Hello Everyone!
As many of you know I LOVE subscription boxes. I recently had someone from Glossybox reach out to me to review one of their boxes for all of you. I have never tried Glossybox before so this is my first Glossybox Unboxing. [Read more…]
Hello Everyone!
Many mom’s expect to feel the comradery between other moms when they first join the motherhood club. However, I also joined the C-Section Mama club when my daughter was born. So in honor of C-Section Awareness Month I wanted to share my labor and delivery story, because nothing about a C-section is easy. However, despite this being an unpopular opinion, in many cases like mine, it is needed.
I want to start by saying that I ended up with an emergency C-Section and the events that led to this resulted in my daughter being born not breathing. Thankfully (as she just turned two) they were able to get her to start breathing on her own. Non-the-less I wish I would’ve advocated for myself much better during this entire ordeal.
Hello Everyone!
So I may very well be the odd ball here, but I LOVED making my own baby food. So I decided to post about How to make Homemade Babyfood! It saved me money and allowed me to know exactly what was in the food I was giving my daughter. This doesn’t mean I never gave her store bought baby food, because eventually I did, but I was very proud when I was the one who made her baby food.
I started baby girl with solid foods at around 6 and a half months old. Up until then (aside from a two week stint on formula because of her hospital stay) she was exclusively on breast milk. This is something I am incredibly proud of. Much more so than I ever expected to be once I entered into motherhood.
But like all babies eventually solid foods needed to be introduced. I knew before she was ever born that I wanted to make her baby food. So once my husband and I decided to start solids I went to work! [Read more…]

Hello Everyone!
I am so excited for Easter! I wanted to share with you some DIY Easter Basket Ideas we did for Baby Girl’s First Easter Basket.
She was only a few months old her first Easter. We couldn’t go the stero-typical route and get her chocolate, the jelly bean filled plastic eggs, or a pre-made Easter basket because of her age. So we decided to make our own with baby stuff for her to use. [Read more…]
You know how some people are “movie people”? Well – I’m a “TV Person” I LOVE TV shows.
I will choose a TV show over a movie 95% of the time. There is nothing better than curling up with a soft blanket, comfy PJ’s, and Homemade Popcorn to Binge a good TV show.
It is literally my Favorite thing to do – I just rarely get to do it (mom life). But that doesn’t mean that I don’t have a list of the Binge Worthy TV shows.
You’ve already heard all about my list of my favorite reality TV shows and why I love Reality TV so much! BUT…here is my list of non-reality TV shows that are definitely worth your Binging time! [Read more…]

I have always had this thing with wanting to make cakes for birthdays. Long before I was ever pregnant I knew I wanted to make all of the cakes for my kids. I made my daughter’s first Birthday cake and even her cake smash cake.
So here is how I made the cake! [Read more…]

Hello Everyone!
Etsy has recently become an obsession of mine! (For reals guys!).
First off, I love that you can support smaller shops with this platform. I think that alone is a great thing about Etsy. But, there are also some amazing things on Etsy guys! Some of the focal pieces of my daughter’s First Birthday party were from Etsy!
Of course my go to place for adorable Disney items for our upcoming Disney Trip is Etsy! So I wanted to share some of my Must have Disney Etsy Finds with you all. [Read more…]
Hello Everyone!
Today I wanted to share how I did my own cake smash session with my daughter when she turned one.
I know that photographers can be expensive and not everyone has the ability to have a session like this. While at the same time you want to capture all the little moments and memories that come with parenthood.
As many of you know I also am a photographer, one of the many “hats” I wear. So I always have a camera in hand (especially now that we do Weekly Vlogging). But here is what I did. [Read more…]
