"Because that's what we should all do- graduate college just to start popping out some kids." That's what the girl across the room in my American Literature class said as her and another peer sat gossiping about me as I showed a friend the ultrasound pictures when I found out my firstborn was a boy.

It's beginning to finally feel like fall-ish around here in the Phoenix area. That means that the highs are starting to be in the lower 90s to 80s instead of near the 100s, and our lows in the mornings are in the 60s. Yep. That's fall here.

However, in the spirit of giving myself grace, I decided to still share some excellent pictures and facts about Levi that apply to him around June 8, 2016. Prepare for an overwhelming amount of pictures. We first celebrated Levi's birthday in a local park with family friends...
Helllllooooooo strangers! I realize that I haven't written on here in, well, months. Truth be told I've been busy keeping up my other blog and starting a new business. All the while, the newfangled housewife duties never ceased-- they just haven't been shared on here! I won't make promises of changing that on a consistent basis, but I am hoping to get a...
