  • Everyday Life (or not so) – Moving

    So we have finally made the move! We are now in the new house, slowly getting unpacked and settled in. I love our new life, house and being a full time stay at home mom now. I promise to post more as we get the house more settled. Every second is filled with unpacking boxes…

  • Landon’s Room

     When Landon moved into his big boy room I had a great time doing a custom hand painting of his room to be the “vroom vroom” room. He loved it, I loved it and honestly it is the hardest thing I am having to get over leaving when we move. I know that  I can…

  • 2 Year old Stripper

    We walked into preschool the other morning; their routine is to take their shoes off and put them in the shoe holder and go into class.
