  • Welcome to my blog!

    Hi! I'm Traci. I'm a Registered Nurse who loves quilting, knitting, cross stitch, and the great outdoors. In my pre-scrubs life, I owned Real Photography, and you can still see my old wedding and portrait photography site here .

    I've created a map that shows links to our camping/hiking/general family fun review posts that you can find here. It's pretty much the coolest thing on this site. Thanks, Google!

    I great big puffy heart *love* comments, so please let me know you visited! I try to always reply!

I think Ellie wants her daddy.

Will, from the back seat.  Will always has the handle on what Ellie needs when she starts crying.  “I think Ellie needs a new diaper.”  “I think Ellie’s hungry.”  “I think Ellie’s tired of being in her seat.”  So when she started fussing and Will announced that she wanted Nic, I didn’t doubt it for one second—what Ellie needs, Will knows!  He’s the Ellie Whisperer!
