Tough day? Monday got the best of you? Need a little pick-me-up? Well, I have the perfect amount of love-bug-squish that's stronger than any triple shot espresso. Enter: a few selects from Quinn's newborn shoot with Laura Parker Photography (I'm saving most of them to keep 'em personal and to share with family and friends). Oh, and if you need me, I'll be in the corner trying to sop up my pool of "oh-my-god-i-love-you-so-much" tears while simultaneously trying to figure out how to ...
A look at life, as told through a sweaty blogger's point of view.
Welcome, Quinn Jeffery Williams.
On Monday, July 17, 2017, at 4:53 p.m., our lives forever changed as we welcomed Quinn Jeffery Williams into the world.

Slippers: Their usage is obvious, but the tip I received was to get some cheap, open-back slippers that you can easily get on and off, and then trash ...
A Future Worth Anticipating
Adapted Art Via David Powell Anticipating the future has been called a fruitless endeavor. In doing so, you can forget to live in the present, embrace life as it’s happening, and suck up everything that it has to offer. Despite being with my husband for over 13 years now (married for almost 6), I put off getting pregnant for so long, thinking that it would be the demise of both my physical and emotional essence, and that “future” was something that would just have to wait. I knew that I ...
Make Some Waves — Nursery Reveal
When you live in the Bay Area, ample living space is not a given. It's a luxury. And you better be willing to pay even more outrageous rent amounts if you want a slice of it. So it almost goes without saying that we don't have much space and I dream of the day when we can buy a house and roll around in a plush backyard.
