In 2018 I was skipping Mother’s Day church because it was my third one without a baby in my arms I so desperately wanted. And now 3 years later my arms are definitely full. 💛 I am eternally grateful for the chance to be a mother and the lesson of patience I was taught while waiting for my babies. For those who are just trying to survive the day, I hope you know you’re loved! Happy Mother’s Day to all the women who have influenced my life!

I am a collector of lists. I collect exciting idea

Just a mom standing here tickling and pushing her daughter on a swing for hours and hours. And then pushing really hard and walking off to sit on her phone. It’s all about balance right? Either way, Hazel’s in a swing so she’s happy 😉. You know where we’ll be this summer! #52project #candidchildhood #letthembelittle

7 years, 5 homes, 3 cities, and 2 babies later, and still head over heels for this guy. Ryan is my forever best friend who has seen me at my best and worst and loves me unconditionally. Wouldn’t do life with anyone else! Happy anniversary @ryanrucker37 🤍

And just like that our sweet baby James is half a year old! Six months with this amazing smiley happy boy and we all adore him to the moon and back! He is ALWAYS smiling, and if you glance in his direction, he will shriek and shiver with delight because he got attention (second child much? 😅). He loves holding his bottle and feeding himself and is starting to sit up. He sleeps through the night and naps in his car seat. Now do you get why we call him “the perfect child”? 😉 Hazel loves patting his head and giving him a toy when he’s sad and he is a perfect fit in our family! ✨ #jamesryangrew

I’m 100% serious when I say I put this shirt on

I’m 100% serious when I say I put this shirt on today having no idea it was Earth Day. When I found out, I grabbed the 4T shirt I bought Hazel for later and we had to get a photo to celebrate #Earthday! I am so incredibly grateful for this world God created for us and I want to teach my children how to be stewards over this beautiful Earth. And it all starts at home...the home garden that is! I’ve got tons to learn, but we enjoy the family time harvesting microgreens, watering the front garden, and hopefully soon eating the vegetables we grow! #happyearthday 🌎 *Check my stories for a few ways we try to be stewards of the earth, I challenge you to give one of them a try! Comment below on what you do to show God your love for His gift of the world — I love ideas!

Another weekend , another creative project! Making

Another weekend , another creative project! Making 6 of these Nordic Himmeli brass ornaments to put on our future Christmas tree and am literally obsessed with this design. Thank you @thecraftersbox (and @hemleva) for introducing me to so many amazing mediums I would have never previously tried or even known about! #thecraftersbox
