Here it goes… I am summing up the past year with our Benson Jude. I already have tears in my eyes. Here we go. Our Benny was born in the middle of a pandemic. I was nervous about having postpartum anxiety for the second time. Throw in opening day of baseball one day…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TATUM
Our baby turns one tomorrow. I am so emotional (in the best way possible). This blog post is dedicated to our sweet, hilarious, animated, strong willed and busy babe Tatum. I am currently sipping a glass of Chateau Montelana Chardonnay in bed. Tucker is with the guys working on a fantasy football…
First Year Favorites
I cannot believe Tatum is almost a year old!! When I found out I was pregnant in 2016 I googled all of the “must haves for baby” and as time passed I found myself looking at the “best sellers” section on BuyBuy Baby and hoping the items were a success in our household. This blog…

I said six months was my favorite age but each month since has brought even more joy. I can’t really believe Tatum made his grand entrance 9 months ago!!! I have a few friends who are pregnant or who have recently had babes and it makes me SO excited for them. We will share a bond…

I could shout it from the rooftop. It is a wonderful feeling. 2 weeks ago I posted my struggle of breastfeeding/pumping…
Lately
This blog post won’t be the easiest to type but the reason I started this blog was to look back on the good, bad, happy, sad, crazy, dull and everything in between moments. This post will be one that I hope I can look back on in a few months and know that I made the right…
No book can prepare you for this mama thing.
This offseason was one for the books. Literally, I read skimmed so many books. Not like… for funsies books. Books that were supposed to teach me what the hell to do about feeding a baby around the clock, how to get a baby to sleep, how to make a baby stay asleep so it fit in line with…
