A sweet newborn session

A sweet newborn session

Last week my talented sister Stephanie blessed our family with a newborn photoshoot for Claire! Not only did she capture all the sweet little newborn details I want to remember always, but she also made sure to give us so many gorgeous shots of our family together. Even my parents (who surprised us with a [...]

As I sit here writing this on a Sunday afternoon, all my babies are asleep. Yes, all of them (Alex and Charlie included). So it's the perfect time to finally post some of my favorites from Nora's newborn photoshoot! We considered hiring a professional photographer for these pictures but it really came down to us [...]

A simple morning

A simple morning

With the new baby coming so soon, I've been trying to find special things for Jameson and I to do together. Nothing too fancy, just little ways to fill our days with fun and sweet memories. I'm so excited to add a new little friend to our family but these last few weeks with just [...]

Our simple & sweet baby girl nursery

Our simple & sweet baby girl nursery

I'm so excited to share this today! Our baby girl's nursery is complete. I'm almost 36 weeks right now so we still had a bit of time to finish it up, but I'm so happy it's done! (Nesting totally takes over my mind at the end of my pregnancies.) We chose to go very simple and [...]

Bumpdate – 29 weeks

Third trimester already! We're almost there! This pregnancy has been flying by and simultaneously dragging on. It makes no sense but that's how it's been.

Bumpdate – 19 weeks

I'm almost halfway done with this pregnancy so I figured it's about time I write one of these! I was so consistent when I was pregnant with Jameson and posted a bumpdate once a week for the entire pregnancy. But it's much harder to be on top of things like this when you have a [...]

DIY // The easiest raised garden bed ever

Ever since we bought our first house a few months ago I've been itching to start a little patio garden out back. It's been a sort of dream of mine for awhile to grow fresh produce for my family...for health reasons, for teaching purposes (homeschool curriculum down the road?!), and just for the fun of [...]

Jameson is almost one!

Our baby boy's first birthday is fast approaching (next Monday, how?!) and we wanted to do something special as a family to celebrate his first year of life and all the wonderful ways he makes our lives better. So yesterday we had a photographer friend (Marissa Adams, of Lux & Arrow Photography) come to our [...]

DIY // Front door makeover

Yay!!! I finally finished my first home improvement project for our new house and I'm so excited about how it turned out! Ever since I can remember it's been a dream of mine to live in a house with a red front door. And even though our new house has almost everything on my dream [...]
