Tassels and Olive Green
sweater | shorts | boots | sunglasses* I am asked often about my relationship with Derrek. Our relationship means so much to me, it’s really fun to talk about. I am not saying that we have a perfect relationship by any means but we love each other more than anything. I think that’s why it is so perfect to us. Derrek and I have been together for seven years but it still feels just like we’re dating. How on Earth do we make this possible with four kids involved? Simple. Dating. I work really hard to respect my husband and part of that includes making time for just him. I…

Snack Life Thanks to G.H. Cretors Popcorn
This post is sponsored by G.H. Cretors. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. One thing that I’ve come to learn about myself is that I love a good snack. Not only is that something that I’ve learned I can’t live without but my children are always asking for snacks as well. It’s become a rule that I never leave the house without something to munch on because myself or the kids will want something to eat at some point during the time we are out and about. Finding something that the entire family will enjoy has proven to be more difficult…

High Performing SAFE Makeup
One of the main objections I’ve heard when chatting with women about switching to safer makeup is that the performance isn’t up to pair with what they are currently using. This always interests me because some women truly care about that over safety and two because I have found the holy grail of high performing AND non toxic makeup. Beautycounter is changing the beauty industry by bridging the gap between performance and safety and EVERYONE is digging the results. Even VOGUE is taking notice! “When Minnie Mortimer dropped by the Vogue offices the other day, we couldn’t help but notice her supernaturally healthy glow. Her secret: Beautycounter, the new line…

This one has been filled with so many errands that the weekend can’t get here soon enough.

I don’t want to share to much about what’s happening right now but soon I will! Until then, just know that I am running errands and making appointments every day now which is…

Sweet Sugar Thanks to Playtex
Oh man, I cannot believe that my sweet Mercy girl is 14 weeks old now! She is growing by leaps and bounds and everyday she does something new. I am exclusively breastfeeding her but I try really hard to not let her fall asleep while nursing. I don’t want her to become dependent on falling asleep ONLY with me verses if Derrek is home and trying to get her to sleep. For some reason, Nolan and Harper never took a pacifier and I think it’s because I let them fall asleep nursing every single time. Scarlet Reese was the only child other than Mercy…
