1st Birthday with My Favorite Shop

I received product in exchange for a post, but my love for Baby Cubby and shopping enjoyment extended long before this agreement! I’m still in shock that a 1st birthday took place in our home in the last month. How did that year evaporate so quickly? I used to hear moms say that and kind… Read More

My Favorite Guy’s Birthday

As I’m prepping to share the big 1st Birthday event we had for Mack on Monday, I’m sitting here with a tinge of guilt that I never shared a big post about my very favorite guy’s birthday. My boys are only a week apart, and so far the birth of a child and first birthday… Read More

Happy 1st Birthday Miracle Baby!

The other night as we were prepping for birthday celebrations we talked about a phrase Jacob said during one of our lowest moments of a failed infertility treatment. I cried quite a bit that month and felt pretty hopeless and asked Jacob, “Do you think we’re just not meant to be parents? What if we’re… Read More

Holiday Party

We did something crazy this weekend, we left the baby with a babysitter for the first time for our first date solo as parents.

Halloween 2015: Emperor’s New Groove Costumes

When Halloween hits one month postpartum it can be a bit rough! I was ready to forgo our normal creativity and just skip out on our favorite holiday party like a Scrooge. We had more drama this year than you could imagine! I was seriously barely even showering at this point postpartum, and pulling together… Read More

Jacob’s Birthday as a New Dad

I’m not going to lie, when everyone tells you having a kid changes everything, they are 100% right! Jacob and I had many conversations about how we would still date, how we would keep love alive, and what our concerns for our relationship were throughout the pregnancy. I’m glad we were proactive in making plans,… Read More

Welcome to the World Baby Shower

If you’re really lucky in life, God blesses you with some amazing friends and family. I think having a baby shower is a moment in my life I almost choke up every time I think about. There are few times you feel so loved and so supported! My sisters were kind enough to throw me… Read More

Holiday Parties 2014

We’re mixing it up around these parts and trying to start taking more video of dates. Consequently, last week’s date is taking a little more time to get together, and we’ll post it soon, but not a week later like I normally do! I knew I had a date from December I missed, so I… Read More

Decorating a Glamorous New Year’s Eve Party on a Budget

Yesterday I posted all about our New Year’s Eve mocktail party and wanted to share a little about decorating on the cheap when you’re trying to throw a glamorous party. First thing’s first, a photo booth is a must! I’ve put on enough Arizona Blogger Meetups in my life to know that this can get… Read More

Annual Couple’s Halloween Party 2014: Marty McFly and Doc Costume
