Three years. Some days it feels like much longer. Others, it feels like we were honeymooning just yesterday. This year definitely has been the best yet. But I have a feeling I'll be saying that from here on out. I have so much that I was planning to write to you today. Then, last night when our wedding song came on, I listened. Every line of the song sunk in and brought a smile to my face. I realized that it was indeed the perfect song you chose. When we were married we didn't know what God had in store for us. We ... read more
From Mr & Mrs to Mom & Dad
{MR & MRS} The husband and I met over 10 years ago in college. He was in a fraternity and I was in a sorority. We didn't start dating dating until 2007. From there we dated for a year and a half, were engaged for a year and have been married for almost three years. We're very different people but we compliment each other. I'm a go go go kind of girl and he enjoys lounging around. I'm stubborn and he is patient with me. I fire at the hip and he is the more rational one. Of course roles reverse every once in a while but one of us usually offsets ... read more
The Perfect Moment and Mommy & Me
I feel like since AG has been born there are have been so many moments where my heart could just explode. Moments that I want to bottle up and never forget. Moments filled with so much love and pure joy. But on Saturday night there was a moment that for me (and I think D too) was hands down, one of the most special since AG's birth. Let me start by saying Saturday wasn't our day. My car was still in the shop, what was supposed to take a day is taking a week. The cleaning lady (Groupon deal) that we had coming was running an hour and a half behind which ... read more
A Letter to my Daughter
Dear Sweet Baby Girl, I've been writing this letter over and over in my head since the day you were born. I have so much to say to you, yet it's been hard to find the words. I've wanted to be a mom from as young as I cam remember. I started practicing with my baby dolls when I was a toddler and never stopped. Every job I had involved being around kids. Babysitting, children's clothing, teaching pre-school, being a nanny and of course, my career as a teacher. When people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would reply with "a mom and a teacher". ... read more

Must Read for Moms- The Mom Stays In the Picture
I had no intentions of blogging today until I cam across this article that a friend of mine shared on Facebook. It was exactly what I needed to read today and I'm sure it will be the same for some of you. All moms should read this article. Here's a little part of it... It seems logical. We're sporting mama bodies and we're not as young as we used to be. We don't always have time to blow dry our hair, apply make-up, perhaps even bathe (ducking). The kids are so much cuter than we are; better to just take their pictures, we think. But we really need to make an effort to get in the ... read more

Lots to Love
Happy Wednesday! I have to admit I'm glad this week is half way over. Monday was a LONG & exhausting day. AG decided she didn't want to take more than a 30 minute nap all day and then was super fussy. Usually she is pretty easy to soothe with a walk but it was thundering out. Then, I had a horrible experience with Poke a Dot shop which I'll be blogging about soon. I never been so heated over an online order...EVER! By 5pm I was over it. Thankfully everything was back to normal on Tuesday! I decided to link up with Jamie today to focus on everything I'm loving right ... read more
MIscellany Monday
Happy Monday! These past 10 days have been the most wonderful days of our lives. They've flown by and have been exhausting but worth every single sleepless night. I have a little bit of time while hubs is napping and AG is finishing up a 3 hour stretch of sleep, so here's a little of what's on my mind lately. Mom...my mother is hands down the most wonderful woman in the world. She spend the first week of AG's life with us. She cooked, cleaned, took AG when we needed a break, taught me how to do things, snuggled her granddaughter and overall was just a wonderful support. I'm so so ... read more
