a lifestyle blog about motherhood, intention, whimsical moments, and wellness
steak & watermelon.
We are smitten over here.
It has been so nice to be home as a family (after bedrest and NICU) and to begin to see what a family of five will look like for us. Chris has been working like crazy so this past weekend we went to the park, we cut up watermelon, spent time outside, walked to the park and just enjoyed the cooler weather together.
We also started art classes at the studio this week and taking all three up there by myself has been quite the adventure!
Our little Apple has been as easy as pie so far though…she has transitioned right into our little family. The kids love her and her little spirit is quiet and gentle.
Somehow I already had forgotten how amazing it is to snuggle such a tiny little soul. She is precious and so loved.
So many times over the past two weeks I have looked at her sleeping in the night and thought “what is your story?”
She is such a huge part of my story already…but the truth is she has a whole story of her own just waiting for her.

Beautiful family. Thank you for allowing us into your beautiful life. <3
i love how you capture your daily lives, friend – so candid and beautiful. love you!
Transitioning to a family of 5 was surprisingly easier than to 3 or 4…hope it is for your sweet family as well! Rejoicing with you that you all get to be together <3
Your three babies are so beautiful…and what a wonderful thought that sweet Apple has her whole life story ahead of her … it's a nice reminder that we all do. God bless you. xoxo
I love how you make everyday life seem like so much fun! I hope you are enjoying your sweet babies. They are such a gift.

Beautiful photos casey, apple looks like she is right where she belongs:) The shot of chris with apple is my favorite, what an incredible moment!
You have such a beautiful family! I have been following your blog for some time now, but only get around to commenting every so often. Love the pics you post. I particularly loved your Ground Round shirt. I used to go there with my grandma all the time. I have such fond memories of taking the bus to the mall and walking to the Ground Round in the mall parking lot =)
Your faith and perseverance inspires me…thank you for sharing it with all of us!

I love the 1Samual poster!!!!
Love these. 🙂
the samuel poster is great–christmas card great.
Momma take care of yourself…
the story of being a mom put into words perfectly – they are already so much a part of our story but just beginning theirs. and our job to help them tell it. thanks Casey
sweet casey, you and chris have such a eye for capturing such special moments in your home. these are my favorite post that you do… even the shot of something on the floor or chris feeding aiden, i just adore it all. thank you for being such a light to this dark world. you are walking out in your calling, mama!
I ADORE that blanket. I wish I could buy one but I have way more baby blankets than anyone can ever need but I'm definitely bookmarking that shop for future baby shower presents 🙂
Oh sweet babies! I'm 22 weeks pregnant with our second little boy and totally ga-ga over all things baby right now! I really need to invest in a good camera so we can have photos like this – so beautiful!
Stopping by via Travel Babbles, saw your ad there and it reminded me to catch up with you! I used to read your blog but kind of fell out of touch with bloggyland for a bit!
I'm so excited for your little family! Love seeing all the pics of baby Apple! And that sign brought tears to my eyes.
Good to see a peace in your home again, amazing how blogging allows you to feel relieved to see a persons life settle, to worry and to care for them and their family.:)Thanks for sharing your little family and even the times of stress and how you've made it through, its encouraging!!
Reading this post makes me so happy for you little Mama 🙂 Your babies are precious as always and I'm at peace knowing that things have been much easier for you lately. Enjoy all the snuggles and cuddles with your babies. Love you friend Xo
My heart is so happy for you:)
Best wishes to you and your family! beautiful pictures!

That sign, I don't know what but because of how personal and intimate it is, it really really speaks to me. "The Lord has granted me what I asked of." That's SO beautiful! I don't know what it is and it's frustrating but AH I just feel it deep inside of me. Praise Him, our glorious Father.
ThankYou HAD me at:
~"what is your story?" She is such a huge part of my story already…but the truth is she has a whole story of her own just waiting for her. ~
You see we have three grown daughters now, one lives close to us, and one left in July for missionary work for two years in Vienna Austria and the youngest left today for California….we need to let them go, it is hard for me but when I read your words…What is your story…she has a whole story waiting for her…well I could have written those words myself.
Thank you sweetie for sharing your love and a bit of your life with us. Blessings, Melody
I love the words that you wrote in this post
What an adorable family you have and such darling pictures. Glad you're all doing well.
