    Life With Three Kids

    Being a mom isn’t all butterflies and rainbows. It’s hard. Especially when you don’t have a family that helps and gives you a break every now and then.

The interior of the building is stunning and I want every single item of clothing, shoes, and jewelry! I am trying really hard not to over crowd my closet and focus on finding pieces that style easily with other options in my wardrobe.

Last weekend I made banana nut bread for the first time, FROM SCRATCH, and not only was it was easier than I thought it would be, it was so delicious!

See, in the South, we don’t grow up eating “healthy” so all the banana nut bread recipes I had from my…
