Spending the day with these precious souls. ✨ Let’s get y’all married!
Our precious girl made her arrival three weeks ago today and we are absolutely in LOVE. So thankful for a smooth delivery and time to bond and cuddle this beautiful bundle of joy. 💕
And just like that, I’m on maternity leave!

Getting so excited to welcome our precious girl into the world in the near future. Please send all the good energy, positive thoughts, and valiant vibes our way! 🤰🏼✨
These two humans are going to be amazing parents! 🥹❤️✨
Waking up to a little snow this morning has me wanting some hot chocolate and snuggles. 🥰☕️

I’m catching up on all the editing and tax stuff this week and the next, and then planning on going on a little maternity leave starting the week of M
Happy day of love, everyone! 💘

We’re spending this year’s Valentine’s Day laying low - playing the new Harry Potter game together, ordering DoorDash, noshing on chocolate dipped strawberries and grapes, and snuggling the pups. 💕
Anyone else just really ready for the leaves to be green and lush again? 🌳🌱🌿🍃
So excited for these precious, giggly angels to get married in a couple months! ❤️
Living for this precious moment. 😌 

(And peep Alex’s wedding nails for Halloween! 👀👻 How freaking cute?!)
Trying to get back in my groove this week, but kinda struggling. 😅 How do you all get your New Year motivation back? The overwhelm is real, y’all.
