This is totally cliché, but I can't believe five weeks have already gone by since Lincoln was born. Between spending five days in the hospital and the first few (crazy) weeks at home, it seems to have gone by in an instant. Everyone who told me that boys love their mamas wasn't kidding. Lincoln loves to be held and snuggled and prefers sleeping ...

Our Weekend…
It has been a difficult past couple of weeks. There have been good days and bad days and days where I feel like a failure in every area of life. Not a great way to start an "our weekend" post, but that's our reality right now. Reading posts like this one definitely help. Harper has been adjusting so well as a big sister. She really loves Lincoln ...

Our Weekend…
Has it really been four weeks since Lincoln was born? Spending five days in the hospital and having the days blend into one another for the past couple of weeks have made this time feel like it flew by in an instant. We had a super laid-back weekend.

Recent (Target) Purchases
Dear Target: Please stop making so much cute holiday decor. I literally can't stop myself from buying Christmas stuff to add to our growing collection each year because it seems to get better and better. Their Brights Collection is totally on point this year. I saw this on Facebook the other day and I'll let you guess which one I am: I'll give ...
Our Weekend + Halloween!
I guess having a newborn makes you exhausted enough to sleep through even the most intense storms, because Friday night I squeezed in every bit of shut-eye I could between feedings, all while a massive storm passed through our city. Our street flooded twice Saturday, but thankfully both times the water receded. It was all the way up to nearly the ...
Lincoln Grey: Newborn Photos
A couple of months before Lincoln was born, I contacted Ailee from Snapshots by Ailee Petrovic to book her for our newborn and family photos (you can also check out her blog, here). A lot of my friends have used her for photos and I absolutely love her work and how bright, crisp and clean her images are. Lincoln was awake for most of our session ...
