#69 Starts with the letter “C”.

August 10, 2018August 14, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Every Friday, Will's class is asked to bring in items that start with a particular letter. This week, the letter "C" was selected. Will and I had talked all week about what item he should bring to share with his classmates. As I was putting toys away last night, I came across his PJ Mask … Continue reading #69 Starts with the letter “C”.

#68 My Attempt at Yoga.

August 9, 2018August 14, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Over the last several weeks, it has been difficult for me to wake up extra early, pack the kids up in the morning, and get them out the door at a decent time.  This has been rather unfortunate, because then I feel rushed into my morning since I am barely making it to work at … Continue reading #68 My Attempt at Yoga.

#67 Nathan’s Birthday Invite.

August 6, 2018August 14, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

I shared Will's birthday invitation, and while I cannot take credit for Nathan's adorable announcement, I had to post his invitation here.  His birthday theme is construction, and I am having so much fun coming up with decorations for his party. I cannot wait to post pictures from his birthday celebration, it will be here … Continue reading #67 Nathan’s Birthday Invite.

#65 What a Day.

August 4, 2018August 13, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

There are some days when you think life cannot get any more chaotic than it already is, but then it proves you wrong.  Today was that day, and man, I am beat. Our hot water heater broke this week, so it has been quite the adventure trying to keep two kids and ourselves clean in … Continue reading #65 What a Day.

#64 Will’s Big Boy Room.

August 1, 2018August 12, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Long before Andrew and I were trying for our second baby, we started the transition for Will to move into his big boy room. Since the nursery was decorated as gender neutral, the plan was to keep the room the same for baby #2 and to move Will across the hall into his new room. … Continue reading #64 Will’s Big Boy Room.

#63 A Boy’s Love for his Mama.

July 31, 2018August 11, 2018 ~ alifewellloved ~ Leave a comment

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.

July 30, 2018August 12, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Andrew and I have had the best luck shopping at the Nashville Flea Market, and this weekend was no exception. I have been thinking about redoing parts of the guest bathroom for some time now, and I came across the perfect wall decor for the space.  Now that we have our two little boys, I … Continue reading #62 Nashville Flea Market.

#61 Camping in the Backyard.

July 28, 2018August 12, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Andrew and I are really looking forward to when our boys are a bit older and we can take them camping; we really think that will be the main way for us to take trips and see the country. Andrew has been itching to get Will outside in a tent so Will can try camping … Continue reading #61 Camping in the Backyard.

#60 Taco Party.

July 26, 2018August 10, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Tonight we went to our neighbors' house for a neighborhood taco party.  About 5 families were there, all with our kids, husband, and wives, easily tallying 20 people.  It was so nice to have a low-key night not having to cook and catching up with our good friends.  This summer has just flown by.  I … Continue reading #60 Taco Party.

#59 Health Scare.

July 24, 2018August 10, 2018 ~ alifewellloved

Today was the day of my mammogram and breast ultrasound.  I wish I could say that everything appeared to be 100% normal and I have nothing to fear.  I really wish I could say that. It was an emotionally exhausting, stressful, and terrifying day.  I did not realize how stressed I have been about this … Continue reading #59 Health Scare.
