  • A Better World

    I  think I’m officially a mommy blogger, as all my posts of late center around my baby. But how can you blame me?  She has yet to lose that new baby smell as my husband jokingly says. She is my obsession. She will always be my obsession. She is sleeping in my arms as I… Read more

    My dear Emma Kate, You are two months old already!  Time is zipping past.  I can’t hardly stand it.  I’m cherishing every day I have with you.   The biggest piece of advice I get from other moms is to not blink and take lots of pictures because you’ll be grown before I know it.… Read more

  • Shots.

    In two short days, my baby girl has to get her 2 month shots. Oh, how I dread it.  To the very core. She’s oblivious.  She doesn’t know what is up ahead.  But I do. She is content and happy, living in her little 2 month world.  Trusting her mama and daddy to take care… Read more

  • All Her Parts

      Our baby girl turned 8 weeks old yesterday. People say she’s tiny, but she’s already grown so much to me.     I tried to capture her in all her little 8 week oldness.  She’s changing so much, so quickly.     Her daddy’s in love with her side profile.  And all the rest… Read more

  • Babywearing 101

    My sister told me it was for wearing my baby  as she handed me the baby wrap.  I looked at her like she had stepped off the planet Zonkers.  It was an excessively long piece of material designed to be twisted, wrapped, tied, and superglued to my body.  I’ve seen people  wearing these contraptions with… Read more

  • Just Emma

    Eat, sleep, poop, repeat. Our days   zoom past. Eat, sleep, poop, repeat. And I’m not just talking about EK either. Eat, sleep, poop, repeat. Sometimes in addition to the aforementioned, we take pictures. And on occasion, I’ll get a request from a family member for more pictures of EK. They pretty much all look… Read more

  • Celebrate Good Times

    My little traveler has already visited 3 states in her six short weeks of being alive.  She’s practically a world traveler. Her first trip was to the Green Country of  Northeastern Oklahoma to visit her Okie relatives. Mainly this sweet great-grandmother who just so happens to share her birthday. There’s only a mere 94 years… Read more

  • 1 month old

    My Darling Emma Kate, I’m writing to you, my precious, even though I know you can’t read yet.  But you’re so smart, I’m convinced it will probably only take you another couple of months at the rate you’re going!    I want to capture your life and all its milestones, stepping stones, and rocky roads… Read more

    Our baby girl is already 3 weeks old, and has completely stolen our hearts. Read more

  • Emotions.

    The first time I watched the movie Raising Arizona, I couldn’t believe how stupid it was.  But, in its defense, I didn’t really watch it.  I busied myself with other things, catching snippets here and there while my husband sat in his chair giggling his little butt off at, in my opinion, bad actors. At… Read more
