Chris and I really wanted to have some Halloween fun with the kids this past weekend but we had to DJ a wedding on Saturday and I had to work on Sunday. I was so bummed that we couldn’t do anything with them so my dad offered to take them to a trunk or treat.… Continue reading Trunk or Treat with Papa
Josie hates when I do her hair. Before the brush or comb even touches her hair she’s telling me, “mama you hurt me”. *Insert eye roll from mama*. She doesn’t like to sit still, she doesn’t like to have her hair combed, and she hates having the hair elastics put in. Sometimes, however, I can… Continue reading Toddler Hair
When your son asks you to make a green dog with a hat, you do what you can. My son was satisfied but he’s only 3 so he’s easy to please. Anyone else lack the artistic ability to make things that look even a little bit real with play-doh? LOL!!
My sweet babies. You two never got to have mommy to yourselves. We were never able to spend days alone together, cuddled up in the glider. You guys didn’t get to be with mommy when she was first learning to be a mommy. When you two met me, I was already a mommy to Sylas.… Continue reading JoJo and Lip
Well, Chris and I finally tied the knot! Ten days ago. July 8, 2017. We were married on the Monroe Beach Overlook in South Haven, MI. It’s part of South Beach and it was absolutely beautiful. The weather was perfect and I wouldn’t have changed a thing. The wedding was included in a package that… Continue reading South Haven Wedding
We dropped Nevaeh off at camp yesterday morning. After we got her registered and parted ways, Josie didn’t seem bothered. When we got to the car, however, she started asking, “where Yaeh?”. I told her that Vaeh was at camp and we were leaving her there until Friday. Well, Josie had a melt down. She… Continue reading Just 3 More Days…
I found this blog post while I was browsing on Facebook and it couldn’t be anymore perfect. To the mom who never gets a break: http://www.scarymommy.com/tired-mom-never-gets-break/?utm_source=momtastic.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=pubexchange_facebook It’s almost spot on for me (minus the dog and the husband coming home late all the time). I seriously feel this way almost every single day and I… Continue reading Perfect Post
Peyton and my nephew worked in Peyton’s garden. Liam is rolling over! We finally beat cradle cap, too, which is so exciting for me. Josie can now say “ketchup” and “bless you”. Oh, and Josie has yet another rash that we can’t figure out… she has the most sensitive skin (ugh!). Chris and I are… Continue reading Life Lately
My toddler’s new favorite line. Yesterday as we were leaving the park he told me, “I am so frustrated because I want to slide more”. This morning over breakfast I gave him a spoon he didn’t like and his cereal kept falling off of it so, again, he was frustrated. Josie began giggling and Sylas… Continue reading “I am frustrated”
I’m so excited!! I just received my first Melaleuca delivery today and I already put some of my new Oils in my diffuser. For some morning energy I put 3 drops peppermint, 3 drops lemon, and 3 drops frankincense (frankincense not pictured, its one I’ve had for a while) into the diffuser. It smells so… Continue reading Melaleuca Essential Oils
