Back in the saddle…

After an eventful year, I am back in the saddle to chronicle life around here! When we left off about a year ago, we were about to wrap up GI fellowship training, about to move, about to start building our house at the ranch, and about to start living… So, here we are a year…… Continue reading Back in the saddle…

Weekend Rewind- 7.8.19

Happy Monday, friends! I’m trying to get in a better habit of writing more often and doing a better job of using this space to preserve memories of this current season, so I thought I’d start with recapping our long holiday weekend!

Happy Wednesday, y’all! Here’s a little life update with What’s Up Wednesday with Shay and Sheaffer! What We’re Eating… Y’all.

The Highlight Reel

Last Friday was kind of a day for us. Not anything terrible, just typical life with a baby. She was a little clingy, and it seemed like every time I tried to put her down, she would cry. Not just wimper, but full out rail until I picked her up again. For the most part,…… Continue reading The Highlight Reel

Just Hang On a Minute

I just about lost it in the pharmacy drive through the other day. I mean, not really, but it was one of those mom moments where you just feel so frazzled because you’re not able to solve the problem at hand. Olivia was in the back seat in her car seat screaming.

It’s Okay to Be Called Pretty

I read an article a few months ago called “13 Things You Wish People Would Say to Your Daughter Instead of “Aren’t You Pretty?”. This was sometime after we had found out that we were in fact expecting a little girl, and this caught my attention as another thing I was supposed to worry about…… Continue reading It’s Okay to Be Called Pretty
