It’s only been about 2 months but I’m finally getting around to writing about our camping trip this past October. My husband and I have always wanted to take the kids camping since we both grew up having a fun time traveling and camping with our families. This year was the first time we could […]
Our oldest, Genevieve, turned 5 last week. Insert the usual I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE IS ALREADY FIVE here. I have always said I was going to write down her birth story somewhere since it was so shocking to everyone involved so here I am finally getting to it. If you have read any of my […]
I did a thing, y’all. SHOP HERE! Well, really, I just decided to sign up to become an affiliate for an awesome company so that other people could experience their awesomeness as well. As many of you know, I am very much an advocate of natural medicine which is why I started Matties Medicinals. Don’t […]
I was going to blame her for the 3 month-long blogging hiatus since the end of pregnancy and the newborn days are hard but the truth is it is really hard to get pictures organized and uploaded here to my website. It is sooo much easier to just post pictures straight from my phone to […]

This year he decided to leave the stress of his full-time job and open his automotive business full-time! March 4 was the first day Matties Auto Repair opened for regular business hours. We […]
Spring is almost here! Just a few days until the official start of spring and I can’t wait! I think spring is my favorite season, especially this year since it has been cold for so long. Usually, here in Texas, it is warmer much earlier, but this year it seems like winter has lasted forever. […]
On February 1st, we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary. I can’t believe it’s already been that long but then at the same time, I’m wondering how it’s only been that long, haha. A few weeks after our actual anniversary and a few days after our youngest’s first birthday, we left the kids and boarded the […]
As I am sure everyone has heard by now, last week on the 46th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, New York’s governor, Andrew Cuomo, signed the Reproductive Health Act into law.
