    The Perfect, Perfect Bar!

    This blog is in partner with the Perfect Bar. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. This season of my life, I find myself spending most of my time focused on the kids. I do try and make time for me but that time is normally not during breakfast, lunch or dinner. Meals are always the last thing on my brain during the day. By the time I get the kids settled with food, Mercy is hungry and is ready to nurse. I know that I have to take care of myself so I am focused on finding healthy options that are…

    Date Night Look Via SoLace

    top | shorts | heels | necklace | sunnies – use code: AMANDAS25 for $25 off | wallet/clutch I get SO many questions about this particular subject. Date night. How do you do it with FOUR kids? Well guys, it’s like scheduling a trip to outer space! haha. But really, it can be really difficult to find the time to focus on my hubby with our littles constantly needing me. I am so thankful for a few reliable people that help Derrek and I have one on one time once or twice a week. We never leave everyone for several hours… maybe one or two. It’s the perfect amount of…

I know it’s because how wild Scarlet Reese is but once Mercy gets a…

    Babywearing Gives Me LIFE

    Hey ya’ll! I hope your Tuesday is going great. This week has started off really crazy and there is probably not a chance it will go back to normal. I swear, Mercy spoiled me with sleeping through the night. The past two nights (early morning) she has woken up and been awake for about an hour and a half. It’s been in the 3:30am time so I am a zombie by the time 7am comes around. I think that’s when I am in my deepest sleep so that’s why I am so tired by the time we actually get up and start the day. She isn’t crying when she wakes…
