I have the MOST FUN any time I’m in front of Michelle’s camera. She is so fun to hang out with and it ends up being the best girl time + hair and makeup! Y’all know I have 4 kids and I work from home.. I don’t get to feel fancy very often! If you like laughing until your cheeks hurt (your face cheeks) and feeling 🔥 - book a shoot with her! 10/10 highly recommend.

Thank goodness for spring. 🌸 2026 has been kin Thank goodness for spring. 🌸

2026 has been kind of a weird, wild ride so far, but full of good things. I started a new job! And that has taken up a lot of my time (in a good way), so I’ve been a little bit quiet around here.

I’m trying as hard as I can to prioritize myself more these days. Finally went to the doctor and did some blood work. Turns out, I’m severely anemic. I’m hoping I’ll start feeling better and little more awake after I start my iron. 😅 Maybe I can lay off the coffee a little bit. (J/k)

I can’t believe it’s almost April after we went through 3 years of January, but I’m not mad about it! Ready to relax outside on patios with family/friends and enjoy our kiddos running around. We made it. 🖤

And he said this to his social media loving picture taking wife who is finally feeling the sunlight on her face after months of seasonal depression. 🤪 Might just turn this into a Nate appreciation account. Stay tuned.😉

Oh, Change.


Circa March 2007

I started to look through my Flickr today. I’ve had the same account since 2007 and it’s amazing to see how much I have changed in just a few short years. Just take a look at this picture!


December 2007

And, I’m not just talking about my hair. I can see it in my face. It’s just strange!

I still fit in these jeans- so I guess that’s a good sign. However, I remember them being comfortable in that picture- with no stomach pooching over. And now? I kind of have to step in them, jump up and down a lot, and then suck in real hard while using all my might to button them. Then, I wear a poofy non-conforming shirt. LOL- and that might be why I overheard someone at work discussing whether or not I LOOK PREGNANT. *shakes fist* And don’t get me wrong- I’m well aware that I am not fat. If you start yelling at me about this I’ll punch you in the face (in my mind). It’s just the change from a tiny little unshapely teenage body into a more womanly “curvy” body (but I’m not unhappy that my boobs have grown, mind you). It’s just different and I have sort of a love/hate relationship with all of it. And when I have babies I will look back nostalgically at pictures of my current body.. what a vicious cycle. =)

    Yeah, it is interesting how we change from years to years but I think sometimes become more accepting of our bodies as we grow up. I know I was a lot thinner in 2005…but I’m more accepting of my body as is now…

    Anyway, you always look adorable to me!

    oh stephanie! i can relate. i went through that "phase" in my 20s…but i kicked some butt and now i'm in better shape than ever and i'm almost 35. btw, you are tiny and perfect and beautiful, so don't even worry about the jeans thing! 😉 and if you do- there is nothing wrong with keeping your core strong and stable- i love pilates and yoga because it keeps me strong and balanced. if you plan on having babies in the future i recommend it because of all the lifting you will be doing and you do NOT want to throw out your back. the *bonus* will be a flat tummy.
