Greetings from San Antonio! Just stopping in for a quick visit. Vacation is off to a great start. We went to Fredericksburg, Texas for a few days to visit my in-laws and every time I go there I am reminded at how much I love that town. It’s a small town yet there is a…
Pregnancy Update: 14 weeks {1st Trimester Recap}
I am so happy to finally be entering the second trimester. I am thankful that those yucky pregnancy symptoms don’t last throughout my whole pregnancy like for some poor women, but those first few months are definitely rough. I don’t plan on doing weekly updates here on the blog but thought I’d at least…
Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes
(please excuse the iphone photos for today’s post) Did you all have a nice weekend? We sure did because daddy came home after being gone for 3 weeks! 3 very long, summer weeks, but despite our rocky start (sick kids, ER visit for my youngest) the time apart did get a little easier this time…
No-Bake Oatmeal Raisin Protein Cookies

Old School Blogging
Thank you to my blogging friend Angela who tagged me to play along with this fun blogging quiz, the alphabet edition. I was going to save this for a fun Friday post, but my past week has been hell. Hubs out of town, sick kids, not feeling well preggo mama. I needed a good excuse…
Homemade Ranch Dressing
Hi friends! I just wanted to post a quick update on my pregnancy since I have been a bad blogger since the morning sickness hit. I am 11 weeks and feeling better each day, nausea is a lot better but not completely gone. I got to see the little nugget for the first time this…
Pin It Party!
Thank you all for your sweet comments last week regarding our exciting annoucment. I have to say with each passing week I am feeling a bit better, but I still want to crawl in bed by 8:45pm and stay in as long as I can. Sleep truly makes me feel better so I am taking…
