    How My Kids Usually Find Me During Hide and Seek

    I just wanted you guys to know I actually really am good at hiding. But my dogs are always thwarting my sweet hide and seek moves.

  • How to Make the Best Cup of Coffee

    I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Folgers. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for my participation. It’s been a good long while since I’ve been able to properly celebrate Fancy Coffee Friday, out at a coffee house sipping a mocha…

  • Can I Have Just Two More Minutes?

    “Can I have just two more minutes?” Anyone who’s been anywhere fun with Josh and I plus kids has heard this from Phil at the end, when it’s time to pack up and go home. And when those two minutes are up, we get asked for another two minutes. I have to tell you. I’m…

  • You’re Not My Best Friend Anymore

    We… have had our hands full lately, Josh and I. That is an understatement. Along with our crazy work schedules and ten acres of fixer-upper farm to contend with, there are two small children that we just can’t seem to stop taking care of. We just like them is all. That doesn’t always mean they’re…

  • When Your Kid Has a Bad Dream

    “I had a bad dream!” We hear our four year old utter this sentence at least three to four times a week in our house. Probably more. Usually, it’s a ploy to come sleep in mom and dad’s bed. I know this because he’ll yell it literally 3 minutes after bedtime, when there’s no earthly…

  • Hand Drawn Lettering and Inspiration for Moms – Words to Live By

    I’m fully aware how ironic it is that I’m writing about this as my morning in the office hits record levels of chaos, but I still wanted to share this hand drawn lettering with you. I shared this with my friend Melissa from church, a fellow boy mom with her hands full, on a Sunday…

  • Moms Day Out in Downtown Savannah

    During the Christmas break, the most amazing thing happened. I got a babysitter, my mom in law Carole picked me up, and we had a Moms Day Out in downtown Savannah, Georgia. Moms Day Out is all about going to places that smell good. Stores that are full of beautiful inspiring things that recharge your design…

  • All I Want for Christmas is Sleep.

    I’m really easy to shop for this year. And it’s not even going to cost you anything. Because all I want for Christmas is sleep.

  • Games Babies Play – The Glasses Stealer Edition

    I think one of the coolest things about babies is seeing their personality start to develop as they get a little older. Josh and I call it “joining the party”. I don’t know if all babies are into glasses, but Joy’s following in her big brother Phil’s phootsteps (you see what I did there?) and…

  • Just a Little Reminder That I Heart You

    Even on the hardest of days, when we all feel like nothing is going right… Even on the most ridiculous days chock full of interruptions and madness, where it feels like we’re fighting an uphill battle and making zero headway whatsoever… I still love you, more than I can say, and this is all eighty…

  • It’s All About Perspective

    There’s a lot of great things I’ve seen on the internet this week, but a stay at home mom’s piece on Babble trumped all for me. She wrote a great post about why being a stay at home mom was a luxury for her husband, and it smacked me right in my big stupid face.…
