embrace the camera {reminiscing}
This week I’m totally reminiscing of our days before baby #3, although she is with us, just in this momma’s bump. Our little guy was 2 1/2 and our little missy girl was almost 1. We were on vacation and hiked one of our favorite mountains. Our pre-marriage and pre-baby days were filled hiking these mountains on a nightly basis…. Keep Reading

Thanks girls for this little heart you made for me, on the coldest day of the winter. You may have only given me one egg that day, but this little heart made up for it. Happy… Keep Reading

Today I started the day off in a pretty bad funk. You know one of those “woe is me” days. I was tired of being home alone with the kiddo’s. I was just plain ole lonely and wanted to be living in one of my “pre-momma days.” I wanted to have my day pack and snowshoes strapped on and out… Keep Reading
