**This post contains affiliate links** 25 weeks. 6 months. The size of a melon. I cannot believe I am already this far along. With Dylan, I documented each week with a bump photo and growth update. This time around, well I have really done nothing. I mean, how are you suppose to keep up with a kid, work, run a household, and take care of a new horse, while documenting all of these things?! I can only have 1 cup of coffee a day people, and 0 tequila! I was at about 18 weeks when ...

Friday Favorites – The Last Friday of Summer Vacation
Well, that went fast. Our last Friday before school starts, and my little is officially in Pre-K. We headed to his open house last week to learn more about the program and what was to be expected. He is staying at the same daycare we moved to earlier this year, so it isn’t too much of a change. Dylan is actually going to miss his first day of VPK. I know, mother of the year, but tickets were much cheaper flying home on Monday instead of Sunday. We are currently on our last vacation of the ...
Last Minute Road Trip Packing
We are back from our last minute road trip! We made the decision on a Friday night and we left on Monday morning. Robby is pretty much traveling Monday-Friday since his promotion which has been a big transition for our family. So when he told me he was headed to Jacksonville and then Charleston and would be gone Monday-Saturday we decided to make it a family affair! We drove from Orlando to Jacksonville on Monday morning and stayed there until Tuesday night when we drove to Charleston, and came ...
2018 Summer Bucket List
Summer is here! Well, almost for us. I have been working A LOT lately, and I've decided it is more important for me to live in the moment with the little guy. My schedule is going to have to be switched around a little, and I might have to work some early mornings or late nights, but I know it will be totally worth it. I am taking Dylan out of daycare for 6 weeks. His last day will be next Friday until he starts VPK in August. EEK! - V.P.K. I'm having a hard time accepting that he will be on ...
Last Minute Fathers Day Gifts
*This post contains affiliate links* Fathers Day is less than a week away! Our family has been going full speed the last month, and it doesn’t look like it is slowing down anytime soon. June is a busy month for us because it includes Robby’s birthday, Fathers Day, and our annual family vacation to Pompano Beach. This year Robby turns the big 30, so on top of his normal birthday festivities we took an adult only cruise earlier this month and we thre a big party at our house with the kids to ...
DIY 1: Painting
So the house is officially ours, and all of my Pinterest boards are about to come to life! I mean obviously I'm going to be the #nailedit type. The first thing I do when we get the keys to our home is take a ride over to Home Depot. I am completely giddy and over the top to take this first trip and buy as much as I can so that when Robby is off the next day we are ready to go. With my list in my hand, my first stop is paint - I am in charge of picking out all of the colors. We had originally ...
Our New Home
Ok, so I know I am about a month late on this, BUT.. there has been A LOT going on. We are currently moved in to our new home, but that doesn't mean we are done renovating/decorating/DIYing the farm life. I started writing this and well, trying to get in our new home took precedence. I am now putting it all together, so you can follow our journey to the farm life, and all of the ups, downs, and learning experiences that come along with it. I'm currently running on a lot of coffee to get through ...
Bye Bye 2017 – A year in review
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Wow! 2017 is just days away from being over.I feel like this past year was a whirlwind, so many amazing things and changes have happened for our family this year, and I am so excited for what 2018 has to bring. MILESTONE #1 One of my goals for 2017 was to find a new career doing what I love. It was one of the most difficult decisions to leave a comfortable job that I loved, but I knew that it wasn't for me in the long run. I couldn't be happier with the ...
Friday Favorites – Halloween
It's the first Friday of November, and my first Friday Favorites - Halloween edition. This week was filled with so much fun! Unfortunately, the little one was sick last weekend, so we missed the family Halloween party, but we were able to visit our local Church's pumpkin patch and paint pumpkins with just 2 days until Halloween.Nothing like putting it off until the last minute, but hey - it was great! Dylan was so excited to pick out pumpkins and was even willing to take pictures - as long as he ...
Oh, Hello November!
With the cooler Florida weather there is no doubt that it is fall y'all! I feel that our life has been going on 100 mph the past month! We have had a lot of weekend trips, Halloween festivities, and potentially getting ready to close on our new home! The home buying process is a roller coaster. When we started we were so busy that I didn't really notice. Now we feel that this is going at a snails pace since we are home and playing the waiting game. We have so much to be thankful for ...
Mommy Moment #4
Dylan: Mommy, you are my mommy now because I am little, but when I grow up to the sky and turn into a T-Rex you aren't my mom anymore. Me: I will always be your mommy, no matter how big you are. Dylan: Even when I grow to the sky like T-Rex? Me: Of course, no matter what, I will always be your mommy! Dylan: Wow, thats cool. ...
Mommy Moment #3
Dylan: Mommy Charlie hurt me can you tell her to go to time out? Me: No Dylan: Why? Because she’s a girl? Me: No, because she’s a dog. Dylan: That’s not a good reason ...
