I am still working on typing out Felix’s birth story, but I’ve finished editing his newborn photos and I can’t handle how much I love them! Felix’s first week of life was spent mostly trying to figure out how to help him eat. He ended up having a lip and tongue tie that made nursing […]
After our miscarriage in August of 2020, I wanted to get pregnant again so badly. It was the main thought that consumed me. I imagined that getting pregnant again would take away the horrible ache and pain I was feeling and I thought I wanted that pain gone more than anything. A few months passed […]
INTRODUCTION AND MY WHY Well helloooooo. It’s been a hot second (or a casual five months) since I’ve been around Instagram or any social media for that matter… it has honestly been a super needed break and I don’t know if or when I will rejoin the gram. A quick intro for those of you […]

As we await winter placements, putting together our nursery has been a work in progress. We have been so blessed by people who have offered resources, given generous and thoughtful gifts, and even searched out and delivered a dresser to us! I thought it would be fun to show a little preview of everything all […]
Mother’s Day family photos are one of our oldest traditions. This year, however, we waited a few weeks and opted for photos on my mom’s birthday so that we could have photos with all six of her children together! As we have gotten older, it has been harder to get the whole group together but […]
