Add a Little Zest to Your Life
Motherhood Tip #456: When life hands you lemons, use the opportunity to add a little zest to your life. I knew if I posted about Ailey's new sleep schedule I would be kicking myself in the butt for jinxing her progress. But I told the world yesterday how she has been sleeping through the night and she caught wind of my bragging. Last night was tough - filled with inconsolable screaming and hourly wake-ups. I woke up exhausted, but seeing her cheery disposition reminded me Ailey just had to ... View the Post
Weekend Recap
We're back! Our Ohio Family Weekend was SO so much fun. It has been two years since we've been out to visit Brandon's Mom's side of the family and I couldn't believe how much the kids have grown up. They were over the moon about Annabelle and Ailey, so much that I barely saw Annabelle as she was playing with her cousins nonstop. The oldest girls, H and A, were in our wedding in 2009 as the flower girls and the youngest was just a little baby. It is so crazy that they are now in high school! ... View the Post

The Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) rating system measures the UV protection provided by ... View the Post

Hello from the Houstons in Destin
Sorry for the hiatus from blogging, but we are down in Florida for a long weekend together! Annabelle had her dance recital Thursday night and Friday a.m. we were up early on the road to Sandestin. My Mom is here with us (thank GOSH!) and it's so fun being back in Sandestin with Ailey in tow and not in my belly. Ailey's protective sun and swim suit is from UV Skinz - it's a MUST HAVE for babies at the beach! A regular old beach babe - this girl has NO fear of the sand or surf this ... View the Post
Happy Memorial Day!
I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend! We have been busy doing stuff around the house since our trip to Tennessee was cancelled after the small tornado in Brandon's hometown took out his parent's power. No one was injured but there are trees down everywhere! Don't forget to teach your little ones about the importance of Memorial Day today. It's not just a long weekend - I found myself explaining to Annabelle why Daddy was home today and feel like she sort of understands the ... View the Post
A Beautiful Sign
There are times when I don't feel like blogging. Whether its the chaos of motherhood wearing me down - or the desire to focus on a current event, there is always a reason. This week I've had trouble finding words to describe a funk I'm in. Between the hectic arrival of my parents last week after they missed their initial flight to Georgia, my Dad's sudden desire to go home to prepare the house for the big Blizzard, and the passing of my husband's sweet Mawmaw, I'm feeling drained. Even though ... View the Post
