I cannot believe it is the first weekend of December! Today is the first Sunday of Advent and we are so excited! I love incorporating more and more of our faith into our lives as I learn more. Keeping the Christmas season more spiritual and less commercial can be a challenge sometimes. I fall prey just like everyone else to the hustle and bustle of this time of year! This year, as with others, I…
I have always been artistic and was definitely blessed with talent in the area! I really love to draw and paint and that love grew into the digital world with my love of graphic design! With working full-time and having a small army of kids, I rarely have time to sit and create. After I had Kip, I knew I wanted to take advantage of my time at home and create something, anything really! I…
Hey all! It has been nearly forever since my last update but you know…life! We took a short family vacation last week to Louisville, Kentucky and it was awesome! I wanted to tell you all about it! Last week we took a short, 3 day mini-vacation to Louisville, Kentucky, which is about a 4+ hour drive south of where we live. We knew we only had something small in budget this year for a vacation…
I don’t know how, but our little beefcake is 3 months old already! We are all still so in love with our little Kip!

Here is a quick update on our baby number five, Kip Joseph: Growing Fast Kip is growing at a rapid pace and, while he doesn’t have the…
I can’t believe our sweet new boy is nearly 3 weeks old already! Late last week I took some time to shoot Kip’s newborn pictures. I love how they turned out! I can’t wait to compare them to the other four to see how they are similar. I am blessed to have the ability to take these quick shots to freeze these fresh, newborn days in time! Here are some of my favorites! And yes,…
He’s here! After our long, 9+ month wait, we safely welcomed baby number five into the world on February 15, 2018. And it’s a boy! Kip Joseph Fiely was born a little after 2 a.m. on a Thursday morning. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 7 oz. and was 19 1/2″ long. He made a late arrival, just like his siblings! Kip’s Birth Story
My pregnancy with baby #5 has flown by! I can’t believe we are just a few short weeks away from meeting our newest little family member! I am so full of anticipation and excitement…the entire family is! Is it a boy? A girl? What does he or she look like? As I am counting down the days until we meet this sweet babe, I can’t help but feel a bit sad that this pregnancy is…
Oh my! It has been so long since I’ve blogged. This summer has been super crazy busy but it has been so fun. It can be hard to keep up with the kiddos, hubby, house and work and enjoy the sunshine and find time to fit in blogging so I took a little break. But I just so happen to have the best time to come back! With a fun new announcement! The Fiely tribe…
Hey Coach, School is out and baseball season is upon us. Going into the season with three kids in the sport, I knew we would be busy and I knew you would be involved. Life would be crazy. But you can’t stay away. With all of the busy nights, ball games, and stressful times, I wanted to let you know that I see you.
It was Memorial Day weekend and my two oldest each came down with a weird stomach bug. Weird meaning they puked and pooped but no fever. They were totally drained.
