Vivienne’s 5 Month Update and Picture
Yesterday Vivienne was 5 months old. I realized in all the craziness of starting a quarantine that we missed her 4 month picture, but I did manage to get a 5 month picture taken yesterday, and how different she looks from our last one of these! Vivi is 13 lbs 12 oz (a chunk!). We’re…

Sewing a Face Mask from Scrap
Last night I sewed myself a face mask from scrap fabric leftover from the outfit I sewed Nora for her second birthday. It’s the first time I have sewed in over a year and it feels like a surreal sewing project, especially given the original intent for this fabric, but it seems like we should…

Escaping Fleas: A Day at Pop Pop’s Ranch
On top of all the things – trying to rescue the business from the economic slowdown, all four girls at home, and supervising education – of course the dog would get fleas that resisted all my attempts at cleaning. So today we played hookie from work and school and escaped to Chris’ dad’s ranch while…

Family Picture in a Field
I told Chris that for my 35th birthday I wanted to take our camera and tripod over to a field and take a family picture. I can’t believe how much time has passed since Vivienne was born and how few pictures we’ve taken. But maybe that’s just life with four kids, a business, and a…

Balanced nap time with little sister.
Nap buddies. I am so glad that Addie has Vivi. It’s amazing how it worked out with our four girls. Two bigs and two littles. I used to be worried about Addie being left out by the big girls, but now that we have our littlest girl it feels very balanced. Clearly it was meant…

What It’s Really Like Working Remotely From a Fully Remote Team
A note from Amber: This blog post was originally written by our content specialist, Emma Crowe-Fleming for the Road Warrior Creative blog. I moved it over here when we closed down that business and took the website offline because I think it’s a good window into what our team was like in March 2020, and…

Austin Food Marketing Meetup Live Stream
A bug has been working it’s way through our house so I missed our Austin Food Marketing meetup @capitalfactory tonight, but lucky me, we live stream on YouTube so I’m not missing out. It looks like Chris has things under control.

Struggles with Breastfeeding and Supplementing
3 months: 9lbs 1oz, 22.5in long. We’re celebrating every ounce but still not totally sure what the solution is besides lots and lots of pumping and supplementing. I took Vivi to an ENT today. She has a mild posterior tongue tie, but we didn’t get a magic solution to our nursing woes; he said there’s…
