I know you’re probably reading this title and thinking, well, duh! And I suppose you’re right.

Instagram Musings: Postpartum Belly
View this post on Instagram “Mommy, why is your tummy still big after the baby came out?” A few years ago I would have crumbled at this question but I’m in a much different place now. The stomach I used to hate is now a badge of honor. It has given me the gift of…
Whose Thoughts Are You Thinking?
About a week ago I won an award in my industry. It was really exciting, especially since I didn’t expect to win it. It was my first night out since having the baby so I wanted to glam out whether I won or not. I had fun doing something different with my hair, popping on…

It’s almost time for the Austin City Limits festival again. Last year was my first time going and I had a blast. I can’t believe how fast this year has gone by but I am excited to say that I will be attending ACL again this year. I don’t know how I’m going to pull…
It Finally Happened!
