  • Scissortail Park South

    Scissortail Park South

    I randomly read on Reddit that Scissortail South had opened last week so Ben and I decided to pack up the little babe and check it out. MAPS has done such AWESOME things for Oklahoma City, it’s kind of unreal. I was very impressed with how clean the bathrooms were and the amenities surrounding the…

    I’m On A Boat

    For Labor Day weekend we drove down to Texas to then drive north again to lake Texoma.. only to end up on the water in Oklahoma. It was Tove’s first time on my parent’s boat, Red Wine & Bourbon. Tove did so well and enjoyed swimming in the water as well. She’s a water lover…

  • Vacation

    Vacation

    On Sunday I flew with Tove on her first ever flight to meet my parents in Florida. The first flight to Dallas from OKC wasn’t the best time, but we fared better on the second leg of our journey. Even though I had to change her diaper in the airplane toilet- that place is TINY.…

  • Mini Me

    Mini Me

    I’ve been trying to teach Tove how to wear sunglasses and yesterday I finally got her to wear them for slightly longer than 15 seconds. Tove wore her sunglasses just long enough for Ben to snap a pic of us! She threw them on the ground the second we started walking though🤪

  • It’s Her Right

    It’s Her Right

    Tove and I went to the women’s protest at the state capitol here in Oklahoma City again today. If Roe vs. Wade gets overturned we have decided as a family to make a plan to leave this country. Hopefully by the time Tove is sexually active/menstruating I will have a resume that allows for me…

  • Oklahoma State Capitol Abortion Ban Protest

    Oklahoma State Capitol Abortion Ban Protest

    Today, for my first Mother’s Day with Tove being outside of my womb, we went to an abortion ban protest at the state capitol. I can’t look into Tove’s eyes and tell her that she doesn’t have the same rights as a boy and that she doesn’t matter, because she does. There were about 50-60…

  • 9 Months

    9 Months

    This post is a day late but Tove was extra fussy and stayed up an hour past her bedtime last night. I’m pretty sure I start every monthly post off the same way, “man it’s a wild ride..” but for real watching a little human who grew inside of you find her way in the…

  • Saturday Floor Gang

    Saturday Floor Gang

    This little cutie has been loving tummy time after months of complaints to the floor managers 😝 She’s finally starting to army crawl and loves to play with Tex and his toys 🧸

  • Bricktown Canal

    Bricktown Canal

    Ben and I took Tove to Bricktown yesterday afternoon and took a stroll around the canal. A bit windy like always but the spring weather was quite nice! We stopped at Heyday for a refresher and thought we lost Tove’s pacifier for a good second. ALAS it was under her stroller and we were all…

  • Syrup.

    Syrup.

    Ben’s off work today, which isn’t the usual so we decided to go out for brunch. We packed up little lady and drove down to Main St. in Norman. I let Ben decide between Neighborhood Jam and Syrup and he chose the latter! Tove enjoyed her banana stick while mom and dad got to eat.…
