There is a reason that sleep deprivation is used as torture. Because it is. Many moms will toast their tenth cup of coffee and insist that being a mom means “you will never sleep again.” A permanent zombie. But, not for me. Emotionally and physically worn out, sure.

And I knew it was possible. Being a mom means a lot of ... View the Post

As I tried to sort through this past year, I realized that everything that happened in 2016 feels like it just happened. I think as we get older, the years really do go more quickly. Some days, I'm thankful for that, but most days I want time to slow down. This year was nothing short of a blur. Check out our VERY condensed year in review! January I was 24 weeks pregnant and likely lying ... View the Post
