Somehow our sweet baby Liam is now 1 and is a full-blown toddler! We had a great birthday party for him with family and friends that he loved and was on a major sugar high by the end of the afternoon! When it came time to pick a theme for his party, we instantly knew it had to be a Mickey Mouse party. Our boy is Mickey Mouse obsessed and we're Disney obsessed (we actually got engaged on Disney property!) so it just made sense! I knew I wanted super cute invitations and these that I ...
Liam’s Mickey Mouse 1st Birthday Party
LIAM 12 MONTH CHECK-IN AND BABY PRODUCT FAVORITES
I am at a loss for words as to how an entire year has gone by since Liam joined our family. He has been the greatest gift we have ever received and we don't take one single day with him for granted. While this year has been hard and, duh, exhausting, he is worth every middle of the night wake-up and then some. Tyler and I are seriously smitten with this kid and can't wait to watch him learn and grow in the years to come. New this month: Climbing. This child climbs on anything and everything. ...
Let’s Talk Tuesday #18
Since it is 9/11 I would like to take thank all of the service men and women who helped that day and everyday to protect us. #neverforget After last week's fall themed Let's Talk Tuesday post, I officially have our fall decorations up around our house. However, I must admit, after a trip to Home Good's last week I can't help but want to add a ton more to make it super cozy! I literally almost left with half the store. Two places I cannot be trusted, Home Goods and Target. ...
Investing time in your marriage after kids
Leading up to Liam being born, everyone told me how it gets hard to focus on each other and how it was important to continue to date your husband. Well duh, of course we were going to do that! We'd make time for date night at least every other week if not once a week, still go out and be social and be cool parents! Right? Wrong! We had great intentions but let's be real, life gets in the way. The newborn days are rough and while we did have our first date night 2 weeks after Liam was born, it ...
Let’s Talk Tuesday #17
Given that I am unbelievably excited for the unofficial start of Fall, today's Let's Talk Tuesday post is going to be Fall themed. #basic If you haven't been able to tell yet, Fall is my favorite and all of the leaves changing is one of my favorite parts of fall (other than pumpkin spice obvi). We are lucky enough to live within 2 hours of 2 of the top 10 places to view Fall leaves in the South! Whoop whoop! Fun Fact: I specifically wanted a fall wedding so we could have photos ...
Classic Peach Pie with Flaky Lattice Crust
There are certain foods that just make you think of a specific time of year and Peach Pie just screams summer! While Summer is winding down, I wanted to squeeze in this this last decadent treat before we move out of peach season and into apple and pumpkin spice season. I was lucky enough to partner with OXO on this post in support of a great cause, Cookies for Kid's Cancer. This fantastic organization raises money by hosting bake sale's across the country where the proceeds go to 5 of the ...
