Jett Oliver: 7 months

Jett Oliver, oh my goodness we love you so. The last month you have become such a busy body.. always touching, grabbing, and studying everything around you. Gone are the days where we could read you a story and you just watch in wonderment at the colors of the pages - now you have to grab it..feel it, pull it toward you.

All about: blogging, being a "social influencer" and that new Instagram Algorithm

I debated on whether to write about my thoughts on the subject but you know what? This is my space to do with it what I want, and my thoughts on social media and what that means for me, a "blogger" (as well as ALL bloggers out there-especially us little guys, trying to make it in a sea of established, full-time, veteran bloggers) have been eating at me for awhile now, and I always find the best way to organize my thoughts to make sense of them is to write them down.

Mules for Spring

Happy Monday all, I know Monday's get a bad rap, but honestly, since I am such a fan of routine, its always nice to get back into it after a weekend of just going with the flow! Brandon just got back in town last night and Jett and I are just sooo happy to have him home!

My Valentine

"Well I'll be your rainy day lover. Whenever the sunny days end.
And whatever the weather, we have each other.
And that's how the story will end

Well I'll be your shade tree in summer mmm.
If you'll be my fire when it's cold.
And whatever the season, well, we'll keep on breathing.
Cause we'll have each other to hold.

What I've Learned from a Year of Blogging

It occurred to me this morning that its been about a year (ish) since I started blogging (well.. I guess you could say for the 2nd time - I had a brief stint in the summer of 2014). Over the past year a LOT has happened. I got pregnant.. had a baby... and now adjusting to life as a new mom. I am thankful every day when I log into my blog account for all the memories it holds within its little virtual walls.
