I've found that I can take a lot of photos but not all of them make it to the blog. A lot are just random and fun and don't fit into a post of their own but I find that I still want to look back on them in the future. It's funny really, I am waaay back into blogging being the story of our lives that I can look back on and see growth, change, memories. I went through a season trying to make this blog fit a certain mold. I tried to "find my nitch" to "fill a gap in the market" but in doing that, I ... continue reading...
Our Christmas Day
This Christmas was a first for us on many fronts. It started off with a scare on Christmas Eve which left Hilde with family and Bruce and I in the hospital seeing if Millie would be joining us for the holiday! After some monitoring and good news, we were released but missed Chirstmas Eve dinner.

Half them work at Disney and the other half just had a ... continue reading...
Happy Baby Belly
The last time I took belly face photos I posted them on my due date. Our sweet Hilde Joy was one full week late and the anticipation was so crazy. It is so funny how you get set on that "due date."

Celebrating Galentine’s Day!
This post has been sponsored by American Greetings. All thoughts and opinions are my own. There's Gnome One Else Like You. Galentine's (and Valentine's, for that matter) is in my mind & on my heart. This year, by the time Galentine's Day rolls around, I'll have another mini gal in my life! Just thinking about that melts my heart to pieces. I've always been a fan of pink and the more "girly" things in life. Now that I have two daughters, we're just diving into it—and I'm loving it! ... continue reading...
My Maternity Leave Plan
My maternity leave plan: Just wing it ;) I wrote a post last time on what my Maternity Leave was going to look like and I realized I never really came back from it. JK. I did but having a baby changed my life in the best way and also changed the trajectory of my blog. Round two is upon us and I've been asked again what my Maternity Leave will look like by friends and readers. It's funny really because I feel like so many of you have stopped expecting anything consistent from me anyways. ... continue reading...
