And just like that we have a 3 year old! Lillian Caroline made me a Mama and Greg a Daddy 3 years ago and changed our worlds. She is the brightest star in the whole Universe and the most special human I’ve ever encountered. I don’t have words for how obsessed I am with this
Exploring the Milwaukee Domes with my little photographer Is it Springtime yet?? No, not yet. Several more weeks. And I have to say I’ve been getting some cabin fever over here, in stay at home mom life at the Henesy house. Lillian and I really needed to get out and see some plant life and
Plastic Free Living As Plastic Free July came to a close, I can honestly say that I have made some significant lifestyle changes over the past few weeks. This was my first time participating in the July challenge and I now have a whole new awareness for the amount of plastic we were using here
Mommy and Me Swimsuits One of the most exciting things about having a baby girl was the opportunity to match with her and dress alike. Well that day and age has finally arrived! We did wear our matching dresses on Mother’s Day and it was precious. And now that Summer has finally arrived for us
Lilacs are possibly my favorite flower. Only tied for first place with the peony. They’re both so gorgeous and so fragrant! But one of them is so fleeting. Lilacs are only in bloom for a few weeks of the year, making them just that much more special to me. So when I saw them in

It’s been raining all day here in Florida, and I’m sitting in an outpatient waiting room for more bloodwork. I’ve lost count of the blood draws over the last couple of weeks to keep track of my hcg levels. Two weeks ago today, at 6 weeks pregnant, I fainted and had cramping which earned me
Lillian Caroline Baby girl is officially not a baby anymore! Two years old equals toddlerhood and I can say her age in years instead of months. Last year for her first birthday I went all out! Venue, invites, custom cake, decorations, photographer… the works. But this year, I kept it super simple and sweet, with
Mom Jeans Of course, this cut of jeans was bound to come back around. Now that I am a mom, I guess it’s a little more fitting for me to wear a pair of mom jeans? Especially because I WAS momming during this photo shoot!! Brunched with baby girl at Sweet Diner, one of my
Happy Holidays from the Henesy Family in our matching pajamas! I really wanted to do the matching family pajamas pics last year, but I went with a dressed up, modern studio session for our first official Henesy family holiday card. So I already knew this year what the plan was! Yep, we did the fam
