Every weekend I take Fox shopping with me — whether it be for groceries, necessary errands, or just for fun. It’s something we’ve started up since his little brother was born as a bonding moment for just the two of us. We frequently stop at Tuesday Morning on these trips. Remember when he helped me decorate our sunroom wall-to-wall with items from Tuesday Morning? Last weekend we were on a mission to get into gear for back to school. We…
Confession time: I’ve had a habit of buying clothes for future children since I was 18 years old. I specifically remember heading into the Fashion Outlets of Niagara Falls and being compelled to pick…
I’ve made it no secret that nursing my first child didn’t work out. One of the major obstacles I faced was that the professionals that were there to guide me made me feel judged…
The other day I rounded up the family and set off for the park down the street. This isn’t your ordinary park. Well, maybe it is but not to me. It’s the same park…
As women, we have heard all of the stories, testimonials, trials, and successes of becoming a mom. We’re told that it’s the most difficult job in the world but also the most rewarding. There’s…
There’s been a lot of changes happening within our home in the recent months. Fox has been growing like a weed, with full-blown opinions and tastes that change seemingly every day. And our newest,…
Thank you Baby Dove for sponsoring this post. When my first son, Fox, was a baby it was painfully obvious that he had sensitive skin. From the day he was born we battled with…

A few weekends back I hit the thrift stores with my mom. We were on the lookout for some unique decor for the nursery, something I’d struggled with finding. Charlie’s room is a…
I hate to admit it, but Fox had never really slept in his bed until recently. I’d tried just about everything from Dockatot shifting, “big boy” bed with his original crib mattress, new bedding,…
When I moved back to Buffalo in 2018, I felt like I was learning my city all over again. Not only was I showing my California-born and raised husband the 716 ropes, but a…
When we moved back to Buffalo we decided to look into renting rather than owning a home. Tyler is not from the area and I wanted to make sure he was happy in whatever…
We’ve somehow managed to turn the Family Room to the Playroom, the Living Room to the Family Room, Fox’s Room to the Nursery, and the Nursery to Fox’s room in 3 weeks flat. It’s been…
Around the time that the Rock ‘n Play recall occurred, my youngest son Charlie was about 2 months old. Charlie does not like to be flat on his back at all which posed a…
Even though we’ve had a lot of major changes around here lately (new city, new baby) everything else has pretty much stayed the same. I stay home with Charlie all day and have quickly…
