(New family pic taken by Britta Brown Photography) Here I am, continuing into month two of trying out this new way of posting about our general life happenings (inspired by this blog) and dumping all the pictures we take on a daily basis (okay, not all, but more than you’d get otherwise). September ended up …
(Now) You Know What I Did This Summer
Now that it’s basically almost fall, I figured I’d better get around to finally posting these pics from our family sleepover party from, um, a month ago. I also figured I’d better do an update on how we did on our summer bucket list. (Of course, if I was really wanting to spend 4 hours …
August Summed Up in a Sentence-(Ish) Per Day
You may or may not have noticed, but August was the first month I didn’t do a 10 on 10 post since I started doing them all the way back in February 2016. The truth was, they started to stress me out because of the sheer number of photos, plus I got a little tired …

And because we’re basically poor from having just bought …
Are We Still Pretending This is Actually Just 10 on 10?
(Because you all should know by now I’m incapable of narrowing it down to just 10 pictures.) 1 // Yogurt face. Also, I live with two people with ridiculous eyelashes. That’s all. 2 // The obsession with dandelions continues. 3 // We started pulling back all of her hair into a ponytail for the first …
I Used to Be Scared of Two-Year-Olds
Three and a half years ago, I wrote a post all about how my feelings were finally starting to change around the whole idea of motherhood. In that post, I alluded to the fact that I’d never been baby hungry, and that though I knew that I eventually wanted to be a mom, I was …
