Pops of Color- Spring is here
|| Dress: Lila Rose Boutique ||Statement Necklace: Sweet Tea Jewels || Shoes: Jack Rogers || Bangles: Sweet Tea Jewels || 20% off Sweet Tea Jewels code: LITTLESOUTHERNLIFE Here in South Carolina, we are enjoying spring weather, and I have fully embraced the bright side of this season this year to say the least. My three must-haves during spring have been bright lips, floral prints, and statement necklaces. I am wearing any of the above at any given moment during the week.

I think the adults at Harper’s smash cake photoshoot enjoyed her cake more than…

Real men wear babies.
I admire the type of dad who understands how important being a FATHER is. The dads who take on their roles without holding back. The dads who spend their extra time with their kids, change countless diapers without complaint, engage in endless tickle fights, and walk around the house at night until the baby is asleep. My husband is my superhero. I have never seen a man take on as much time with his kids as Derrek. When I had Nolan, I didn’t change his diapers until two days after he was born when we got home from the hospital because Derrek had that area covered. He never asks me…
