Friday! Friday! Friday! I always looked forward to the weekends, but more so than ever now that Lucy is here. It is nice to have a little mama break, and it is amazing watching Lucy and Russ interacting. I love these two so much. Hope you all have a fabulous weekend. I plan on [...]

Lucy 12 Weeks

What an exciting week it has been. It seems like Lucy’s personality has grown by leaps and bounds.It also seems like her crying has dropped off a lot. She really only cries nowadays when she is really tired or hungry. Yesterday she rolled from her back to her stomach for the first time. Since then [...]

Squash Pasta

This has quickly become one of my favorite dishes this Summer. It is something I came up with about a month or so ago after receiving an abundance of summer squash, and have made it at least once a week since. It is super easy to prepare, even with a crying three month old baby [...]

My First Video

I made my first video this afternoon. I have been playing with all sort of fun features and apps on the iPhone, and this is the result. I can’t even tell you how excited I am to make more videos documenting our little lives somewhere other than just around the house like in this video.

Five Years Ago Today…

Five years ago today, we were married. It was the hottest day I have ever experienced (117ºF). We threw the wedding together in just over a month and spent probably no more than $1500. It was the most fun day of my life. The ceremony was short, the party was big. We drank and danced [...]

Miss Lucy at 11 Weeks

Last Week on Instagram

Here are a few of my favorites from the past week or so. What a great response I got to my last post! I am really looking forward to featuring some of your blogs/shops in the side bar. In case you didn’t already see I made a note that spots are all filled, but if [...]

Calling All Bloggers!

*UPDATE* The ten spaces have been filled. If you would like to still however leave a comment in case someone falls through I can create a little waiting list. Hey bloggers and shop owners, I have a proposition for you! I want to help spread the blog love. For the month of August I [...]

Squash and Chickpea Tortilla Soup

I hadn’t planned on posting this recipe, but got a request for it after I shared the picture on Instagram. I wish I had thought of it earlier, so I could have taken a better picture with my real camera, but you get the idea. This soup is amazing. It is incredibly simple to make, [...]

Lucy at 10 Weeks

Hey look, the weeks are now in the double digits! It is amazing to see how much different Lucy looks from day to day and week to week. When she was first born I thought she looked exactly like Russ. A few weeks later I finally started seeing a bit of myself in certain expressions [...]
