The fall of 2018 kind of rocked our world. We were just coming off the news that Milo suffers from allergies and asthma but we had known about his problem for awhile.

One that affects millions of people and one that, for me, hits close to home. WALK MS: A PERSONAL STORY I am one of those millions…
It has been a busy couple of weeks! Sometimes everything can go by so fast and its all a blur! As I sit here tonight alone, Erik is gone and the kids are all in bed, I am running a recap of the last week in my mind. Before I know it another weekend will be in the books and the little moments will be forgotten! Here is a quick recap of some of the…
We got some quick, new family pictures taken and I am so excited! I wish I had the chance to take these more often because our family changes so much! But unfortunately time is not on our side and our crazy life gets away from us! And let me tell you…as many of you other mama’s know…taking a decent photo of a moody toddler is not an easy task!
