Somewhere between Waylen's birth and now I've become known as the "Donut Girl." Instead of shying away from such a sugary nickname I've decided to embrace it. Glazed, sprinkled, filled, holed, donuts for breakfast, dessert, I'm pretty much an expert on donuts so I've decided to put together a list of my favorite fun non-edible… Continue reading Donuts Donuts Donuts

Waylen’s Wardrobe

So pretty much Waylen is now the most fashionable person in my household. Do I still enjoy buying clothing for myself? Uhhh yeah, but 1) tiny clothes are SO MUCH CUTER and 2) to be honest my ‘mom uniform’ is pretty much just a t-shirt and jeans these days. Lately everyone has been asking where… Continue reading Waylen’s Wardrobe
