My Favorite Baby Products (Months 3 to 6)
Like I mentioned in an earlier post back when Sophie was just 3 months old, Bjorn and I have slowly been curating a collection of baby-related items that we're really grateful we have! Some have been recommended to us or given to us, and we've found some on our own after research or randomly at the store, but each product in today’s post is a favorite of ours! Today, I'm essentially continuing the post I wrote back when Sophie was 3 months old...but this time, we're 3 more months down the … [Read more...]

Time sure flies, doesn't it? Somedays, I'm blown away when I realize just how long Sophie's been a part of our family! It feels like I just wrote about our daily routine, but things have changed!

Friendship in Marriage (After Having a Baby)
My husband Bjorn and I are best friends. And there's weight behind those words. This is my personal opinion, but I think that some people whisk their way into marriage without evaluating the question of, Can I truly do daily life with this person? It seems that so many people love "how he makes me feel" or how in love they feel - expressing how constantly exciting and dramatically uplifting it is for them to be in love! That's all wonderful, in a way...but I don't think we should overlook the … [Read more...]

Our Favorite Handmade Wooden Toys (+ a discount for you!)
Even before I was pregnant with Sophie, I was pretty adamant that my home wouldn't be filled with mounds of electronic toys. While I have calmed down a bit in regards to that idea (for instance, Sophie has a play gym with an owl that plays songs)...something in me still remains such a fan of the more handmade category of toys. Thank you to Bannor Toys for these toys! (I partnered with Bannor Toys on Instagram, but because I'm so impressed, I also wanted to share about the company here on the … [Read more...]
Motherhood: The Most Extreme Makeover
Oh, motherhood. My days certainly look a lot different now than they used to! I'm starting to type this post with one hand as I sit nursing sweet Sophie, but I pause often to stroke her fuzzy head and kiss her hand that always seems to wander up to rest on my throat. I love these moments with her. Before I know it, my daughter is going to be walking, and talking, and then wanting to do things all by herself! So it's extra special that she needs me so much right now. It is also hard. I'm … [Read more...]
