Baby Five is here! But first a pregnancy story: A couple months ago I was browsing Goodwill (mostly looking for a butter dish before checking Target) and came across a gem in their dresses section. It was navy and flowery and comfortable and from Lands’ End. And in my size. Those are all my favorite […]

Mass was an event today. It wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t even muster a recap like a few weeks ago, though. So that’s a small victory. Here’s a quick recap: Moe did great while he was looking through one of the picture Bibles we bring to church. That is, until he figured out how […]
As someone who dabbles in direct sales with Norwex and Usborne (thanks for checking out my shopping links!), I appreciate the work that others put into their small businesses. When Mandi from A Blog About Miscarriage offered some Lilla Rose haircessories in exchange for an honest review, I was excited to give them a try. […]

My Sunday Best! With Cee and Bea! We wore blue in honor of Ascension Sunday. The other kids shimmied out of their church clothes as soon as they got through the door, so they missed out on the group picture. No one was awful enough to be taken out of Mass today! Cee hasn’t […]

Thanks to someone using my affiliate link for their first Dia Box, I had enough credit to try this service again! (I won’t go rehash all the details, but you can visit my first review for all the specifics.) My fifth time posting the results is the first in which I’ve been brave enough to wear the […]
