Tonight I was laying in bed next to Will. It's a routine that my husband and I started; every night, one of us has a turn putting Nathan to sleep, while one of us puts Will to sleep. Putting Will to bed includes reading two bedtime stories (it usually turns into 3 or 4, this … Continue reading #63 A Boy’s Love for his Mama.

#62 Nashville Flea Market.
Andrew and I have had the best luck shopping at the Nashville Flea Market, and this weekend was no exception.

Now that we have our two little boys, I … Continue reading #62 Nashville Flea Market.
