Get involved in a BIG MISSION!

You may or may not remember but last month, I shared about how growing up on the field was very important to our little family. As parents now, we see the world through a slightly different lens. Because of this, we have teamed up with Stonyfield to help spread the word about StonyFIELDS' biggest MISSION yet--making every field in America ORGANIC by stopping the use of harmful pesticides o[...]

5 Was To Teach Kids Healthy Habits

“This post is sponsored by Smart Family Nutrition.” This past week we introduced "time out" to Little Kevin. We weren't sure if we thought he was ready and we couldn't exactly remember when we first started with Brooke, but we decided to try it. He got in trouble, I told him he had to go to time out. He walked over to time out, sat down and faced the wall. He occasionally turned his h[...]

The Interceramic Experience: Tips For Choosing Your Home Tile

Most of you know (unless you are new here), that we are currently building a custom home in the Houston, Texas area. Kevin and I got to experience a small aspect of adding in custom finishes in our last home, however, starting completely from scratch has been a whole new ball game for us.

5 Ways to Thrive in the Chaos of Motherhood

Listen, I am a TYPE A mom of 2. Before kids, I was extremely organized. I thrived on efficiency and my to do list. I cleaned our house every week to every other week. Everything had a place and it was ALWAYS in its place. So needless to say, I'm a slight perfectionist. Two kids = straight CHAOS. Being a mom has come with its fair share of adjustments from never getting to pee alone again t[...]

I was inspired by the movie release of Mam[...]

October 2018 Stitch Fix Review

My September 2018 Stitch Fix was so great! Seriously, my best tip for Stitch Fix is to stay with the same stylist so they can learn your style. I have been with the same stylist for so long and she just gets me. Almost every box is a "OMG I'm gonna break the bank and keep all five type of deal..." So, for any newbies, let me break down what Stitch Fix is really quick. Stitch Fix deliver[...]

Clarke Residence Update #4

Gosh, another month down, another month closer to move in! It is starting to get so real. We have been in this process for over a year now, so it is still so surreal to see it all come to life. This month, our A/C, electrical and plumbing for inside the walls was finished up, foam insulation went in, drywall was installed, our fireplace was installed, inside doors were ordered and delivere[...]

When You Feel Like You’re Failing As A Mom

Gosh mamas, sometimes it just seeps in and controls your thoughts. I know for me, the past few weeks, I have really been battling with mom worry. I can't tell you how many nights I have turned to Kevin and just said I can't shut off my mind. I'm second guessing my conversations with Brooke, or how we are parenting in certain aspects. In these moments, I am incredibly thankful for my "rock"[...]
