A letter to my husband.
To my husband, I want you to know that our life wont always be the imperfectly perfect chaos it is now. We won’t always be woken throughout the night by our sleepless toddler and baby cries. We won’t always be interrupted by an inquisitive three year old asking us why and how multiple times a […]

Because sometimes babies don’t sleep
Sleep was a constant thought on my mind until Parker turned one. Why isn’t he sleeping? How can I get him to sleep through? And what am I doing wrong? Classic. Before I had Parker, I had read every book about babies. Heck, I had been reading them since I was 18. So I knew […]
