We had to combine our office and guest room last year to make room for Connor’s nursery, so that meant squeezing a queen sized bed into the room with my pipe shelves and little desk. The desk made it just tooooo cramped so out it went (along with a getting a little makeover itself) but… Read More
This time next week we will officially have a toddler instead of an infant (insert shocked face emoji). I feel like I’m still scrambling every week to learn whatever new thing he needs or has started doing, and one area I severely underestimated was 1) when he would start to need a multitude of toys… Read More
While we are closing in on the little one’s first birthday in a few weeks (how?!?), I gotta say that the meal prep situation around here is still pretty similar to those early months. Crockpot meals, quick one-pan dishes, and anything we can make ahead and be ready the next day is still what gets… Read More
The dreaded crickets around here again, I’m so sorry guys!! The past month has flown by and this one is too so hopping on here just kept getting pushed back day by day and now all of a sudden it’s been a month since I’ve posted. While there’s definitely less time to do projects nowadays,… Read More

Happy holidays everyone! Our tree is decorated, presents abound underneath it, lights are up outside, and YOU GUYS… we even had SNOW last week!! In freaking south Texas! That hasn’t happened here since 2004 so you better believe we headed out to enjoy it for the few hours we had it. The holiday spirit… Read More
I’m typing this as our temperature outside drops to start with a “4” and it.is.awesome. It just wasn’t right to have Christmas lights up and be holiday shopping when it’s 81 degrees outside, even if it is south Texas, so now it definitely feels more like the holidays! All those Black Friday boxes are rolling… Read More
Happy holiday season!! I hope all my US friends had a great Thanksgiving weekend filled with good food, family, and tons of laziness. As much as we wanted to get a head start on our decorations this year, we are just now starting to put things up…jury is still out on how it’ll hold up… Read More
