Just a quick note to say that the September sponsors are up. Be sure to check them all out in the right hand side bar. There are some really fabulous blogs this month, many which are new to me as well–and I am quite excited to have found them! Also, I added some new blog [...]
Lucy at 17 Weeks
Things here in baby land have been great lately. Lucy has been getting more nap time in during the day and mama is feeling much less stressed. Even when all she takes is a twenty minute nap, I feel relieved. Twenty minutes is really all I need to catch my breath and reassure myself that [...]
Swimming and Thrifting
Here are some shots from our very relaxing weekend. Saturday we went thrifting, where I found all sorts of great things (and only spent $9!). Sunday I made us a fig and peach cobbler for breakfast (in my newly thrifted pink Pyrex) before we went over to my in-law’s house to take Lucy swimming. I [...]
Link Love
Well, I meant to get this list of links together and posted earlier in the day but hey, I have a baby. Better late than never, right? Anyway, here are some fun things that caught my eye this week. ♥ I love this DIY floral headband. So cute! ♥ Never baked bread before, but have [...]

Life According to Instagram
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. Someone decided she wanted to play last night instead of sleep, so writing a thoughtful blog post is kind of out of the question today. Yawn. Anyhow, here are some resents from Instagram. If you want to follow me there or on Twitter (pictures get posted there [...]
Link Love
Happy Friday! I saw so much neat stuff around the web this past week, I thought I would share some of my favorite links. Enjoy your weekend! ♥ Here is a darling tutorial on how to make a self zipping coin purse. ♥ Make homemade mustard. You know that is what I will be doing [...]
Free September Sponsorship
Can you believe that September is right around the corner?! I surely can’t. I am so happy with how the free ads turned out for August that I want to do it again for September. This is only open to those who did not have an ad up for the month of August. If you [...]
Lucy 15 Weeks
Today pretty much stunk. Straight up stunk. Well not the entire day, just the second half. The first half I had a lovely picnic in the park with a friend from high school. The second half though was filled with lots of tears and a broken camera. The tears were all from Lucy, but I [...]
