    So you had a baby…

    Hey y’all! I planned on writing this during a night feeding with Mercy but she decided to sleep all night. I feel like I’ve hit the baby jackpot or maybe God just decided to give me a little break from crazy town for a bit. Either way, I am not complaining! My midwife has given Derrek and myself strict instructions that I need to stay in bed with her for a full week so, that’s what I am doing. I tend to jump right back into the swing of things after I have a baby but my body really needs the proper time to heal so I won’t miss things…

    What I’m Loving Now: Nursing Friendly Dresses + Must Have Baby Items

    dress | shoes  Another week of this pregnancy has come and gone ya’ll! Derrek and I had a conversation about not being able to believe how quickly this time has passed. It feels like I just found out I was pregnant and I cannot believe that I’m actually 37 weeks. Other than feeling all of that 37 weeks and walking with a waddle, my brain can’t wrap itself around the fact that the end is here. We traveled to Charleston yesterday to get cleared for the homebirth so since that appointment, I’ve been nesting.

    Breakfast goals thanks to Walmart

    This is a sponsored post, but all opinions are my own.  With three littles, mealtimes can be quite interesting to navigate. For this reason, I have focused on finding organic but easy to fix meals that all of my kids enjoy. My family and I, are weekly Walmart shoppers and have recently gotten into the grocery store pick up that they offer – yet another way to take away from my weekly to-do list. I love that Walmart has focused on stocking organic products, it has really helped make it easier to find food in one place for my family. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A…

    Mommy and Me Makeup For the Win

    This post is in partner with Just Like Mommy Cosmetics. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please visit my disclaimer page for more information. My kids have always been curious about my make-up and have gotten into it more times than I can count. For this reason, I’ve had to start keeping it in zipped bags in the top of my closet so no “mishaps” go down. There’s nothing worse than buying a brand new palette or lipstick and seeing it ruined at the hands of a toddler who just wanted to be like mama.
