Here are some of my favorite finds from the week: Favorite Shopping Method (potentially): So, being a Prime member, […] Read more…
I’ve always admired those who are able to fit a workout into their daily routine. I’ve made the attempt several times, but have been more of a once or twice a week on and off kind of gal. Since sweet baby came along (and completely rearranged my body), I became adamant about making […] Read more…

There were tons of recipes […] Read more…
It’s the first weekend of spring! Time for grilling out, picnics at the vineyard, and walks in the park with baby. Cue the rain in Nashville. Oh well, maybe it’s a good chance to get started on spring cleaning. Here are some of my favorite finds from the week. Favorite Scent: One of my favorite essential […] Read more…
Flu season was never something that I was too concerned about. We would try our best to not get sick obviously, but it wasn’t a daunting task.
