I love being pregnant and I love not being pregnant anymore after nine months. I love seeing the face of the little human who has been kicking me for the last couple months and having them steal another piece of my heart. I love how the more kids I have, my love only multiplies not divides. I love those first days with our bebe when Bruce hangs out with me all day long. I love when my mom watches the girls and people bring meals so I don't have to think about it. I love the footprints they take ... continue reading...

A Pinterst Worthy Photo
Like any new mom of three, I've been trying to get pictures of all my kids together. All three of them. I've been pinning sibling photos on Pinterest to get inspired but my results are never quite the same. These three are a bit chaotic and mostly unpredictable (as are my days!)

Hilde’s 4th bIrthday Party
Hilde's 4th birthday landed in the middle of the newborn days with our littlest Mayberry so I was unsure what we would be able to do to celebrate. But since birthdays are a big deal around here, I knew we had to do something! Since our Hilde Joy turned 4 (how?!?!) I felt she deserved a bit of a say in our festivities. I told her we could go somewhere fun just our family (like the North Pole) or we could have friends over for cake. She picked the later (as this social butterfly ... continue reading...
Our Boy Nursery Reveal
Welcome to Thorin's nursery! It is so fun to have a boy room to put together. Not one thing of pink or floral... okay, well the stacking bears does have a rose blush colored one but I just had to add the warmth and it was cuter than the blue set ;) This room operated as guest bedroom/ storage space for the last two years but just weeks before Thorin's birth, it was finally transformed into his nursery! We couldn't be more thrilled with it even if it is a moodier look than we usually do! I guess ... continue reading...
