As the days get longer and hotter, memories from that last month of pregnancy last year have come flooding back. All the days filled with excitement and anticipation as we awaited the birth of our sweet baby girl. The days spent snuggling James and watching Disney movies. The days where my body got more and […]
I am in utter denial that in two short months Junie turns a year old. Where did my teeny little baby go? And why oh why do the days need to fly by this fast? On one hand I feel like there’s no way she is almost 1, but on the other I feel like […]
Yesterday Junie girl turned ten months old, so I guess it’s time to get to writing her nine month update! My goodness sister has been a crazy energizer bunny lately. She is always on the go, crawling around everywhere, getting in to things, playing with big brother’s toys, and smiling pretty much t he entire […]
And just like that we have an eight (and a half) month old. Next month feels SO crazy because it means she has been out of my belly longer than she was in it. It still amazes me how much faster time goes when you’re not sitting around waiting and waiting on a baby to […]
I looked at the date today and was a little shocked to realize that tomorrow June turns 8 months old. Holy moly! And of course I am just now getting to the seven month update… Whoops. This month has been so busy with lots of work, adventures and soaking in time with my two littles. […]
I not-on-purpose just took a few weeks off from blogging simply because I just didn’t have the time or motivation to create new content. The past few months have gone by in a whirlwind, and I feel like I’m just now able to catch my breath. While I LOVE being busy, taking lots of pretty […]
If you know me, then you know how much I love my carbs. Be it bread, fresh baked biscuits (with some strawberry butter, of course), pasta or really all things sweet, I’m in. Unfortunately though, apparently the baked goods I love oh so much aren’t the best choice nutrition wise – whomp whomp. And that’s […]
One of my favorite baked goods growing up was my mom’s homemade chocolate chip banana bread. She had perfected the recipe, and I’m sure the cups of sugar and butter didn’t help any. ;) So naturally as I got older, I began experimenting with my own banana bread recipes. Trust me… I’ve gone through a […]
There are only 8 days till Thanksgiving, and I’m SO excited. Not only am I SO very ready to have a week off, see my family, and take lots of pictures (that’s an understatement), but it means the holiday season is almost here, and I can’t wait! I always feel like a little kid when the […]
Well friends, it’s here. Pumpkin season has finally arrived, and I’m PUMPED. Now that it’s officially October, and cooler temps are in the forecast (unless they decide to change over the next few days…), I’m ready to start making some of my favorite fall foods. And yes, they almost all include pumpkin. I don’t know […]
Any other ice cream lovers out there? I love it, especially during the summer when all I want is something cool to eat. I have so many memories associated with ice cream, from Braum’s dates with Isaac, to making it in a machine with my mom, to going to the local peach stand near my grandparents’ for […]
This is the first recipe of September and I would be remiss if I didn’t celebrate the end of summer (aka the beginning of fall) with a yummy pumpkin recipe! These Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins are seriously SO GOOD. I know the official first day of fall is the 23rd, but I am so ready […]
When I need a quick, healthy, last minute recipe my go to lately has been this delicious Whole30 Chicken Stir Fry. It’s taken me years to create a good recipe that not only had lots of flavor and a yummy sauce, but is also healthy and wholesome. And I have to say… This recipe was […]
Growing up, I loved it when my mom made one of her go-to recipes: beef tips over noodles. It was creamy, flavorful and quickly became one of my favorite comfort foods. But when I started trying to be more conscientious about the foods I eat, I realized this recipe wasn’t the healthiest. Between the condensed […]
