My little girls just spent this past weekend at a father-daughter campout, and had the time of their lives (!!), but it somehow sparked a deep need in my eldest to have more one-on-one time with me. So. On a particularly blustery day, we dressed our own versions of “French,” bought croissants, and walked around
Outta the Park
Part Two of last post…. Same day, different outfit. This day was outta-the-park good – one for the books. It was one of those days where everything just easily fell into place, and had the perfect motion and cadence of a film…. A rarity in this circus fam, to say the least! After shopping and browsing
Spring has Sprung
While much of the east coast is all bundled up, and bracing against the bitter cold, us Oregonians are baring legs and donning light jackets – just in case we get a slight chill (yes, I’m totally bragging). I cannot even believe it. It’s February!!! And I am not complaining one bit. I’m not even
A (Scarlett) Rose by any other Name…
I loved putting this post together, because I felt as though I could see my daughter through a literal, fresh lens. Since the day she was born, she’s always been so calm, collected, and even when holding her in my arms those first few minutes of her life, I felt like she already knew all
I Heart U
So, yesterday was our “weekend,” which meant Mama had to get some looks shot. Between the almost-rain, the actual rain, and my squirrely three-year-old, this shoot was a hoot! I included more photos than usual, because they kind of viewed like a moving picture, driven by a mighty Charlie force. 😉 Hope you enjoy the Charlie
Love in the (Late) Afternoon
You’ve seen that movie, right? Love in the Afternoon with Audrey Hepburn and Gary Cooper? Well anyway, that’s where my title came from in case you were lost 😉 As I’ve probably mentioned 2,700+ times, dates with my one-and-only are hard to carve out, but when we are able, we pounce on ’em. This was
Moms with Style: The Must-Have Mom Piece
If there is one item that has jumped out as a piece that is worn over, and over, and over again by the chicest moms on the planet (preggo and non), it’s the black, leather jacket. If you don’t own one, you’ll want to after this post! And we’ve shopped a variety of perfect options for
Ice Dream Date
I recently went on a little ice cream date with my 6-year-old son, and I can’t tell you how unbelievably sweet the whole experience was! It expanded far beyond the 45 minutes of precious, one-on-one time (and in our crazy, 4-kiddo fam, one-on-one time is Holy Grail sacred). In the days leading up to it,
Space Travel
My baby boy turned three! How did that happen?! We all talk about how fast it all goes by, because it’s all too true. This is the beginning of a Brand New Era for my husband and I. Having 4 kiddos in 4.5 years, has meant that we’ve been digging in the baby/toddler trenches for 7.5
