Well, we officially have a walker on our hands! I feel like in just a handful of days our lives changed drastically. Nora is on the move and into everything about ten times faster than she ever was. So, the day to day is exciting, but a little bit exhausting. By the end of the […]

Little Hands & Lingering Autumn
Sweet November has rolled around, very quickly I might add. October was a busy one for us, but definitely in the best way. So much time spent with family and friends After Halloween, I love to lean into that wholesome autumn warmth. We keep the pumpkins out, dream up some apple pie designs, and prepare […]
Simple Spookiness & Wholesome Weekends
Ahh, Halloween has made its way to our little house. Little signs of spookiness here and there. Nothing too grand, but a simple nod to the season is what I’m all about. We stopped at a teeny tiny local farm one afternoon for a pumpkin to carve. The weather felt like summer but we were […]
Pumpkin Play & Autumn Days
Before I really let myself get into Halloween decorating, I like to first try to just add some touches of fall. Sweet little pumpkins around the house do the trick. Nora helped me pick out a few out at the store, they’re just the perfect little size for her hands! So, we placed them throughout […]
A Busy Bee & Baby Gates
It seems like over the course of a week we went from Nora just getting good at cruising to now not being able to leave her anywhere for too long! She is on the go! Still cruising along everything around her, and I think in a few weeks she’ll be walking on her own. Needless […]
Fall Capsule for Nora Bear
So very happy with Nora’s fall/winter capsule for the year. Pictured above are most of the items, not including one other peplum onesie, a few pajamas, tights, socks, and her shoes. Now that we’re nearing toddlerhood, we were in desperate need of some new clothes for the colder weather. But I have to be really […]
Snickerdoodles & Slowing Down
September is one of my favorite times of the year. We really start to gear up for all the fun holidays to come, and there’s a peace about a summer well spent. And I waste no opportunity to throw a batch of snickerdoodles in the oven. Dillon and I have been busy tackling some house […]
Simple Mornings & Summertime Farewells
I’ve really sunk into our morning routines around here- Nora cuddles, make bed, get dressed, make coffee, tidy up, get breakfast going, and plan out the day while eating. And while that seems like a pretty packed list, it’s actually a slow and simple way to start each day. I’m definitely a creature of habit […]
Door County
We closed out our summer with a weekend trip up to Door County. It’s long since been a favorite location for us, and bringing Nora along made it even better. Beach trips, breweries, and bopping around the little shops in town were how we spent most of our days. Can’t wait to head back!
Shadow Dances & Mirror Glances
Nora has really found her reflection these days. I often find her stealing glances and giggles, sharing toys, waving, and giving kisses to that other little “baby” in the mirror. It’s one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen. Days with her have gotten increasingly more adorable and more exciting. She’s cruising on furniture, opening […]
