Seventeen months ago I wrote a post on this very topic and now we are back full circle as we expect baby #2! While there are a lot of things that are/ were the same, it is also so different this time around! But I guess, like any good story, we have to start at the beginning. I knew I was pregnant before I took the pregnancy test. I could just tell. It was the morning of my 31st birthday (May 10th 2019) and I decided to take a pregnancy test. I then proceeded to take two more through the ... continue reading...
The Best Baby Shoes for New & Almost Walkers
I blinked and my crazy crawler turned into an almost walker. Hilde is pulling herself up onto all the things these days, scooting along the edges of all the things, and even doing the occasional "look mom no hands!"

I do not know what to expect with two kiddos! I guess we ... continue reading...

The Surf Hotel in Buena Vista
Oh hey! Birthday weekend recap coming your way! Get excited - it's one of the best! For my birthday weekend we went to Buena Vista (one of my favorite Colorado towns) and we stayed at the beautiful Surf Hotel. I remember it being built and knew that one day I wanted to stay there! Bruce took off work on Friday (my birthday) so that we could take our time driving up to the mountains. My birthday is in May and I live in Colorado so it is really hit or miss with the weather. I always want it to ... continue reading...
