Tuck Says / Spam
Tuck is at such a fun age. They are all fun in their own ways but this one seems to be super hilarious to me. Though we are not without our challenges. Our current challenge with Tuck is having to carry him out of the park/party/the bounce house/soccer class, fighting mad because he never wants […]
Bachelorette Goodie Bag
My super thoughtful sister is away in Charleston this weekend celebrating her lifelong best friends bachelorette! These bags she put together, as the maid of honor, are just the cutest. I had to take some photos of it in case anyone needs ideas (: Most of the treats were purchased at Target. […]
wannabe green thumb: our fiddle leaf fig trees
Most of the time when I post a photo of our home I usually get questions about our fiddle leaf fig trees. Is it real? yes. how do you keep them alive? In short, I mostly ignore them. But here’s the long version … For the little one… that came from Ikea. We were […]

Beautiful Naples, Florida
Down in Naples for one of JB’s meetings for his work (you can see past ones: (here (amelia island) / here (st. pete) / here (key largo)). Two year old Tuck is in his prime at these things. He makes fast friends and that pretty much includes any kid who looks his way. He danced every night away, […]
{tucks swim romper // my rash guard c/o – 20% off with PROTECT20 // sunnies // sunglass chain} Friday night / Saturday early morning I had been up every hour due to Wesley catching tucks cold. Even once he would go to sleep I had a hard time sleeping soundly. I know it can get […]

Honeyami blanket Tuck loves the fresh laundry right out of the dryer. My dad always used to pour it on me, and I would snuggle down. keeping that tradition (: The little giraffe bear towel is wesleys but tuck has since taken it for his own and loves to rawr around the house with it. […]
Father’s Day gift guide // JB’s favorites
The dads in my life are truly some of the kindest, most hard working, and loving ones out there. My wheels have been spinning on what to get all of them this year, and here are a few ideas // few things they are already a big fan of receiving. All of the men in […]
motherhood
{their swim trunks // tucks shirt } Motherhood is constantly taking me by surprise. Showing me layers of who I am or who I’m meant to be. For one, I would never think I was going to be the disciplinarian in the house, but I am. Maybe that’s the role you have to take on […]
When Tuck Met Wesley
{my pjs // tucks big brother scrubs monogrammed by tinebowtique} Yesterday was truly the best day of mine and JB’s life. Wesley was born at 1:10am on April 10th – a birth story I can’t wait to write about. I never thought I’d be one of those people who really loved birth (always thought of […]
no better motivation for a clean house like company!
**this is a sponsored post** Last week we were knee deep in croup, thrush, and what seems to be a sinus infection (for me and JB). The reason for the mostly radio silence since then. We also had company in from Switzerland, and thankfully I was able to clean a bit before they got […]
Born for this Box: the perfect gift for an expecting or new mother
I am a big fan of Mommy Mail Box! I get super excited when I spy it in our mailbox. I love how it has a different curator each month. The curator always picks out items intentionally. It’s a really nice and always stylish pick me up! Their limited boxes have become a […]
Baby Wearing Faves
I didn’t know baby wearing was a thing before I had kids. Isn’t it just something you do so your baby (if she or he likes it) stays calm, you can get some things done, and you can get out easily. It isn’t a dividing line! I would have loved if Tuck was into the […]
it is significant

momfessions
via As a first time mom I wondered all the time if I am doing it right. I felt really insecure. I still have moments that can sometimes turn into days where I’m pretty sure I’m doing it all wrong. The human condition? or just mine? I don’t know if it ever will be all […]
what i wish i was wearing: all white
Whenever I have a little tan going on (which is most definitely not at the moment) i’m always reaching for white. Even if it goes from clean to covered in stains in 2.2 seconds. Sadly, I can’t totally blame my kids on that one. (: {one – top – skirt // two // three // […]
Favorite Travel Experiences
When I was reading Amanda’s post (she’s moving to Croatia!!) where she asked for suggestions within Europe it got me thinking of my favorite spots. Then during nap time I went through my blogs travel page and it got me smiling, and thinking … it is sometimes about how beautiful a place is but most […]

out.back.
my favorite – fresh peppermint in piping hot water. Have been using the ergo in his infant insert lately to nurse if I need my hands free. He loves being curled up in the infant insert! I love spending our mornings and evenings in the backyard. Tuck is busy being verrrry busy – in his […]
My parents say I was a lot like content little Wes as a baby – and it tricked them into (thankfully!) going for four. Which is sorta what I hope our ending number is – four. Lord willing, of course. And who talks about another baby two weeks after having one? When you have a […]

This week has been a whirlwind, an awfully long one too. I think I thought it was Friday every day of the week. My papaw went to be with Jesus on Monday morning. And I just got back home from Georgia. Much to my surprise my doctor gave me the OK to travel up to […]
