doesnt start to cry. But hear me sweet sweet boy, I am not sad that you are one...
Today was my due date last year for this guy. I knew he wouldnt come on that day though. Or early. I would humor people that would say, "Oh he could come anytime!" when I was looking ripe. Bu...
The honest truth is, I enjoy cloth diapering. Here are two solid reasons (pun intended): 1. I thought I would kind of loathe them BUT the bottom line savings was so big that I kind of felt like we ha...
We have a bowl of jelly beans in our kitchen that I got for 33% off at Target. Only Target has a 33% off sale. Just make it 50% Target. Come on. Anyway, all I want to do is absentmindedly scoop up so...

We were at Home Depot and there were cute little Girl Scouts selling cookies. So naturally I bought some Thin Mints and Samoas. I ate the entire box of Thin Mints in less than 24 hours. Well thats no...
Painting by my artist husband Drew Jones. It is called "Inspired". It is the middle of March in Ohio and 70 degrees outside. This is a rare and beautiful thing so Westley, Scout and I a...
Westley, It appears that I have been too busy watching you learn to crawl, pull up on laundry baskets, fake a laugh and wave bye bye, clap your hands, sign "more" to get yourself some of thos...
I had this thought while finally washing a sink full of day old crusty dishes today. It felt like something that may be useful for someone specific to hear. The urge was so strong to write it d...
The other night I was home alone. Drew was picking up a painting, Westley was in bed and some guy pulled up came to our door and banged on it. I didnt answer because I didnt know him and I never answ...
