  • Scissortail Park South

    Scissortail Park South

    I randomly read on Reddit that Scissortail South had opened last week so Ben and I decided to pack up the little babe and check it out. MAPS has done such AWESOME things for Oklahoma City, it’s kind of unreal. I was very impressed with how clean the bathrooms were and the amenities surrounding the…

    I’m On A Boat

    For Labor Day weekend we drove down to Texas to then drive north again to lake Texoma.. only to end up on the water in Oklahoma. It was Tove’s first time on my parent’s boat, Red Wine & Bourbon. Tove did so well and enjoyed swimming in the water as well. She’s a water lover…

    11 months

    … + a few days. I didn’t have the energy or time to write this post last weekend but better late than never. Tove is 1 month shy of being a year old- holy crap. Time really does go by fast when you’re constantly watching your child grow before your eyes. Tove loves to walk…

  • The Old My

    The Old My

    I thought I had lost myself along the way with having a child and having changed my habits drastically in the last few years. Somehow I found a new My (me 😝) when Tove was born; A stronger, more confident woman. Traveling again and people watching has invigorated the old My. Not the bad habits…

    10 Months

    Tove has spent more time alive outside my womb than she did inside at this point and wow have I loved her journey so far. 16 pounds later, she’s somewhere in between nine month old clothing and one year old. She’s tall like her pappa but she’s also a skinny one. Tove is great at…

  • Vacation

    Vacation

    On Sunday I flew with Tove on her first ever flight to meet my parents in Florida. The first flight to Dallas from OKC wasn’t the best time, but we fared better on the second leg of our journey. Even though I had to change her diaper in the airplane toilet- that place is TINY.…

  • Feeling Some Type of Way

    Feeling Some Type of Way

    Current events had me starting my day very grateful for my health and my family. I shed many tears for the families that lost their loved ones due to gun violence recently. It gets harder every day to want to continue to live in America when it seems like all anyone ever wants to do…

  • Mini Me

    Mini Me

    I’ve been trying to teach Tove how to wear sunglasses and yesterday I finally got her to wear them for slightly longer than 15 seconds. Tove wore her sunglasses just long enough for Ben to snap a pic of us! She threw them on the ground the second we started walking though🤪

  • Routine Sunday

    Routine Sunday

    Every Sunday we try to clean the house and hit the grocery store to shop for the coming week. I’ve been getting better about cooking and it saves us so much money. Today, I was too lazy to clean buuuuut I did meal prep for little miss Tove. (also means I’ll be mopping the floors…

  • It’s Her Right

    It’s Her Right

    Tove and I went to the women’s protest at the state capitol here in Oklahoma City again today. If Roe vs. Wade gets overturned we have decided as a family to make a plan to leave this country. Hopefully by the time Tove is sexually active/menstruating I will have a resume that allows for me…
