Ideas for Creating Birth Announcements

  Creating birth announcements is something I really enjoy. I think because I truly love receiving birth announcements, I put a lot of time and thought into the ones I get to send. We’ve used Classic Kids Photography over the past few years for photos of our children. This is the first time we were lucky enough to have them… Read More

Back to School with Boden & A Chance to Win a $750 Gift Card

I can’t believe the summer is coming to an end. I’m not too happy to have to get back on a schedule and swap days at the pool and beach for days of carpool and homework.

A Letter to My Last Baby at 6 Months

Dear Miles,  Today you are 6 months old. I’m sure I’ve said the same thing in every birthday note I’ve written to each of your siblings, but I can’t believe you are already 6 months old.  At the same time, you’ve completed our family in such a way, that it seems like you’ve been with us forever.  When I think… Read More
