Remi is ready to kick off summer and show off her summer thigh rolls 😍 She got to meet her two newborn cousins this month, and she looks huge compared to them 😂. She loves her food and has been going on a bit of a milk strike in preference for the real stuff 🤪 She's still working on getting her knees under her for crawling, but is a rolling Queen to get wherever she wants to go. Making a lot more purposeful sounds so we're thinking she may be an early talker 🤞🏼 (earlier than all others at least 😜). Looking a bit more like Brooklyn this month. Remi weighs 17 lbs 2 oz. Swipe ▶️ to see what happens when you realize there's a carton of eggs next to you. No eggs were harmed in the making of this post. Hoping to add some of our chicken eggs to the carton this next month.

Facts: 1. I'm posting this because Remi turns nine Facts:
1. I'm posting this because Remi turns nine months tomorrow and I need one more photo before her monthly update photo to keep with the diagonal pattern. 
2. If it weren't for the monthly update photos I would probably never post to my feed anymore 😬🤦🏼‍♀️.
3. Blakely loves her chickens!
4. Life is good!

Knoxville Gardens to Explore

It’s springtime in East Tennessee and all the flowering trees are in full bloom! This is my favorite time of year to take the kids on a garden tour. Though we love exploring the gardens year-round, there is truly something magical about a flowering garden in the springtime. It’s a great way to spend an afternoon with the kids out in nature. These are also some of my favorite spots to snap some spring photos of our family. Here are my favorite gardens to explore in Knoxville including a hidden gem only open to the public one a year in April!

Best Hiking Trails with Kids at Frozen Head State Park

Frozen Head State Park has several very family friendly trails that we love making this a place we frequent often! I especially love visiting Frozen Head in the spring when the many wildflowers along the trail are in bloom and the water level is up for the falls. But we also love visiting in the summer for refreshing creek play and in the fall for the beautiful foliage. Here are our favorite kid-friendly trails in the park.

Top Places to Explore with Kids in all 50 States

With big travel plans put on hold, many families are turning to staycations and exploring locally to fill their vacation calendars. After a big 2019, our plans for 2020 have always been to lay low. Thankful we live in the foothills of the Great Smoky and Blue Ridge Mountains and have lots to explore. But if there is one thing I learned on our road trip, it’s that there is beauty and wonder everywhere you look. Yes, every state has its gems! I did a lot of researching and asking around in planning for our 50-state road trip on the top must-see attractions in every state, especially with young kids, and on a budget. There were so many amazing options all over the country! I definitely made an ultimate bucket list. Here is a list of my top things to explore with kids in each state!

Welcome to my blog on everyday motherhood and family travel and outdoor adventures!

I'm Samantha from @samantharaisingwildflowers on Instagram.

I am blessed to be raising three "wildflowers" after years of infertility. Sharing and connecting on all things mamahood and mom life has become my passion. I am constantly learning, growing, and evolving on this journey of parenthood. One this is certain; I am determined to give my girls a slow, carefree childhood. We love Jesus, family, nature, travel, books, and laughing. We are not afraid to be different.

“[A wildflower is] a free spirit. Uncultivated by the mainstream. Independent thinker. Bravely growing wild and free in a world plagued by conformity.” – Urban Dictionary

“There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other wings.” – Author Unknown

We would love to connect with you and have you along for the journey!
