Good morning. It’s been another week so I hope you’ll join me for a coffee chat. – Eloise turned 4 months old this week. I can’t believe how fast she’s growing up. She’s getting so close to rolling over and loves to “stand up” with some help of course. Today she has her doctors appointment […]
Because Memorial Day is freaking hard
This past weekend I’ve seen so many posts reminding people what Memorial Day is all about. And that’s awesome because it’s a super important day. But I mentally can’t spend all of Memorial Day the way it was “intended.” Especially this year. This year is too heavy already. I’ve seen other posts about “observing” vs […]
Tuesday Morning Coffee: 5/19/20
Good morning friends! How are we holding up? I’ve been a little behind posting these Tuesday morning chats…because honestly life has been a whole lot overwhelming but also not very exciting all at once. But my guess is that most people are feeling that way lately. So if you’ve been stuck in a rut, I […]
The First Deployment With Kids
The first deployment with kids…because it’s a totally different rodeo! #deployment #milspousemonday
The Importance of a Future Dream
Military life means that a lot of things are out of your control. The biggest thing is that where you move, and how often, is ultimately up to somebody else. Somebody who really doesn’t care what you think. Sounds a lot like life right now during the COVID-19 lockdown too right? Just like people are […]
Tuesday Morning Coffee: 3/31/20
We’ve officially made it to the end of March!!! I thought January felt forever long….but now I am fully aware that was just a warm up for March. And if I’m being honest, April is starting to look like it might last forever too. I told our pediatrician yesterday that it felt like we should […]
When deployment meets a global pandemic
Coronavirus. And deployment. All at once. This is fun right? I was getting a little confident, thinking this deployment was almost over and I had done pretty well. Sure I moved home with my mom to have some help, but I had done holidays, an ER trip for the toddler, and had a baby all […]
Tuesday Morning Coffee: 3/17/20
Gooooooood morning! If you’ve been around here a while, you may remember that I used to do a post that was basically a virtual coffee date on Tuesday mornings. It was my take on something my gramma has been doing for years. Of course her version is in person rather than digital, but at the […]
I’m jealous of my deployed spouse
Deployments are hard for everyone involved, and sometimes leave me feeling jealous of my deployed husband!
What the heck is “mom style” anyways?
I love sharing what I’m wearing on Instagram. And I’ve been using #momstyle on a lot of pictures…but I just recently started to wonder what exactly counts as “mom style.” The thing is, I think it means something different to everyone…and that’s what makes it fun! That said, I’m working to share more outfits and […]
