I need to start this off by saying, I’m feeling really sophisticated right about now. As I went to plate up my Thanksgiving day contribution, I was super excited that I had a beautiful plate to display my creation! No boring dish for me this year… nope! I used SlatePlate!! 🙂 Even as I was carrying…

#aSIMPLEchristmas present with meaning :: giveaway
The Word of God is the most precious thing in the world to me. It is uplifting. It is empowering. It is encouraging. It is admonishing. It helps you to grow. It guides/directs you. It give you hope for the future. What’s better than having the knowledge of God fill my mind daily? Having the opportunity to…
#aSIMPLEchristmas give the gift of happy play with hoppibox
Subscription boxes seem to be the “hot thing” these days. From personal shavers to dog toys, it seems you can subscribe to just about anything! The reason subscription boxes are so awesome? Because you can sign up for them, forget about them and then get surprised every month with something new on your doorstep. As…
#aSIMPLEchristmas the perfect gift for new and expecting moms
If you had asked me several years ago what I thought I needed as a new mom, I probably would have listed things like a crib, blankets, bottles, etc. I could laugh right now at how naive I was… Boy how things change! When I found out I was expecting our second child, I immediately…

be protected with belly armor
As I sit here typing on my computer, I can’t help but smile. My computer is slowly moving further and further out of reach as my belly grows bigger and bigger. The little life growing inside of me is wiggling around, reminding me that they are here and that I will be holding this little…

Any pregnant women in the house?!? With a bun in the oven, some mamas may feel like they are missing out on a few of the “finer” things in life… like sharing a glass of wine with your girlfriends, especially around the holidays! So this upcoming holiday season as your friends raise a toast to the…
raising “strong and kind” children :: korie roberston :: giveaway
Quack… Quack! The name Korie Robertson may be a familiar name to you. She is the wife of Willie Robertson from the television show Duck Dynasty. Not only is the Robertson Family known for the seemingly “rags to riches” story, but they are also known for their strong faith in God. I was excited when…
grace and stella give you smooth feet
Most people think that pedicures are for summer. You know… cute sandals with bright toenail polish and perfectly smooth feet. But what about winter?? I absolutely can NOT stand trying to put my feet into socks and feeling those nasty calluses and cracked dry soles catching on the fibers. YUCK!! It gives me shudders just…
maty’s health and yours!
A mother’s love… Has there ever been a better motivation? A mother’s love will drive a woman to do the unthinkable. To question all logic. To dig deeper than anyone would ever expect someone to go. To go to lengths that seem physically impossible. The will to protect their child… that is the bond that ties…
petit coulou keeps you on the run
Do we have any runners in the house? Yeah… me neither! haha… In all seriousness though, do you enjoy going for a walk, jog, or run with your little one? Being outside is my favorite thing! With fall upon us, I have this panicked feeling about being stuck inside with 3 feet of snow out…
