It's been a quiet month over here, but I'm jumping back on for another pregnancy update! I've missed blogging and I really do want to keep track of certain things for the future, it's just hard to find the time. I think this is only my second bumpdate of the entire pregnancy, actually. With Jameson [...]
I'm a little late with this post (sheesh, it's hard work keeping up with this kid) but I can't believe we have a one and a half year old! Jameson is really coming into his own now, and we see bits of each of us in his looks and personality...plus a whole lot that is [...]
Valentine's Day is over and gone, but these little treats can be made all year long! (If you end an argument with a rhyme, it's convincing all the time. I learned that from "How I Met Your Mother.") Anywho! I brought these mini heart-shaped pies to a ladies Valentine's event for my church and the [...]
I LOVE the holiday season. Some years are better than others, but this one really blew every other year that I can remember out of the water. For real, this has been my favorite Christmas. A lot of different things played into it to make it extra wonderful... the fact that Jameson was old enough [...]
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 [...]
It's been awhile since I wrote one of these updates, but Jameson just had his 15 month well-visit and I thought it was time to document all the new and exciting things in this boy's world. 🙂 He's grown a TON since I wrote his 12 month update, in every way possible! Oh, he is [...]

If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, your search ends here. I present to you the simplest, most moisturizing, most delectable homemade body [...]
Okay get ready. If you're a fan of baked oatmeal (or oatmeal in any capacity) you MUST stop what you're doing and try this recipe right now. No I'm serious, RIGHT NOW. (By the way, I've never posted a recipe on my blog before and I'm really not much of a chef, so that should [...]
Wow, okay. This post is super late. It's November and I'm blogging about Halloween. Stuff came up, things got busy, I was needed for a top secret mission. But I really do like documenting all the major holidays for future me to look back on, so here I am...blogging about Halloween in November. Hope you [...]
Monday nights are family nights for us. Alex gets home for work, we pack up Jameson and the Charlie woof, and we head over to my parents' house for dinner and dessert (right now my mom has these really yummy sugar cookies from Costco at her house, which have this weird power over me like [...]
