I hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend! My family is really loving the time off now that Sloane Kennedy Paglinco is finally here. She arrived on Friday morning. The poor girls were in labor for a whopping 36 hours! Thankfully both Mama and Sloane are doing fantastic. Annabelle is acting like she just received the best gift in her entire life and thinks Sloane is her very own baby. It's so funny to watch them together because Sloane just sleeps and Annabelle kisses her ... View the Post

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

one. floral favorites. I'm loving the floral patterns this season everywhere - floral skirts, floral shirts, floral dresses and more. I want them ALL. This dress is a similar style to my dress above except its much lighter for the summer. two. sister sister. My mom bought the girls the cutest little outfits from Janie and Jack for the summer. One of my favorite ensembles are the green dot shorts and flower polo. Annabelle and Ailey looked like they were ready for the golf course with ... 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
