Yesterday was sort of a “blah” day. I woke up in a bit of a funk, feeling tired and dragging my body through the motions of a typical Sunday morning. It’s always a rat race to get all five of us ready and out the door for church on time, and yesterday morning was no …

A Father’s Love
Weekends are glorious. Mostly because my handsome husband is home! Jake’s job requires quite a bit of time during the week, but Saturday and Sunday are all about quality family time.

Encouragement From A Stranger
Whenever I take the kids out and about, we’re a bit of a spectacle. People see that we have three kids under two, and they usually have some sort of typical reaction about how busy we must be. Which is totally fine. I appreciate people willing to acknowledge how crazy it is! But this week I’ve …
Small Things with Great Love
When Baylen was a newborn, I remember countless nights when Jake and I would sit on the couch and stare for hours on end at our beautiful baby boy. As we chatted about how surreal it felt to be parents, we talked about how crazy it was that this little human would start talking someday …

Silver Linings
I love being a mom. It is the greatest calling God has ever given me, and I consider it an absolute honor that He entrusts three precious little ones to Jake and me. But unfortunately there have there been moments lately when I feel like I’ve taken it a bit for granted. The stage of …

I wanted to thank everybody who joined me in the Mommy Needs to Move fitness challenge this summer, and for hanging with me despite my lack of update posts during the second half!
