My baby is officially ONE! Happy birthday, sweet girl! I can’t even begin to describe how thankful I am for YOU and how blessed I am to get to be your momma. We love you, sweet Abigail. More than you’ll ever know. Happy birthday!!!

^^hehe this picture is so bad but it makes me so happy! I love that little bug more than she’ll ever know and I’m just cherishing every morning we get to just hang out and have tickle fights because I know it won’t last forever. But right now is so, so good. Oh HI almost ONE YEAR OLD! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!?!?!? STOPITSTOPITSTOPIT! Ok this year has been one of the best and it’s all because […]

Oh hi, cutest girl in the world! Seriously, my face often hurts from smiling too big cause she just does the CUTEST THINGS! Obviously she makes you work for her smiles but those little suckers never disappoint. Greg said this has been his favorite stage yet so here we go – 10 months! Umm I suppose I should mention those pearly whites finally made their grand debut. Two on the top, two on the bottom. Bam. […]

This feels like a big deal. Is it a big deal? My baby girl is nine months old tomorrow! She’s basically like a little person! …that has opinions and screams and throws tantrums! (she obviously got that from her father… everyone knows I’ve never spoken above a whisper…) She’s a master of fighting sleep and if you dare to pick her up, she has no intention of EVER being put down. This is my nine […]

Hi, remember us? I’ve been majorly failing at keeping track of our going ons… in my mind I’ve been painting, painting, and painting some more but my phone suggests otherwise… obviously there was that one time where Abbie was a baseball rockstar and stormed the field (pictured above)… there was a dreamy breakfast date with my husband that I’m still in a hubby haze over… there were lots of meltdowns and giggles and hand holding […]

We made it! Let’s just break this month up into the two parts it really was. First we have a new baby – one I’ve never met before. She doesn’t have the capacity in her sad, tormented life to muster up a smile or any sort of resemblance of a giggle for the endless amounts of entertainment her mother provides her with, in the form of extreme facial distortion, dangerously good dancing skills, or the ongoing […]

…six months and five days to be exact! …and I’m late to tell you about it. But there have been a couple things going on.. weddings to help out with and ceilings that needed retouching and mooooooving to attend to so, that’s a good excuse, right? Happy half birthday my sweet little one! You, my dear, have brought such joy to our lives. I seriously cannot figure out why we got so lucky to have a […]

I know, Sweetie. I feel the same way too. I mean, just look at these poses she’s coming up with! Reaching hand. Over the shoulder I-got-this glance. Psh. Just, psh. Ok ya, I’m a little proud of this child of ours. My poor Instagram followers didn’t know what they were going to be bombarded with when they pushed follow. It went from an occasional picture of a flower or a delightful drink to LOOKIT I HAVE A […]

My my I love this girl. I’ve totally become that mom that’s completely enamored by their child… an embarrassing amount. So let’s talk about her, shall we? I love the way she’ll carry on conversations with me. I love how she feels safe with me and will fall asleep on my shoulder. I love how she kicks her legs and gives me the biggest smiles when I say hi. This motherhood thing is really the biggest privilege I’ve […]

Sigh, here we are again… another month completed. This one, I tell ya, she keeps getting sweeter and sweeter and has her parents simply smitten by every grin and twinkle. And she does twinkle. Her momma’s cold appears to have revealed itself as the flu, which is appropriate since we were planning to go on a little weekend get away tomorrow. We do not have luck with vacations. Our entire honeymoon, my beloved got to watch […]
