We had a lot of fun traveling to Joshua Tree National Park for some families I photographed! What a spectacular place, not to mention a boy wonder land with rocks to climb and animals roaming freely. We will back for sure.

Our date nights have been pretty far and few between with husband's crazy schedule, but last night my sister treated us to a night out and somehow I threw these two colors together and it worked! Mint green and carmel brown, who knew?!

I have a bit of a hunter boot saga. They've been on my wish list for quite some time and the moment I decided to give in and purchase they were sold out of the color I wanted, drat. So I waited and waited and even ordered a size down to see if that would work. You know the whole cinderella step…

vest: threadsence I actually couldn't believe I bought this vest. It was right after I took a solemn vow to be more adult and invest in classic pieces instead of falling prey to trends! So I've been wearing "cheetah" around the house and then got bold enough to wear it to church. I…

Babydoll (my latest nickname) turned two months and I continue to live in baby wonderland. If you heard my babytalk all day long you would laugh out loud, I'm totally in love. With my first I was a nervous wreck, up all night, and had no idea what I was doing. This time, I still don't know…

Its safe to say I'm already ahead of the curve on Fall's leopard trend! Animal prints are becoming the new classics!!
Leopard skirt from target, a whooping $12!
Note the leopard throw on the couch!
A leopard throw rug in the nursery, naturally!

I think I have a budding photographer on my hands! At chuck e cheese's this week, I caught him in chuck e's photo booth taking a picture of himself and even centering his face in the frame! Too funny!

Bo's breath smells just like honey, I literally sniff it all day!!! Thus the nickname honeybee, plus I have to nickname everything!

Well, here we are still waiting, but only a day longer! Tomorrow is induction day, which I have mixed feelings about, while I can't wait to meet this guy I'd rather have it on my own terms! Since we went this route with our first I know what to expect in general (evil pitocin!) Nonetheless,…

So we've had these gift certificates to a great french restaurant in Old town Fredericksburg and finally put them to use! All the more feeding into my desire to visit France someday soon! The food was so good and I ate it so fast I forgot to take a picture!


 Oh my he is handsome!

We made it to the end, well almost...I"m due anywhere from July 4-11! I'm feeling quite ready and round, that tree is holding me up!





When pregnant just throw on a bunch of accessories and its all good!
Can't wait to see his sweet face, thank you again for all your prayers and well wishes…

I might of accidentally got this baby pink leather Cynthia Rowley bag from Tjmaxx instead of a diaper bag, opps! But for a Mama who's been and will continue to be knee deep in earth worms, trucks, trains, and all things boy I needed a little pink in my life!
 I'm a little off balance these d…
