Happy Hump Day

We found out yesterday that we’ve finally been approved to volunteer at Quincy’s school—and might I just say—it’s about dang time!

Quincy’s Almost-Nine, and I’m Almost in Denial

Y’all. Quincy turns NINE on Monday. Nine! I genuinely don’t understand how that’s possible. I swear he was just sitting in a high chair eating puffs and making dinosaur noises last week. Now he’s correcting my math and giving me opinions on my TikToks. (Excuse me, sir, I’m the influencer here.) Anyway, his big birthday wish this year is […]

October’s Almost Over… and I Still Haven’t Made It to a Pumpkin Patch

How is October already almost over? I swear I blinked and went from “it’s finally fall” to “grab the turkey platter.” And somehow, I still haven’t made it to a real pumpkin patch. Not the grocery store parking lot kind with a few sad pumpkins, or the cute little man-made one we saw at St. […]
