Friends, I am so excited to share with you the first big room reveal in our new home! Every room needed a little (or, let's be real, a lot) of love and attention, so choosing which room to really rip apart and put back together first took some time. But after a few weeks of working in a hot pink office after we moved in, I knew just where I wanted to start.
Read MoreEight months ago I shared the last update in our infertility journey. Since then we’ve had some disappointment, a well deserved break and a renewed sense of energy and hope, and I’m excited to share with you where we are in the process now!
Read MoreIt's been a while since my last infertility update, but a number of you have reached out to see how we are doing and where we are in the process, so I felt like an update was in order! If you remember from my last post, our doctor in Florida had encouraged us to find a fertility specialist after we moved and start exploring the process of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).

Read MoreIs it too late to say Happy New Year? I have a feeling that it is, but I'm going to say it anyway - Happy New Year, friends! For two years now I have used PowerSheets to set my annual goals.

Read MoreHappy November, friends! I feel like I've said this the past couple of monthly goal posts, but I cannot believe how quickly the end of this year is moving. The cold weather has arrived in Pennsylvania and I have to tell you that while I'm excited, I'm also really cold! I never thought I'd say it, but living for three years in Florida has spoiled me a bit...
Read MoreWell, September has come and gone, and I'm finding it a bit hard to believe! I remember my mom used to say that time moves faster the older you get, and that is feeling more and more true. I'm excited to be in this month - even though there seems to be quite a bit in my life right now that is making me uneasy and nervous, I'm hopeful for a positive and wonderful month!
Read MoreHappy first day of fall, friends! My favorite season of the year has officially started - although to step outside this weekend you wouldn't know it. Summer is trying to hold on for just a bit longer, and temperatures that are almost in the 90s are sending her message loud and clear! I'm resisting though and I'd be lying to you if I said I hadn't already mentally embraced the fall season when some cooler temperatures arrived a couple of weeks ago.
