About


David
What started as a crush in 7th grade led to me falling madly in love with this amazing and handsome man many years later. I couldn't imagine spending the rest of my life any way other than by his side. He loves Jesus and encourages me daily in the way he lives his life. He supports and loves me unconditionally and is hands down the best daddy I have ever seen. He always puts our family first and works his tail off so I can stay home. He is currently living his dream in running his own "creative shop" Ell. His loves coffee, music, and reading, especially all at the same time.



Micah Man 

Micah is our firstborn bundle of energy. It is hard to believe he is already 6! He loves Kindergarten even though he has been fired as the class clown. He has the most tender and sensitive heart and has very high expectations of himself. He loves to make people laugh. He loves legos, basketball, anything super heroes, riding his bike and swimming. He dislikes naps veggies, naps and being pestered when he has asked for space. This kid keeps me on my toes and keeps our days interesting.
Laurel

Laurel is our baby girl. She just turned 4 and has more personality than any 4 year old I've ever met. She is tenacious, spunky and full of attitude half the time and the other half she is affectionate and silly. She is such a good little buddy and loves to run errands with me. She is simultaneously lovable and stubborn. She loves baby dolls, coloring, all things princess/dress up and following me or Micah around. She hates bugs, being told no and me playing with her hair. She is still a mama's girl and I cannot wait to see her grow even more into her own little person.

Riley
Riley is the often forgotten 5th member of our family. Though obnoxious at times, she has such a sweet disposition. I trust her fully with the kids and love to watch her try to interact with them. Her favorite hobby is hanging out under the kitchen table to see what kind of goodies she can find. Her favorite find is fruit loops.


Me
Hi, I'm Ally. This is my blog. It is only a blog. It is meant to be a little peek into our life. I am a stay-at-home mom living my dream. I have unrealistically high expectations of myself and am a perfectionist. I love Jesus and love to serve in our church. I like to sew and scrapbook when I can find the time. About 6 years ago, I started my own little business called Little Bears Designs designing custom invitations and announcements. I love these 3 people (sorry Riley) more that I ever could've imagined possible. Though some days are hard, I cannot imagine doing anything other than exactly what I am doing. With that said, most days I feel like I have no idea what I am doing. I am becoming more and more ok with that every day. I am so blessed.
