When designing a kid’s room, I’ve always aimed

When designing a kid’s room, I’ve always aimed for a scheme versus a theme. For E2 room, we wanted something super girly since these girls love embracing their femininity, without getting into characters or something they’d outgrow. I was inspired to be bolder in their room with mixing patterns and colors to achieve an element of added fun and youthfulness. Check out the blog for all resources!

Want to know the secret to doing it all? It’s si

Want to know the secret to doing it all?
It’s simple.

You don’t.
Anyone who tells you they have it all together is lying, or has a ton of help.

Don’t beat yourself up thinking you should have it together more or accomplish more than you do, that you should have a neater house and more accolades while maintaining the perfect physique while growing your relationship with God…. Oh and don’t forget to stay on top of your relationships and volunteering! And invest your money, and invest in yourself, and donate too. And take time for yourself and have some hobbies! And you must drink enough water and get enough sleep. Not to mention make sure the kids are well fed and rested and have an appropriate amount of extracurriculars and friendships also.

Life is just plain crazy sometimes. Don’t think that everyone has it all together and you’re missing something! The truth is that we’re all trying. Life is hard and fast and there are so many moving parts. Keep your eyes on Him, work hard, and put others first. The rest will fall into place!

Happy birthday to this handsome guy right here 😍 @dfergesen, you are the man of my dreams. You have such great character and are willing to stand up for what’s right. You make me laugh, feel safe, and do the hard work to raise these kids up well. I could go on and on…. Just so thankful for you and thankful you’re mine! Hope you have the best birthday 🥳

You know you’re an adult when you look forward to the weekend… to get the house fully cleaned 😆 the kids were asking why we haven’t decorated the house in spooky/gruesome Halloween decor, so I was trying to explain my stance on decorating for the season and not a holiday 😆 what decorating camp are you in? Also this skirt is on sale (swipe to the third picture for a better shot of it!). Happy weekend everyone!

Our bedroom is slowly coming together! Dustin finished hanging our chandelier this week and I’m all 😍 My bed is on sale if you’ve been waiting 🙌🏼 I just ordered some samples for Roman shades, and we just need a little more art on the walls. I’m thrilled at the progress!
Feels like home.

I forgot how humbling the newborn stage is 😅 between pickup and dropoff for the 4 big kids, extracurriculars, and general newborn care, all while being exhausted from being up all night, there just isn’t room for anything else. House projects have come to a halt (if I’m being honest, cleaning has too 😆), schedules criticized for what can really be removed, and priorities have been shifted as much as possible.
I’ve spent my middle of the night feedings compiling a list of my favorite newborn and postpartum gear that has been super helpful with this season! If you’re pregnant or know someone who is, check out the blog for my real life picks. If you’re a seasoned pro, share with me your favorites!

The teenager at the ice cream stand complimented my outfit so my awkward postpartum self felt all 💁🏼‍♀️ I wore this number for our anniversary a couple weeks ago and I’m obsessed! I wasn’t sure if Piper would be ready for me to leave her, so I ordered the two piece version of this outfit (which I absolutely love, breastfeeding aside!). It also comes in an adorable dress also. I linked both. Follow me on @shop.ltk for details, or click here http://liketk.it/3p4qY

God works everything for good. This morning we we

God works everything for good.
This morning we were discussing choosing joy even when it doesn’t make sense. Even when life is hard and it just plain hurts and we just want to throw a fit and be sad. I was explaining how God can use even those times, and Elliott chimes in and says “like you!” When I asked what she meant, she said she had prayed for so long for a family like ours, with lots of people to play with. I nearly broke down. She’s so right. We all went through some really hard stuff to get to where we are today. And it doesn’t mean life is all of a sudden easy or perfect, but it does show how good God is. How He answers prayer, how He knows the desires of our hearts.

No matter where you are in life, know that God does have a plan. You will make it past the valley and you will find your mountaintop. God never promised our paths would be easy, but He did promise that He would be sovereign over it all.

I’d love if you shared how God has redeemed your pain! Or if you are stuck in the valley, share below so we can pray for you.
