One

My friend was so kind and took pictures of Aaron for his first birthday. They are absolutely perfect and capture his personality perfectly. 
I can't believe I have a toddler now. I can't believe how much he's grown over the past year. 
It's been so humbling and magical to watch him discover everything for the first time. This world can be a nasty place, but it can also be so beautiful. 
We're so blessed with Aaron. He has a pretty chill personality for the most part, and he sleeps like a champ. He's super giggly and smiley, but also contemplative. 


I can't believe he couldn't even hold up his neck, and now he's almost walking. 

He's my little twin and best friend. I never knew how special a relationship with a son can be.


He loves carbs, balls, wheels, going to Grandma's house, Taylor Swift, and his pacifiers. 


We've had so much support this last year and I'm so grateful for it. 

Every time I hold him, he grabs my hair or my shirt and while it hurts sometimes, I love it. 

He really loves his aunts and uncles. 






When I was at the doctor once, he reached up and held my hand from his stroller when I was feeling a little nervous. 


Before bed every night I tell Sammy that my heart hurts. It's with pure joy. Every night when Sammy gets home, Aaron is full of giggles and laughter. It's such a happy time, and the second he's asleep I miss him. He brings us so much joy.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...
