Happy Monday, friends! I’m coming at ya with my very first book review this morning! I’m a MAJOR bookworm of both christian and non-christian books and would love to share some of my favorites with you! It is my goal to share a book that I have read recently (or reread.. Anyone else love to do that??) once a month so you can add to your library!

I guess we must look like we’ve been married for a decent amount of time because lately we keep getting asked from newly engaged or married friends what our number one marriage advice would be. I think we would have both said different things over the last few years, but for once we are 100% confident and on the same page about what that advice should be.

This is not just for mamas in the room. Maybe you’re a college kid or you work from home. Maybe you’re an empty nester or you only work outside of the house a few days a week. The grunge life may work for you, but it did not work for me. My house was falling apart, my quiet times were almost nonexistent, and my self worth was going down the toilet.

The past 365 days have been the most treasured of my life and celebrating her BIG today was no question.

Many of you may not be interested in birth stories, but a fellow mom once told me that there is a small mom audience out there that loves this stuff and I couldn't agree more! I personally LOVE reading birth stories! Is that weird? I joke with my OB that I should have gone into that field because I think birth is amazing and got slightly obsessed with it for a short time. Don't judge.

There is something so refreshing about a new year. It feels like anything is possible... or at least it does for the first few days. I don't know about you, but I am REALLY great at making goals. Like I could be a professional goal maker. But following through with those goals? That's a different story. You should see my resolutions from last year. I was 11 days shy of having our baby girl and apparently thought I'd be conquering the world while also taking on motherhood. If I wasn't so embarrassed I'd post a picture of the list I wrote. Seriously laughable.
