Here we are, September 29th and it’s 93 degrees in middle Tennessee. Why????😫
Everyone I know is just longing for it to feel like Fall, myself included. To feel a chill in the air. To be able to wear long sleeves or a hat without melting. And it’s been SO dry….
And she’s TWO. How?!? Our sweet little Adelaide just celebrated her second birthday, and I just don’t know where the past two years have gone. I still remember so vividly when she was born, and Brighton, our then two-year old held her in his arms. Odd how the days can sometimes feel long, but the years race by. Which every parent says, right? Because it’s so true…
I can hardly believe we have a FOUR year old. But somehow it’s true. Looking back on each of the other birthday posts I’ve shared, nearly all of them start with the same thing – “I can hardly believe…”. As a mother with little ones,…
I can hardly believe it’s already been a year, and our little Adelaide is officially one. You hear it often said when referring to parenting and little ones, “the days are long, but the years are short”. I’m only three years into this parenting thing, but I can already agree wholeheartedly with this statement…
She’s here! Our little Adelaide Grace Pauley arrived three weeks ago on Saturday, September 9, 2017 at 11:19 pm, measuring 21″ long, and weighing 8 lbs 4 ounces. Our hearts are so full and beyond grateful that she is healthy and thriving, not to mention perfectly beautiful {even if we are biased }…
I know, I know…another kids-family-personal/non-food-related post…I know this doesn’t interest some of you and that is COMPLETELY OKAY. This is the season of our lives right now, one I am loving, and I promise that before long, I will have tons of healthy recipes to share with you…
Once again today is a sneak peak into our family life as I share the celebration of our little boy’s second birthday. If kids’ birthday parties aren’t something you’re interested in right now, 100% get it, and I promise to have a new recipe for you later this week!…
I know my little space here on Lemons and Basil is primarily focused on sharing healthy recipes, but it’s also become a place for me to document things for our growing family. If kids rooms aren’t something of interest to you, I completely get it – rest assure I’ll be back with a new tasty recipe to share soon!…
I think we can all agree that Spring and Fall are two truly lovely seasons. I have friends who tend to hate summer or winter, but living in Tennessee, we have the luxury of experiencing all four season and I find I look forward to and love each and every one…
I can still hardly believe we have a one year old. In so many ways, it seems like he was only born yesterday, and yet in others, it feels as if he’s been here so much longer…
As a full-time mom, to a ten month old baby boy who is into e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g, meals that can be prepped ahead of time have become a must – which is why I love these Stuffed Spaghetti Squash Burrito Bowls!…
Disclaimer: If wedding stories aren’t your thing, feel free to delete this post and stay tuned for the next one, I promise we’ll be back to clean-eating recipes in no time!
With the birth of our sweet baby boy, nearly 8 months ago, our lives are so different today than they were eight years ago…
The Holidays are here, and with them comes holiday baking in all it’s glory – pumpkin, apple, maple, caramel, peppermint, mocha… the flavors and varieties are endless!…
After 40 weeks of praying and planning for this little boy, Brighton Asher Pauley made his arrival on Saturday, August 8th, 2015 at 10:24AM, measuring 21″ long and weighing 7 lbs 14 ounces!…
I know my posts have been few and far between lately, and this nursery is a big reason WHY! If you’ve followed along the last several months, then you know that Josh and I are expecting our first baby the end of July any day now! We could not be more excited to meet our little guy…
We had the most wonderful time last Sunday, surrounded by our family and friends as we found out whether our sweet baby is a boy or a girl. And it’s a BOY!…
Happy Friday! I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t be more thrilled to see the weekend arrive! Wednesday marked my 29th birthday and the start of my final year in my twenties…
Occasionally…I listen to him. By him, I mean my husband. He loves this Spicy Sriracha Cashew Sauce, and suggested {more than once} that I designate a post to it and it alone. He made the same recommendation for this dressing and the outcome was fairly successful…
Two things: First, let me apologize for the short rushed post {likely full of typos and errors}, but I have about 4.5 minutes to write this! Second, these BBQ Tilapia and Sweet Potato Tacos are seriously so amazing, I think you’ll happily forgive my typos and poor grammar!…
Since we have officially said “So Long” to our first home, I thought I’d take the chance to share some pictures of it here on the blog. Josh and I bought this house in 2009 from the builder. While the house was brand new, we purchased it after the builder had already selected and installed all finishes. So unfortunately we didn’t have the opportunity to have input on the cabinets, flooring, etc…
