We got a very familiar travel itch 3 days before Elijah’s birthday. Risky business planning a trip 48 hours before departure with a toddler (add in an overnight shift for mommy to the mix) but we couldn’t resist!! We have visited Mexico City several times, but have made it a point to stay in a […]
Boring is Good.
It’s legit the end of May and this is my first post of 2022… Happy New Year??? Halftime show highlights include our bestie turning 2 years old, a Cali/Texas Easter, a hot girl Ronald weekend in NOLA, and the resumption of “normalcy” mid-pandemic. We have really honed in on making the best of our time […]
No Church In The Wild
The wild wild west is meant to be seen!! We had to cancel our trip to Chile, but knew we couldn’t sit still with our time off. Our last minute plans to Bend Big National Park exceeded all of our expectations. It’s always been on my personal bucket list to visit the Prada building in […]

Thinking of where to go in Europe when we first booked our flight a few months ago, Italy was the perfect place to travel to. Considering it’s mid-pandemic, their COVID numbers are low and Rome is completely walkable. Plenty to see, eat, and drink. Overall, 10/10! Traveling to Europe with a toddler was…… challenging. While […]
Lauren Forgot Her Bag
Our first international trip with Esme was great with the exception of two things. First Lauren checked a bag leaving Dallas. Arrived in Costa Rica and she did not even think to grab it at baggage claim (noticed once we arrived at the resort, an hour away from the airport). In her defense, we had […]
So I Can’t Wear Athleisure!?
We had the chance to take some professional photos of the Jones-Kellum family. They came out great and we had to share a few! Seeing them makes me want to capture these moments annually. We are so used to being the ones behind the camera snapping Esme. It was nice to have all three of […]
A New York Minute
We Kellums are trying to put in some serious overtime with traveling. We took a shot at flying with our 13 month old to see if we could really continue to move around the world like we used to. New York City doesn’t sound ideal to bring a baby to, but there were so many […]
Baby Product Reviews & Links
Well…! Hello from the other side of newborn-hood and COVID (kinda)! 12 months with Esme FLEW by and the learning curve was real. Outside of my mom group (shout out to Juana, Krystal, and Grace) I had to do a lot of research and reading to figure out what was going to work for us. […]
