I shared with y’all on Instagram the other month that we’ve unfortunately been dealing with a food allergy for Bridget. I am sharing our story in hopes of 1. helping spread knowledge in recognizing if your little one is suffering from one and you don’t realize it. Sometimes it can be super noticeable and sometimes not so much. The quicker you are aware of…

Cue Brad Paisley, “Letter to Me.” Side note: (double side note: can you even have a side note, let alone a double side note this early on before you even get to the point?!) In that song there is a lyric that says, “…And when you get a date with Bridget, make sure the tank is full. On second thought, forget it, that one…
This is personal. A little over 3.5 years ago I started a blog. My ideas and dreams for it morphed multiple times before I originally even launched it and have been morphing ever since. First, it was going to be a behind-the-scenes football wives lives video series. How we live a healthy lifestyle, while supporting our men through their unique dream jobs, etc etc.…
Looking for the perfect winter soup recipe that’s packed with protein (not to mention vegan, vegetarian – all that jazz)? Well, here you go, friends! Enjoy! xoxo Jacqui INGREDIENTS 1/2 ounce dried wild mushrooms (I’ve also used shitake multiple times and it works & tastes delish still, but I prefer wild if you can grab those).…
*I wrote 99% of this post while I was on bedrest during my preterm labor scare. I now have a healthy, happy, strong, perfect baby girl in my arms. Despite the scary situation, I made it to full term with my pregnancy. A matter of fact, I delivered at 38 weeks and 2 days. (aka 1 week and 2 days after what…
Say that ten times fast. For years I made these for Drew to bring for the team to enjoy during meetings each Cardinals game before Halloween. If it was an away game, you better believe they were going on the plane, and gone before they landed. Needless to say they’re delicious and you should absolutely make them this fall season. Message me or tag me…
(SETTING INTENTIONS: MOM STYLE) Let’s talk intentions. If you ask Drew my word of the year, he will spit out intentional in a heartbeat. INTENTION: (NOUN): A DETERMINATION TO ACT IN A CERTAIN WAY. SIGNIFICANCE. PURPOSE WITH RESPECT. Everyone needs to be intentional. Speak with intention. Act with intention. But, I think we often forget how to be intentional with our time. We get lazy…
Here are my can’t live without baby items we’ve used during Bridget’s first three months of the newborn stage! It can be so difficult being thrown into the newborn world of baby must-haves, so I hope this helps you! xoxo SLEEP DockATot Deluxe+ Extra Dock A Tot Covers – The DockATot Deluxe+ comes with a cover included. You…
Well y’all, I did it. I officially went ONE FULL YEAR WITHOUT A SIP OF CAFFEINE. Yes, I went the first (and hardest) sleepless months of the newborn stage without any coffee, green tea, you name it – I didn’t have it. This is the second time I’ve really cut caffeine out of my diet. My first time was after…
BIRTH PLAN, EPIDURAL, CORD BLOOD & MORE. Let’s make it very clear right off the bat I am NOT a doctor providing medical advice or some amazing expert in childbirth. (Although, every mom out there totally deserves to feel like superwoman after birthing a child, so high fives to all of you and know you ARE an expert in YOUR story!) …
