As October draws to a close and the air turns crisp, we find ourselves on the brink of the entire holiday season. It’s a time when kids dream up big ideas and the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary, and when memories are crafted in the homes of friends and family. Celebrating Your Role in the […]

Heres to the magic makers

Here at NOW we LOVE pajamas and take them very seriously. Kimberly and I have often talked pajamas and not only do we love them for ourselves but we love them for our kiddos too. We have also had a lot of giggles over the number of pajamas my girls have owned over the years, […]

Pajama Party!!

This time of year always seems to be jam packed with change. This year has been particularly so for my family with a child starting college. Since its football season, we will use that analogy. Tip off starts in August for us with the start of a new school year. August always feels like the […]

Routine in the midst of change

Recently Sarah shared a podcast with me from the Raising Boys and Girls Podcast with hosts Sissy Goff and David Thomas. The guest that day was Kelly Corrigan. I honestly did not know who Kelly Corrigan was, but you can find her here. The whole conversation was fascinating from the dried carrots and hummus to […]

Tell Me More, What Else, Go on

It’s that time of year again when the schedules change, routines shift, the days begin to shorten, and the holidays will roll one after the other. Summer definitely has a sense of slower carefree days but school has begun so buckle up. How do you feel about school? Do you love the routine again? Or […]

My third baby just celebrated her 4th birthday on July 2. Her birthday is most memorable to me for some reason. I mean, all births are memorable in some ways, but due to her 3 day saga of roller coaster labor amidst the year of Covid, I have to say she was one for the […]

40 Weeks and 3 Days 

I was sitting on the toilet trying to poop the other day and my baby aka 2 yr old was puny and clingy with a weird virus. She stood there crying at my feet because at any instant I began to lower her to the ground she would start crying.  Inevitably I picked her up […]

Vulnerability in Motherhood 

Summer time…begins this weekend for us. The classic Memorial Day weekend. School is out and summer time vibes are in the air. The days are getting longer, bed time is getting later, and we are all sweating and swatting at bugs a little bit more. Are you team summer? I personally love all the seasons […]

Team Summer

“Raising people is not some lark, its serious work with serious repercussions.  Its air traffic control. You can’t step out for a minute, you can barely pause to scratch your ankle.” – Kelly Corrigan As we draw to the end of another school year and I am about to graduate my second child, I’ve been […]
