Car Seat Safety and What Brands We Love and Trust
After #momlife-ing hard for the last seven years, I can say that one of the topics I’ve learned the most about is car seats. What brands aren’t great and what brands are. Where to place them in a vehicle and even the chest clip levels. I can easily say that this is a topic that brings out my mama bear and I always want to advocate for our children in this area. So many people (including myself) have gone wrong in this area and I want to share things that I’ve learned along the way to make it easier. When Nolan was born I was really uneducated about car seats…

Lemonade Stand Anyone?
This post is in partner with Wedderspoon Honey. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. My children are loving the idea of staying as busy as possible for Summer break. I mean, every day they have a new game plan for what we are going to do or plan for the upcoming weekend. One of the things they have wanted to do for quite sometime is have a lemonade stand in our front yard. We’ve been so busy that it never worked out for us to do that until last weekend and ya’ll, it was a blast! I actually gave them a…

Lord Have Mercy!
Here we are, 11 months into Mercy’s life. Man, the time really does fly! She is growing by leaps and bounds every day. She has brought so much joy into our lives since she joined us Earth side. As I come to terms with the fact that I’ve got an almost toddler on my hands, I realize that it’s been a hot minute since I’ve shared our favorite products for baby. The more kids I’ve added into the mix, the less “stuff” I add into the mix. Baby things pile up quickly and I’ve found out that a lot of it just takes up space and really isn’t necessary. Mercy…

The Forever Gift of Silhouettes
Happy Wednesday friends! Today is a very special post for me because I get to share a gift that I was given that means THE MOST to me. I was approached by a local artist in Florence, SC for the opportunity to work together. As you know, I LOVE to shop local and also support my fellow mama friends. Morgan Atkinson makes the most beautiful silhouette jewelry and portraits and it has been a long time goal of mine to have the children’s silhouettes painted for our home. Since we moved into our new house, finding decor to create our little space has been at the forefront of my mind.…

What I’ve Learned About Potty Training
Happy Tuesday ya’ll! This week is jam packed with all the things and with this new season of my life I find that if I do not write things down, set alarms and give myself all the grace then I just can’t survive. One of the things we are hyper focused on is potty training with Scarlet Reese. This has been an interesting journey to say the least. When we lived in Lake View over a year ago, I would try and get her to sit on her little potty and try but she had NO interest. We even went so far as to buy her Peppa Pig (her favorite)…
