Flashback Friday
Just home from the hospital, and making himself right at home!
I plan to spend my weekend snuggled up with this little guy. The weekends are for the best parts of my day, lasting all day long.
Enjoy yours!

Fall Fashion
This weekend we will be entering my favorite month of the entire year, October!!! It is not only my favorite month, but it also means that my favorite season is here….FALL!!!
Pumpkins, Spiced Lattes, Boots, Scarves, Football, Sweaters, Layers, and lots of snuggle time with my two main men!
Brad and I always try to find unique and stylish clothes for Dyce to wear. This is much easier said...

Keepin' It Real
If you want things sugar coated, I am not your girl. I have never been one to be easily embarrassed or hold back when it comes to telling you how it is….and this post is no exception. So, if you don’t want to know some slightly personal things about me then I encourage you to go ahead and move on. Perhaps my next post will be better suited for you.
If you are an expecting mom or you...

Flashback Friday....Sweet and Salty
I hope everyone had a great week!
In honor of my plans this weekend (Glow Party Saturday night at The Breakfast Club!), I thought I would share with you a slightly salty photo…
We had an 80’s themed party for Claire and Brandon’s birthdays. I was about 8 months pregnant and yes, we went to the Breakfast Club like this.
One guy commented on how funny our outfits were and how...

42.
i received an email from babycenter that was titled, 42 things that change with a baby. i decided to skim this list and would like to share with you a few that jumped out at me…
Where you once believed you were fearless, you now find yourself afraid.
You respect your body … finally.
You respect your parents and love them in a new way.
You find that your baby’s pain feels...

Dyce, please don't hate me, but....
Your dad and I have decided one of these pictures (possibly both) MUST go in your high school yearbook!
I love you,
Mom.
p.s. For anyone curious about Dyce’s helmet, stay tuned for a future post.

A Weekend of Firsts
This weekend I took Dyce to his first s.o.stereo. concert at the NC Music Factory for the Live Out Loud! concert. Live Out Loud! was a benefit concert with a majority of the proceeds going to The Free Store and Samaritan’s Feet. It was a little chilly, so we got to break out the boots and Dyce’s new pea coat and skinny jeans! (Sorry in advance…this post is a little image heavy!)

WatchSince I started this blog a little late and was not able to share with you my pregnancy or birthing experience, I have decided to feature a post every Friday called Flashback Friday!
I came across this video the other day….this is what happens when my husband is given the video camera and left alone with a 2 day old Dyce!

An Angel With A Heartbeat...
Late last week I told you about a dear friend of mine who had suffered a miscarriage in THIS post. She had been told by her doctor that they were “100% certain” that she had suffered a miscarriage and they asked her to come in for an ultrasound yesterday to determine what steps to take next.
We have prayed, and prayed, and prayed that God’s will be carried out and that my...

Preparing for Baby Girl Lockett
Some dear friends of ours, Clay and Christine Lockett (or as we refer to them, “The Clocketts”), are expecting their first baby….a little girl due the beginning of October!
I hosted a shower for Christine this past Saturday at Pewter Rose in Charlotte. This was not a traditional baby shower, in that guests were asked to bring a photo of themselves with Christine in lieu of...

An Angel Gets Its Wings
“An angel in the book of life wrote down my baby’s birth. Then whispered as she closed the book “too beautiful for earth”. ~author unknown
My heart is heavy today. A dear friend of mine suffered a miscarriage. I want to wrap my arms around her and tell her this was in God’s will, but I know she already knows.
Dear sweet baby,
You were already so loved, and...

Why Now?
I guess I am a little late in the game. Usually these blogs are created to track and share in the journey from pregnancy to birth, and beyond. To be honest it took me a long time to decide if I even wanted, or had the time, to blog. More than that, I was not sure that I wanted to put myself and my family on such public display. The more I contemplated, the more attractive this all became....
