just our day to day life
When I was pregnant with Jenson and first starting looking at baby clothing, I had no idea how confusing baby clothing sizing could be. The one thing I knew was that my 7 nieces and nephews (at that point) were all over 8 lbs., and …
I haven’t done a “Day in the Life” post since January since my first day home alone with both kids. Things have settled down more since then and we’re on a slightly better routine and get to leave the house sometimes since the weather is …
My spring volleyball league started last night. I played in the spring league after Jenson was born too, but that was almost 5 months postpartum…not 2.5. And I worked out most days of my pregnancy with Jenson, unlike with Marlowe. And I had lost all …
You might think that my biggest nursing supporter is Lo, or even my lactation consultant. But no…it’s Jenson. Although sometimes he gets mad when I have to feed Marlowe and he wants to sit on my lap and read, he’s more than happy to demonstrate …

There have been times when Jenson looked a little like me (when he was an infant), and occasionally he makes faces that are similar to mine. But, seriously. Is he even mine?? Last week a lady in Hobby Lobby asked me if I was babysitting …
As I’ve mentioned, Jenson is all about daddy right now. He gets tired of being with me all day long, so when Lo gets home, he doesn’t want to leave his side (“daddy, daddy, daddy” anytime Lo walks out of the room). Lately, he’s been …
