Luke is 3 Years Old!
Doesn't it seem like yesterday that I was still pregnant with Luke and writing pregnancy updates? How did 3 years go by?! Luke has grown into such a personality. He is equally sweet and sassy, loving and fiesty. He brings so much fun and happiness to our family. I just read through his 2 ...
You Spoke and I’m Listening: The Happy Healthy Mama Survey Results
Last week, I asked you to take a survey. I hoped to gain insight into what you like and dislike about Happy Healthy Mama and how I can make it the best blog it can be. I've gone through times during the last 4+ years I've been blogging of putting more and less effort into this space. Life ebbs and ...
What do you think? The Official Reader Survey
What is a blog without readers? Nothing. Today it's time for Happy Healthy Mama's first official reader survey. This blog is all about you. You, lovely reader, are the heartbeat of this blog. It's you, your comment that you tried a recipe, the community you create, when you tell me how it ...

Meghan’s Paris-Themed 6th Birthday Party
Meghan's birthday was over a week ago and I still can't believe this baby girl is 6. How did that happen?! Her birthday party was planned for the day before her birthday, but the poor girl was sick. She tested positive for Enterovirus D68. This was her for almost a week straight. Fever, no ...
What Can Happen If You Decide To Speak Up?
During Meghan's first year of preschool, they served juice and some sort of processed food (such as crackers) for snack everyday. It bothered me because those were not things I gave her at home often, but I didn't say anything since she was only there three mornings a week. The next ...
Stitch Fix Review #4: September 2014
Whenever I tell another mom that I have a blog, the first thing she usually says is, "How do you find the time?" The answer is that I don't. I've looked and looked and can never find the time. So I just gotta make the time. I make the time by getting up early in the morning to edit photos. I ...
The Anniversary Post
Yesterday, Tim and I celebrated 8 years of marriage. We were able to get away for one night to have some alone time and celebrate our love. We returned to the same place we went on our anniversary when I was pregnant with Luke. Ohio isn't exactly known for its scenic hiking, but there are a few ...
Stitch Fix #2 July 2014
Can you believe it's been a month since I started using Stitch Fix? When I received an email telling me my second Fix from Stitch Fix was on its way, I was shocked at how fast the month had gone by. Slow down, summer, you're going too fast! Today I'm going to share with you what I got in my ...
Home Again
We got home late Sunday night from an amazing, but too short trip to northern Michigan. Seems everyone was traveling home Sunday after the holiday and what should have taken us eight hours took us eleven. Eleven hours in a car with two kids sounds fun, right? It was awesome. As I lay in bed last ...
2 1/2 Years
Remember this guy? He's 2 1/2! I am in awe of the toddler my little baby's grown into. He's a walking, talking, big-boy-potty-using cool guy who is equally loving and gentle as rough and tumble. And I just keep falling more in love with him everyday. Ready for some updates? Feel free ...
