Style-less Ci.

This whole blogging game has really tripped me up lately. So many thoughts pass through my mind throughout the day as I scroll past dozen of bloggers from all over the place, all doing super similar stuff. What’s so special about me? What makes me think anyone would care enough to take the time and...

Ballin on Budget: 2

Ok so here is the deal, I have a little problem. Ever seen the movie confessions of a shopaholic? yeah that's me. I love to shop, or have retail therapy, whatever you want to call it. However since my husband is in nursing school, working full-time and we have two babies under three Mama has...

First born, precious one.

Lilly Grace: Where has our time gone? Finding out that I was pregnant with you was the worst news I could have possibly received, that moment my life changed in the blink of an eye. Sickness overwhelmed my entire body as I clung onto the words I had spoken or thought about other girls who...
