{via} When I was in grad school at Ole Miss my sister and I would go out to Taylor, Mississippi, the cutest little town with a saturday morning farmers market, an adorable shop, our favorite restaurant at the time, and the southern living idea house. I went to that idea house, happily forking out ten […]
The BabyNes
**this is a sponsored post** Recently I got to test out an amazing little gadget – the BabyNes! Since Wes won’t take a bottle, and I’m still just nursing, I gave it to my girlfriend who could use it. But found myself wishing this was around when I made a bottle here and there for Tuck. […]

three little home updates
we added these botanical prints in our breakfast nook (they are from joss and main, though I haven’t spotted them lately- will let you know if I do). It’s crazy how much homier our house feels. It’s so hard for me to commit to artwork but I love how this turned out. we switched […]
somebody hold me
we dropped off tuck at the school he’ll be going to in January two mornings a week. It’s just a day to shadow, see what it’s like, and get tested. I know he’s there right now loving it and he’s well taken care of, but I’d be lying if I told you I didn’t have […]
the fire chief and his pup
photo cred: tuck I made a (cute) mistake and showed Tuck his costume on Monday when Halloween was on Saturday. Tuck wore it EVERY.WHERE beginning that moment. It was especially funny when we visited JB’s new office. The one where he pulled the fire alarm the week JB was moving in. Insert big toothy […]
fall in florida
Yesterday was Wesley’s first time really experiencing the sand between his toes and hands. He loved it and there was only one attempt at putting it in his mouth. The rest of the time was spent, as usual – tuck chasing seagulls (except he calls them eagles), and us chasing tuck. There are no […]
perspective on what makes you “rich”
{Heather made this PDF for JB’s new office. We blew it up and used Frame Bridge (which was awesome!} This is what Ted Jones said when he was asked why he didn’t take Edward Jones public and become one of the richest men in america overnight. Gives me chills every time I read it. and okay, […]
a summer salad + a leftover recipe
Since it’s a rare quiet morning in our house – Tuck is sleeping in? Wesley has already been up and is down for his first nap, I thought I’d share our dinner last night. We had my mother in law’s birthday dinner here yesterday. I love that we use the formal dining room so much, […]
my compassionate two year old
The other day we were at the bounce house (it’s so hot, and you have to get out all that energy somewhere. I’ve even resorted to chuck-e-cheese lately) and Tuck saw a little girl crying in the corner. He sat next to her, put his arm around her and told her it was okay. The […]
Magic Kingdom with a Two year old
We had a week at disney! It was so much fun watching him there. Aside from the 24 hour bug where Tuck threw up on me, himself, and into my diaper bag. I called a teledoctor two times, and brought him into a clinic. Gosh that was a day… But he was quickly back to […]
a breastfeeding story // second time around
{photo by jessica lorren} Nursing the first time around hurt like hell. After a long traumatizing birth, it was the last thing I wanted to work on right away. I think it can be especially hard that first time around, even if you had no tongue or latch issues, because you are learning so much […]

Mother’s Day picks
I would be so lucky if I just turned into my mother, even just a little bit, I’ll take what I can get. She is the worlds most beautiful human – in all ways. Her birthday falls usually a day before or after, and sometimes on Mother’s Day. God gave her an appropriate birthday. I […]
Wesley James: a birth story
Water was broken, bags were packed, off to the hospital! Wesley was due on April 9th. That day we had spent the morning with my mom, and then I headed to my doctors appointment while she watched Tuck. I picked up my number one pregnancy craving (a blueberry kale salad) on the way to the […]
You’re a gem of a teacher // free printable
I LOVE tucks teachers! They have done so much in five months. He just goes twice a week, but it’s incredible to see the progress. He wakes up each school day ready to go and excited. It’s an amazing environment for him and I couldn’t be more happy with all they’ve done. A few weeks […]
Mother’s Day Weekend
{and some iphone snaps…} I hope you all had a great Mother’s Day weekend! Last year Tuck was hit by the stomach bug and I started that Mother’s Day being thrown up on… but what’s more of true “motherhood” than that! Thankfully everyone was feeling good this year. We had a date night on Friday, […]
Joovy Scooter x2 review
We are big joovy fans around here! We’ve bought and loved the spoon walker (the best looking walker out there), the caboose (see it in action in Rome), wesley’s bike helmet , and the trycoo (wes loves getting pushed in this around the neighborhood). So I was excited when Joovy sent us the Scooter x2 to review. Tuck liked the […]
