I wish I could take the credit for this genius idea, but I can’t. Julie from the blog Peanut Butter Fingers shared it and after trying it myself, I had to pass it along. We’ve never been baby food pouch people, but I do know a good price when I see one, and Aldi’s pouches […]

being the shaver crew || july 2019
July was not my strongest month when it came to blogging. My #1 priority was to share our Hawaii trip and thankfully, that got done! Outside of that, I really just shared weekly bump updates. Real life, however, was a frantic mess. July was consumed by personal deadlines and Aaron got a job so our […]
bump update :: 35 weeks
Week 35 Symptoms :: I visit the bathroom a lot more because if Paisley even taps my bladder I feel like I’m going to explode. My appetite also comes and goes – sometimes I’m starving and other times I have to force myself to eat. My body feels like it’s completely given up too because I […]
paisley’s baby shower
Once we found out baby #3 was a girl, I honestly wasn’t planning on having a baby shower. I felt like I had everything we needed. Then a mama friend of mine with 4 of her own insisted on hosting at least a “diapers and wipes” party. I decided that would actually be extremely helpful. […]
our trip to texas
When we received the invitation to Aaron’s childhood best friend’s wedding in Texas, we were not 100% sure we would be able to make it. But thankfully all the right things came together and we loaded up our family for a 15+ hour (longer with stops) drive to Edinburg, Texas. We left Wednesday (8.21.19) night […]

best books for 1-year-olds – usborne books & more
I shared with you my current personal favorite Usborne Books & More titles for baby, but there is so much development that happens in the first year that I couldn’t pass up sharing which Usborne Books & More titles I think are best for 1-year-olds. I love 1-year-olds. Of course there are challenging days but […]
july 4th, 2019
Yes, you read the title correctly. I’m recapping our 4th of July over a month late 😛 The day started off with a delicious breakfast – our attempt of Hawaiian french toast, eggs with sausage and a patriotic fruit tray. It was delicious and extremely filling. From there I thought it would be fun to […]
letters to paisley || 34 weeks in my belly
Dear Paisley, I can’t believe we have 6-ish weeks until we get to see your little face, watch you yawn and kiss your chubby cheeks. I’m so curious what you will look like but I know your heart will be even more beautiful than anything we see on the outside. You have been my most […]
our maternity session – paisley
Maternity photos are one of those shoots I make a priority, and it has become a tradition for my incredible sister-in-law to take them and I love it. Not just because of the photos, but I feel like it’s become a special act of love that I never take for granted. I think maternity photos say […]
