Last weekend was my 28th birthday! I love birthdays! Really any reason to celebrate is a good reason to me. This was my first birthday as a mama, and having Lottie with us just made it all the more special. My mom always makes a fall or Halloween celebration dinner. This year, we had a…

The Drawer that Lives Up to its Name

We all have it. We try not to, but some way or another, it just happend. Yup, I’m talking about the infamous junk drawer. Our kitchen has only a few drawers, so it is a coveted space. The junk drawer has always bothered me, but recently, it just felt dirty, and I knew it was…

I am not a huge music girl. I am awful at finding new music, and it is embarrassing how many songs I don’t know that were popular when I was growing up. But when I do find music I like, I listen to it over and over. Like for years. I have a few go-to…

Let’s be honest, I love buying things. I love finding something pretty or useful and adding it to my virtual or literal cart. I love getting home and finding a new spot for the item. I love it when a package arrives at my house. The whole shopping experience is just my favorite. I thought…

I bring Lottie with me to the office on Tuesdays and it can be a lot. Trying to juggle a baby and work in a space that is not your own can be challenging, but I am so grateful to spend the day with her. Even though it is hard, it is always worth it.…

Lottie got a bouncer! She is loving this new development of being able to stand and reach her toys. Before when we needed to put her down, we would put her in her swing or bouncer or just lay her down. Now that she can roll, we can’t just set her on the couch and…

Thirty days of The Good And The Grateful! While not all thirty days have been consecutive, I am so excited that I have stuck with it and found the good in each day and taken the time to document them. This is such a fun way of recording the beautiful mundane in my life. I…
