Lately I have had lots of family and friends to ask me what to get JJ for Christmas! I will definitely appreciate anything given to me or my son for Christmas because it shows that people care about us, but I would like to share a small list of gift ideas of things that JJ […]
The past couple weeks have been chaotic to say the least. I have wanted to write a blog, but I have had so much going on. From Thanksgiving gatherings to trying to keep up with JJ’s ever changing routines and milestones, I have definitely been on my toes! The past couple weeks have been full […]
A couple of years ago, I used to work at least 40 hours a week at a fast food restaurant. I would work from 10:00am until 9:00pm (open to close). My break would usually be around 2:00pm, and I would get an hour. I remember how ready I would be to clock out for that […]
Lately my boyfriend and I have been talking about traveling and finding fun activities to do as a family. Talking about fun places to go reminded me of when we went to Virginia last year (when I was nine weeks pregnant) with some friends to go biking on the Virginia Creeper Trail. That was the […]
Do you remember when you were in grade school and you had that one person (or group of friends) that you did everything with? I remember going out to the mall, watching movie/show marathons, and pulling all nighters with my best friends. Those were the days! When you become an adult, friendships like that tend […]

I think home is anywhere where you feel completely safe, happy, and at peace. Also, home is where you should feel the most comfortable being yourself. For my whole life (up until […]
Last month (October 19, 2019), JJ turned six months old, and for the past few weeks, I have been kept on my toes! If JJ is not sleeping, he is on the move! From rolling, to crawling (only backwards), sitting up, and just getting into everything, he is a handful. I have absolutely loved watching […]
Since my little man just turned 6 months old, I’ve been thinking about how much he’s grown in such a short period of time. I’ve thought about my delivery and hospital stay. Then I started thinking about the first week we brought little man home. It honestly feels like a lifetime ago, but it’s only […]
This past Saturday my little man just turned 6 months old! This morning we had to get his shots. Shot days are always a pain. I don’t mind the extra cuddles from JJ, but the doctor visit and the tears puts a little damper on the day. So instead of writing something doom and gloom, […]
