Do you know Allison? Well...you need to! She's seriously one of the most caring friends and moms around. She's the wife of the college pastor at church and mom to 2 beautiful little girls. If Nate ever tells you his best friend's name is "My Abby"....this is her mom. And I'm not-so-secretly hoping that one day, in 20 years, our kids end up together. A mom can dream, right?[...]
The library is a big deal for us. We love books but don't want to spend a fortune or have to store a million books. We can rotate books easily through the library. Plus it's really close so it's a pretty easy outing, even with a baby. If only we could walk there! Don't get me wrong, we have tons of books. But the library gives us plenty of options and we can use t[...]
October is a month with a lot of things to celebrate. The beginning of fall, fire safety, and Halloween. Teaching a toddler about celebrating these things is so fun but who always has the best ways to describe them? Picture books and stories are so beneficial in explaining what's going on to kids. We checked out a bunch of books on Halloween and here's the narrowed down fa[...]
Truck books. I think we're read a million. Ok, maybe not a million but at least a few hundred. We had to change search topics at the library so we could mix in some other books besides just trucks because we were running out. More on how we use the library soon! Little Blue Truck by Alice Schertle - The first and original truck book in our home. His 2nd birthday p[...]
Telling the world that you're pregnant is so exciting! I never thought that I would be untelling people just days/weeks later. Now people still congratulate our family and then someone has to tell them I'm not pregnant anymore. Would I change the fact that we told everyone?!? NO WAY! If I wouldn't have shared my excitement I would be alone in this grief. Alone?!? Rig[...]
Have you heard of Little Unicorn? I stumbled upon them through Instagram (love IG!). These blankets.....I don't even know where to begin. These are my favorite muslin blankets ever!!! Beautiful, soft, large enough to cover the car seat and stroller, thin enough to not smoother our child in this Louisiana heat. First, the packaging is so pretty and sturdy. I lo[...]
The Wrap by Solly Baby is amazing. I knew that I wanted to wear our baby (Hello...HANDS FREE!) but I wasn't sure about which carrier/wrap to go with. A lot of research was put into this. We live in Louisiana and it's hot, humid, and gross most of the time. Why would I want to wrap a bunch of material around me and strap a warm baby to me also? The Wrap is e[...]
