Spring Seed Exchange

Two Month Update
Around the second month Lance and I slowly started getting the hang of things with Levi. He was sleeping really good (we always needed to wake him up for feedings), breast feeding was going well, we had some visitors stop by, and I finally felt like I could do some things for myself. At the [...]

My First Trimester
This pregnancy has flown by so far! I’m already 22 weeks along, so I wanted to start documenting it before it’s over. My friend Megan took these pictures when Lance and I first found out I was pregnant. I’m so glad she was able to capture this sweet moment for us.
Our Wedding Menu and Food Tasting Experience
Let's be honest...choosing our wedding menu was my favorite part of wedding planning so far! You guys know I looove food, so I couldn't wait to pick out the appetizers, salad, dinner and wedding cake with Lance. We had our tasting a couple of weeks ago at the Lake Placid Lodge, where our reception will be [...]
