I just might be sentimental to a fault, but it’s just part of who I am. I love to document everything, keep items that are meaningful, and do so in the most organized way possible. Compulsive organizing might be a fault of mine too. I may need to see a therapist. Looking back over Cypress’ first year of life, I’m SO glad I took the time each week to take her picture in the same spot. It’s so ... [ Read More ]
The twins are 4!
We’ve had a whirlwind couple of weeks, and I have sooooo many pictures to go through (and corresponding blog posts to write)...but today? It’s important to share that: THE TWINS TURNED 4! Like, they had a birthday. And now they’re 4. And I’m a mother to four-year-olds. And soon they’ll be asking to wear deodorant. And then they’ll move out and I’m ugly-crying right now. Among a few other ... [ Read More ]
The sibling connection
Having twins, we had a unique parenting perspective of having siblings from the very beginning. Sibling love is probably one of the cutest things everrrr. But throwing a new baby in the mix is always a big question mark. Will they love her? Will there be jealousy issues? Will 3 be a crowd? Well, we have the next 17.5 years to figure all that out. But I’m happy to report that... so far so ... [ Read More ]
Confessions, twins, and a 35 week baby bump
I have a confession… I can’t handle clutter. It makes me crazy. Like I literally feel like I’m losing it. I’m constantly tidying up as I go about my day. I don’t leave a room without grabbing something that’s out of place to take it to it’s rightful home. I didn’t realize how out-of-control it was until I started slowing down in my 3rd trimester. I just can’t keep up. We’ve all seen this ... [ Read More ]
Snow Bunnies
Winter can be rough when you have toddlers to entertain and you’re limited to indoor activities. We’re not big TV people, so we try to encourage imaginative or educational play. Luckily, there are TWO of them, so they do pretty well with entertaining each other. #butnotalways Big mama isn’t very active these days, as I near my 9th month. And the girls seem to understand. We employ a lot of these ... [ Read More ]
Our kind of Christmas
As a creative-type designer-ish blogger, I’ve been known to move junk out of the background before I take a picture. I do this so you won’t be distracted by my cat litter instead of what I’m trying to convey. It’s really not that I’m trying to be deceitful or make you think that we keep a perfectly clean house (I wrote a whole post on this topic here). BUT, there are certain things I just won’t ...

3-Year Pics of the Girls {Molly Long}
Soooooo, it’s no secret that we LOVE Molly Long Photography. Molly and I have actually become friends over the years following that first newborn photo shoot, and I look forward to her doing her magic each summer! I’m still obsessed with this family pic she took of us last summer. UGH! This year, we just had her take pics of the girls… because I’m feeling less than photogenic these days. No ... [ Read More ]
The big transition from crib to toddler bed
It’s hard to believe it’s been a full year since we started fixing up the girls’ toddler room. We wanted the room to be ready for them on that dreaded night when they escaped the confines of their crib. We finished the room this past spring, and I can confidently say that this is my favorite room in the house. By far. Bedtime has always been a dream for us. We’re very lucky to have good ...

Preschool? REALLY?
I used to be one of those people that rolled my eyes at ALLLLLL the pictures parents posted of their kids on the first day of school. A good week to take a break from Facebook if you ask me… because you’re missing nothing. Well today I’m eating my words, because the girls started PRESCHOOL this morning. As you can see 50% of my small litter of children are stoked. The other 50% is whining about ... [ Read More ]
Pregnancy / Life Update
Mornin’ friends! And Happy Friday to you! I’m just stopping in to share a little life update… Are ya ready? I’M SICK. I’m not complaining by any means, but I felt that my loyal readers deserved to know why I’ve been MIA here on the blog. I’m not going to go into any details, but let’s just say I feel icky and nothing is getting done around the house. I actually don’t mind the reminder of the ... [ Read More ]
