I'm excited to share this post, now that I've decided I'm officially done with all the freezer meals I want to do! :) If you count each individual meal, I have made 18 meals, plus some grab-and-go breakfast/snack items. Each meal should technically feed our family for more than one meal...so I'm pretty pleased with how this project turned out! :) I prepared a lot of freezer meals back when I was expecting Sophie 2 years ago as well, so this is my second time prepping this way! However, back … [Read more...]
Our Simple Fall Decor
I'm going to tell you right away: even though I'm writing a post about fall decor, our Christmas tree is definitely up in the living room already! :) We decided to set it up early this year, along with our other Christmas decor, because baby boy could come any day and then life will be just a little bit more busy! ;) Anyway, Thanksgiving still isn't for a couple of weeks, and it is still technically fall! We may have snow on the ground here in Minnesota, but I've been enjoying all the fall … [Read more...]
Fall 2019 Pregnancy Update + Life Update
Hey friends! I'm excited about today's post because I feel like we just get to sit down and chat! :) Although it would've been nice to maintain a regular pregnancy bumpdate posting schedule...life has been busy and it just didn't happen. #secondchildproblems (Sorry, little guy! We still love you so much!!) So, I'm taking the time today to update you on all things baby and otherwise! I know I enjoy reading other bloggers' (and non-bloggers') life updates - I genuinely care about what's going … [Read more...]
Recent Favorites (food, toddler, clothing, + home)
It's been quite some time since I've shared a favorites post here! I absolutely love reading them on others' blogs, or seeing other women share their favorites on YouTube. If you've followed the person for a while, then it's like getting recommendations from a good friend! :) As always, I only share products that I personally use and actually like! The last favorites post I shared was my May 2019 Favorites! Wow. A lot of life has happened since then, so here are my tried-and-trues from summer … [Read more...]
Our Daily Routine
The last time I shared a peek at our daily life was back in January! Since then, Sophie has grown and matured SO much, I've gotten a better hold on my anxiety, we've found out we're pregnant with our second child (due in late November!), and even more! With all these shifts and changes going on, our schedule has shifted a bit as well. If you love reading others' daily rhythms and routines like I do, then you'll enjoy today's post! I'm including a lot of extra commentary, as is my custom, haha, … [Read more...]
Recipes We’ve Been Loving Lately (+ a peek at what we’re trying this week!)
Maybe it's pregnancy, nesting, or it's just a new fun "hobby," but I've been really into finding new recipes recently! Some of them have been healthy and some have been...well, not healthy, but definitely still delicious! :) Bjorn was gone for a month this summer for army, and that's when I got a bit carried away with desserts! Hypothetically, it's a little dangerous for me as a pregnant mama to sit home alone with my daughter and a huge batch of raspberry dark chocolate cookies. … [Read more...]
First Trimester Recap
Whew! What a blur these last few months have been! Back when I was pregnant with Sophie, the pregnancy updates were a lot more frequent and timely! ;) But now I'm chasing around a busy toddler and our schedule has been quite full lately, so it's taken even longer for me to get around to blogging! In today's post, I'm going to share some of the basic highlights (and some of the more difficult things, I suppose) from the first trimester this time around! (PS - in case you missed it, here's our … [Read more...]
A Day at the Zoo
Recently we got to spend the day down in Iowa with family, and our adventure for the day was the zoo! We visited the Blank Park Zoo in Des Moines, and it was a really sweet day! Sophie's favorite part was getting to feed a giraffe, but the whole zoo was all interesting and exciting to her anyway! :) It's so fun because she loves reading about animals at home, but then she gets extra excited when she sees them at the zoo in real life! Sophie and her cousin Mia got to wear matching "sister" … [Read more...]
