2018 Home Goals

Well, it’s April…and we’re just now getting our list of home goals finalized and shared with the world. So…I should PROBABLY make the list a bit smaller…especially considering we hardly accomplished anything on our list last year. But…I am a dreamer. And a do-er. And even though we’re already a quarter of the way through the year, I think we’ll manage to cross off most of these things this year. Or at least we can

A Small Bathroom Update

Today I’m sharing a SUPER quick update I did in our master bathroom. It’s a small thing that is making a big difference. Well, actually two small things, and I should say they are making a difference…to me. Wyatt probably doesn’t care as much. First, I bought a new toothbrush holder. Simple enough, but what a change. We went from this: To this: The one I bought, which you can grab using an affiliate link, HERE,

A Bigger Basement Book Nook

Life is moving sooo fast these days. We have actually carved out some time to do some projects, which is exciting, but now I need to get them on the blog here. Today, I’m sharing a little update we did to the basement and an OOPS moment I had recently that cost us some cash. You may remember I shared our reading corner in the basement family room back in October before Emma was born.

Emma’s Birth Story – Part 2

For PART 1 of this story, CLICK HERE. So, we had decided we’d okay them breaking my water at 10:30 AM, but the doctor came in a little after 10 and was ready to do it then because I was still only like 6.5 cm. Like I said in the previous post with the first part of the story, I wasn’t a big fan of his communication style. I sort of felt like he was a

Emma’s Birth Story – Part 1

It’s been over three months since Emma was born and I honestly, life hasn’t really slowed down at all with her entrance into the world. But, life is grander than ever before and I’m excited to finally share her birth story here. I’ll admit it wasn’t exactly the experience I imagined, but she has been a wonderful little bundle of surprises from the very beginning. While we thought we were ready to try and grow our family with

2017 Home Goals Recap (Spoiler–it’s not looking good)

Well, I’ve been putting this off for long enough. It’s time to look back at how we did on our home goals for 2017 and I can tell you right now that this won’t be pretty. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to cross off even half of the list. Maybe not even a quarter of the list. Yikes. To be fair to ourselves, we didn’t know we would be conceiving and birthing a

Christmas At Home

This year, one of my only goals for the Christmas season was to slow down. Do less. Buy less. Sit more. Breathe more. And while we still had many, moments of hectic busyness, I do think we succeeded. Of course, the wrapping is not done. And technically, the shopping is not done. Or the baking. But that’s okay. It will get done. Or it won’t. And that’s okay. But, we did sneak away for a couple

Dressing Up the Nursery Dresser

Well, friends, the nursery is still not 100% done, but I want to go ahead and start sharing a few details of putting together this space before too much time goes by and I forget too many of the details. #BabyBrain #INeedSleep So, one of the things we needed for the room was a dresser, and I originally wanted to source one locally, but after looking around for a week or so, I ended up finding
