week 1 with spencer
The beginning of our first week with Spencer was spent in the hospital. Once we got home, we were greeted by very excited big sisters eager to meet their baby brother. Although the first several minutes were exciting, Paisley did have her realization that Baby got a lot of my attention and she was not a fan. […]
spencer’s newborn session
It’s become a tradition for me to take the kids’ newborn pictures when they’re 8days old. It’s something I enjoy doing & I really don’t need the fancy, styled and heavily edited pictures some studios offer. I just want to remember their little features and the newborn cuteness! Spencer’s pictures were different because, well, BOY! […]

new items I bought for baby #4
Baby #4 honestly didn’t need much because I saved a lot from my other three kids. From the moment we found out we were pregnant with our first, we intentionally kept large baby items (stroller, bath, crib, towels, swaddles, etc.) gender neutral. After having three girls, when we found out baby #4 was a boy, […]
3rd trimester oily must haves
I shared my must haves for those 1st & 2nd trimester days – now I’m excited to share with you what I used on the regular during my 3rd trimester. Please remember I am not a medical professional and definitely did a lot of research before this pregnancy. I’m fully comfortable using the products/oils I […]
bump update :: 38 weeks
Alrighty friends – this is my last bump update for Little Man. I likely won’t get far enough into the 39th week to make an accurate post so this is it. As always, thank you for sharing this journey with me & being invested in how I’m feeling week to week. It’s been fun. Week […]
