I created my Facebook account in 2007 when I was in 8th grade while I was at a friends house for a sleepover. It was the next big thing in the social media world and all my friends were signing up. My Facebook journey has been all over the place to say the least – from […]

thankful thursday #15, #16 and #17
I’m a tad behind on my Thankful Thursday posts, but I that doesn’t mean I haven’t been keeping a list of things I’m thankful for. So let’s play catch up – Thankful Thursday #15 Flowers In the hospital, I received a bouquet of flowers from my job, which was a pleasant surprise and […]
week 3 with emmaline
Week #3 with Emmaline was more homey than week 1 and week 2 – mainly because we had a big project for school to prepare for, but it was kinda nice to have a couple PJ days and afternoon naps. She’s been spending a little more time awake these days, so we try to maximize […]
week 2 with emmaline
Week #2 with Emmaline started with taking newborn photos. Just chilling on the couch with my girls <3 We got last minute tickets to the opening baseball game of the season, so Emmaline went to her first baseball game. Big sis helped put Emmaline’s pants on and pushed her around the living room in her […]
week 1 with emmaline
Once we came home from the hospital on Thursday (4.5.18), we started learning more about Emmaline and her personality in addition to figuring out how to balance life with 2 kids.

But on Wednesday (4.11.18), I broke out my newborn props and picked up my DSLR to photograph our newest addition. Since my mom was in town, she […]
at the hospital with emmaline
Emmaline’s birth story was so different from Rylie’s birth story, and each hospital stay was different as well. After Emmaline’s rapid entrance into the world, I was quickly reminded the first night of our hospital stay that newborns do not sleep through the night, and despite the seemingly endless amount of energy I seemed to […]
emmaline’s birth story
Back at my 37 week appointment, my doctor asked me if I didn’t have Emmaline by my due date week, if I wanted to just wait it out or if I wanted to be induced. Since I had been induced with Rylie, I knew what to expect, so I said I wanted to just be […]
thankful thursday #14
As I’m sitting here in the hospital staring at our newest addition, all I can really think of is how thankful I am for Emmaline! But in attempts to have some kind of a list for this week’s Thankful Thursday post, there were a few other things that happened this last week that I’m appreciative […]
