It's taken me awhile to share Rosie's nursery, but I am FINALLY sharing a few photos. I am excited to share the inspiration, what we picked out, and also some space-saving tips. I still have some finishing touches (I want to add some pink touches at some point!) but here are a few fun photos! The Inspiration The inspiration for the nursery is actually this wall hanging that I made, We collected all of the sea glass when we were in the Bahamas last November (we did not know we were ...

Rosie is now 10 weeks old! At what age does is she not considered a newborn anymore? Wait, don't tell me (cue the tears!) Can't she stay a newborn forever? There are a bunch of newborn products that have gotten us through the past ten weeks. The newborn stage is rough! Hopefully some of these newborn products can make your life a bit easier! Soothie Pacifiers // Wubbanub These pacifiers are the only ones that Rosie will take now. I like that you can put your finger into it and the baby is ... View the Post

Rosie is now 8 weeks old and I am just getting her newborn photos up! That's life with a newborn I guess! I absolutely loved how they turned out and I think they captured her perfectly.

Health Benefits of Baby Wearing Health of baby: Baby wearing stabilizes baby's heart rate, body temperature, and blood sugar levels. It ... View the Post

I am just over 3 weeks postpartum, and let me tell you, it's been rough. I spent a lot of time preparing for both the birth and the baby, but not enough time preparing for postpartum! I ended up buying quite a few things on Amazon Prime because I didn't have the items that I needed. How much time did I spend packing that dang hospital bag, yet I didn't buy anything for once I left the hospital! Every postpartum situation is going to be different, and it depends a lot on what your birth was ... View the Post
