It’s a Christmas tradition of ours to give the kids a new Christmas book at the beginning of the month of December. We like to pair it with some Christmas jammies and an ornament. We’ve collected a lot of our own and we also have a bunch of my cousins’ old books that they graciously […]

Have I mentioned how much I love my mom friends yet? We just get each other. We can talk about anything because right now in this life, we relate to pretty much everything.

The moment I found out I was pregnant with Peyton, I knew she was going to be extremely special to us. She was unexpected and we were kind of terrified thinking we’d be parents only a year and a half into our marriage, but amidst all of our anxiety and fear of the unknown, how […]
