Five Things

After reading Liz‘s Five things, I thought I’d join in too. via jessica lorren organic photography Five things about Moi.  {1} I have come to love imperfection.  Things that feel or look too shiny/perfect feel like a big charade to me now.  In design, in dressing and just in life in general.  This has helped […]

sweet little weekend

in his urban baby bonnet the doc told us to stay in for two months due to the flu.   you didn’t have to ask me twice! I’ve loved our weekends at home, filled with snuggles.  and more snuggles.  we ventured out a bit this weekend though… to lunch and babiesRus.   JB mentioned how […]

Five years

my life as a working mama // the dream i’m working on

I am thankful to do work that I love.  Grateful for the couples I get to know through the process of planning their weddings.  One thing I’m glad I’m not is short sided.  When I started this journey a little over a year ago, I’m sure it looked asinine to many.  But I started this […]

Tuck at Two Months // Survival Guide

  1.  The swaddle me blankets aren’t quite cutting it anymore.  Boyfriend is growing.  These muslin swaddle blankets are the best.  They’re pricey but truly a couple notches above the rest. 2.  Whale Tub.  Tuck loves his bath.  Just like somebody we know …. (:  I love the way it supports his neck and lets […]

March 6th, 2012

Last year, I wrote this post about my surgeries. About Gods unfailing love and compassion.  That His plans are the absolute best ones.   at all times. I wrote that in the morning on the 5th of March, 2012.  The next day I miscarried our first child.  And I didn’t get out of bed.  couldn’t.  […]

Onto Mexico … with a baby!

We are headed to Mexico at the end of the month!   It’s one of two big trips we’ll take this year courtesy of JB’s company {+ him working his tail off}. I’m a little uneasy about flying with an almost three month old, but we’re doin it!   Once we’re there I’m not sure I will […]

the first seven weeks

  {via SS print shop} Tucks First Seven Weeks from sarah tucker on Vimeo.  time seems to be moving at a pace I am not familiar with.  I’d stop time dead in its tracks if I could.  every single day he gets more aware, increasingly curious of the world around him.  and cuter too, though […]

Tuck Grins

February.  Oy Vey! you’ve been one crazy month. I fell down stairs (among my greatest fears // won’t even attempt the spanish steps) and messed up my tailbone.  ouch! JB was out of town for work on Valentine’s Day.  Corporate America ain’t got time for that. JB turned 31.  And i usually celebrate his birth […]

post partum style

oh the post partum body.  i was so curious about how my body would change.  curious/freaked out.  I didn’t think much of it until a week or so before he was born though.  then it was all, let me mourn the loss of my youth.  ha.  a little too late for a freak out.  And […]

heartbreaker

Talking to your baby isn’t quite like talking to yourself, right?  Right??? I mean he can’t really talk back.  So does that make me crazy?  I’m not sure. I’ve been doing this weird thing talking to him already about girls. The worst is when we watch the Bachelor.  I’m all… see that girl!  No.  Don’t […]

Happy One Month Tuck!

{fish made by Pam, onesie, and bowtie from my BFF ashie!} Happy One Month Little Man! I used to look at my parents and not completely understand how they felt toward us.

a few thoughts on motherhood, three weeks into the field.

{booties and hat handmade by shannon reeve‘s momma!} Motherhood.  He’s ours.  This perfect tiny gift from above.  I’m taken aback by that fact all of the time now.  I check to make sure he is breathing.  far too much.  I try to replace worry with my prayers for him.  I have so many prayers and the […]

2012 through instagrams + favorite posts
