It's 10:30pm--exactly 30 minutes past my bedtime. (Yes, I'm an old geezer.) And instead of being fast asleep (like the snoring Frenchie next to me), I'm sitting on the couch reflecting on my day. Blogging. I feel incredibly lucky that, in Arden's first year of life, there weren't too many rough days. Challenging days? Heck yes. But really rough, I-don't-know-how-I'm-going-to-make-it-out-alive days…thankfully, those have been few and far between. Today wasn't ...
Arden: 13 Months!
Happy 13 months to the sweetest girl I know! Height: 33 inchesWeight: 23 lbsClothing size: mostly 18-24 monthsShoe size: 4 Number of teeth: 9 Dear Arden, What a month it's been!!! This month has by far brought the most changes--and it's also been the most fun. It's like you turned one and said, "hey, I think I'm going to be a toddler now". You sign "more" for everything--food, toys, music, or even when you just want me. Sometimes it's a guessing game, but ...
Friday!

Since it's pretty much all I can think about these days, let's just kick this thing off with some Halloween fun! My mom sent me this recipe for Caramel Apple Rice Krispie Treats the other day…they look amazing, but I also can't get over is the decor for this costume party. Just look at those spider ...
Kid Tested, Mom Approved: Go-To Gear!
I am SO very excited to be hosting today's link up: Go-To Gear! You know the drill…just grab the button below and share with us the gear that's on your must-have list! When I was pregnant with Arden people always told me that this tiny little thing would come with a lot of stuff. I would kind of laugh and agree with them…but holy cow, I had no idea how right they were!!! It seems like every week we have something new coming in and something old going up--to the ...
KTMA: Tried & True Toys!
Hey-o! It's day 5 of the Kid Tested, Mom Approved Link-Up party! I don't know about you guys, but I have gotten so many great ideas over the past 2 weeks--I've just been pinning my little heart out! Today's topic is "Tried & True Toys," hosted by the one and only Julie, from The Girl in the Red Shoes! I can't wait to see what Julie's handsome little Hudson is playing with these days. He and Arden are only a couple of weeks apart so I always get great ideas and ...
Fall(ish) Weekend + Mommy & Me!
Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone that voted for Arden's birthday party on Project Nursery! We didn't win (shucks!) but feel pretty honored to have even been in the running! I'm kicking off the week over here by joining Emily and Leah for Mommy & Me Monday! This picture isn't new, but it's one of my favorites of my sweet girl & me. I love her so! And here's a little recap of our Fall{ish} weekend. Yes, I'm just like the rest of ...
