Baby Love, My baby love.

Quite honestly,

I feel like having a baby is the best thing I've ever done.

Im savoring every second of watching this little girl grow

and i don't plan on stopping anytime soon!

Its a pretty special thing having a new baby right in the

middle of the holidays. i definitely recommend it!

the Christmas spirit is like WOAH.

It is strooong!

Life is so busy at the moment and its a bit tough

to steal away and write music but lucky for me

i have the worlds most supportive, sweet

husband and family who understand my need

to continue that part of my life.

I would go crazy if i couldn't write.

no, i mean it....

Probably actually nutty. like, go to the farm kind of deal.

It's weird as humans how we have these

deep individual needs and desires.

Becoming a Mom has revealed a new one to me.

One i wasn't even sure i had.

I hoped deep down that i would.

But you're never really quite sure until

you have your own baby and then.. BOOM!

It happens. you fall in love.

You're met with this new found happiness.

And with it comes so much fulfillment.

Again, fulfillment that you didn't even know

you needed!

Pretty cool.

Merry Christmas!

Little Sickly. Mostly Happy.

Our little family has been a bit sick this weekend. Thankfully nothing to awful. Just the kind of sick that makes you want to laze around and watch a bunch of arrested development, eat croissants and soup and cuddle your 2 month old.

Wow! 2 months. Where has the time gone? I feel like Scarlett is like an oak tree. but instead of counting the rings to tell her age I am counting the rolls!  Okay, I know that was a weird analogy but it just made sense in my silly mama brain. 

I can't wait for our first family Christmas together! 

We will be traveling to the lovely land of Springfield, MO where all of Darren's family and a good amount of our closest friends, musical companions and all around good people reside.

Hoping to record some Sucre stuff during that time as well! Eee!

Jolly-o dearies! (Sort of like cheery-o but you know...cause Christmas..baahhhh)

New Life.

Well Hello there, has it been a while!

This poor blog has practically been in hibernation

since the release of Sucre's debut album. I apologize for the M.I.A status.

it wasn't my intention to abandon ship or unplug from you all. 

It's simply that i didn't have time to keep up with blogging during my pregnancy.

Now, hang on a second. i know you're thinking "wait….aren't the only things pregnant women do are sit

around all day and eat bon bons?" (or in my case macaroons)

 Umm, sort of.

But it actually turns out the past nine months have probably been the busiest of my entire life.

What with growing a baby, 3 tours, writing and recording Eisley's 4'th LP (which Mr. Jeremy Larson

may or may not have a hand in mixing/strings) and overall growing in every way imaginable

and eagerly anticipating the arrival of my newborn Daughter, I'd say I've had a lot on my plate.

But its all been absolutely wonderful and very exciting.

Scarlett was born just 6 weeks ago and already my life has changed

in what feels like a thousand new ways.

i am not the same woman, she has forever changed my heart for the better.

i feel born again myself and overwhelmed with love for this tiny little person.

She is perfectly beautiful and Darren and i could not be more greatful to God for her.

I have already begun writing again. i suppose i have much to 

be inspired about lately!

Though A Minor Bird still has so much life left in it, i am very

eager to get the gears moving. 

So with that said, i hope you'll follow this new journey of mine as i venture

into motherhood and deeper into myself as an artist and song writer.

i hope that you enjoy my updates, thoughts and pictures (i promise not ALL of them

will be of my daughter)

Sincerely Yours, Stacy.

Memories.

I was digging through my photo library

and came across a few photos/videos i

captured during the record making process

for A minor bird.

They fill my mind with

such fond memories that will forever

be locked in my heart as some of the most

special days of my life.

I absolutely loved the atmosphere, the people,

the city. 

Each day i felt so inspired to go work

with My husband and Jeremy at his

wonderful studio.

I greatly look forward to the next time

we are able to make music together again

but until then

I thought i'd share a few of these little snippets

with you guys.

Enjoy!

Scarlett.

It's hard to put into words just how incredible

life has been lately. 

So many new changes!

Although "Changes" sounds like too generic

 of a word to describe the emotion i feel lately

for all that is happening.

I can say with full honesty that i

LOVE being pregnant.

Thankfully i have had a really easy go

at it thus far and am still able to do most

everything i did before, at 5 months pregnant.

I am currently in the studio recording

with my other band Eisley. This will be our 4'th LP.

We are recording and producing it ourselves

and so far i feel great about what we are doing.

Sucre has some exciting things in

the works as well. 

"A Minor Bird" has been out 3 months

and so many lovely things have already come about from

it's debut in April.

My life feels full of color

and love at the moment and i'm so happy to share it with you all.

For those of you who were curious,

Darren and i are expecting a Girl in late October

and her name will be Scarlett. :)

Love my Family. Love Frozen Yogurt.

Look! We bought a house!!

Here is a 3D image of little miss Scarlett 

from my sonogram last week!

We can't wait to meet this little face

in person!!

Now it's time to pick out a middle name.....

any ideas??

Special Days.

These past few days have been very special.

I've loved getting to spend so much time

with my family.

Darren is in Australia and i'm missing

him dreadfully!

It's tough being away from him

during such a special time:)

It's a stormy day and i think

it's time to go see a movie.

Dark Shadows or The Avengers?

Let me know!

-Stacy.

Special Announcement!

Hello Everyone!

Today Darren and I have some pretty HUGE and exciting news to share

with you all!

WE ARE EXPECTING!!!!!

Yes, it's true. I am 3 months pregnant

and sporting a tiny baby bump! 

We are beyond excited and it has been torturous to 

keep this a secret!!

We wanted to wait until after the Sucre tour to

spill the beans with the rest of the world.

I want to Thank Everyone who came out to 

the shows. It was double-y special to tour and sing

 these songs knowing all the while that i was pregnant.

Yes, the sun seems to be shining very brightly these days.

Me and Darren feel extremely blessed and excited to

start this new chapter in our lives and in our marriage.

I have never felt so inspired to write and record new music,
and Darren can't wait to buy a little mini drum set.

Our lives will forever be centered around love, family, and making music.

We are so very thrilled to share this happy news with you!

Much Love,

Darren, Stacy and future baby king!

Thanks Elsie!!! 

Southern Belle.

Truth be told,

I am a southern bell.

I'm certain i will always be.

I love how green and lush the south is.

it honestly makes my heart skip a beat at times.

I'm so happy to be home for a few days

relaxing, enjoying the spring weather

that bring with it those longer, romantic warm evenings.

All i want to be doing during this time

of year is spending time with My Husband and Family

(barbequing if i'm really honest.)

Going for walks, lazing around reading books

and writing a song or two.

It's the perfect time to relax.

and i'm taking full advantage of it because

Darren and i leave in about a week to meet up

with Jeremy in L.A to start Sucre's first tour!

We are beyond excited!

The record release is also right around the corner.

coming up on april 10'th.

You can now sample snippets of the record at

Amazon if you like! or preorder the record here.

It's been such an amazing experience making

this record. I feel so lucky to have gotten the

chance to work with my husband and dear friend Jeremy.

And for this reason it is so very close to my heart.

I hope each of you take it and make it your very own.

Please, please, pleeeease come see us

this month while we have this opportunity 

to come and play for a few cities.

I'm not sure how much touring we'll

be doing this year but i hope it's more

than less.

Thank you all so much for your kind

feedback on Facebook and twitter.

Every message means a lot!

*hugs*

Pictures from the present.

Hello All,

Stacy here.

It's been a while since i last posted.

Been busy, on the road with Eisley. 

Touring has been fun!

Darren finished his tour last week

and joined me in Philadelphia.

It's been so wonderful having him here.

This past week we got to explore

cities like Boston, Buffalo NY, and

today Covington Kentucky!

Boston has to be one of the coolest cities ever, of all time.

It's so beautiful, romantic and holds so much history.

We hung out around Copley Square

and shopped on Newbury St.

We visited the boston library

and it honestly blew my mind.

The inside was filled with marble pillars and marble staircases 

that took you from floor

to floor.

 gigantic murals lined the walls.

Tiny secret rooms made of all wood

that housed tiny secret books.

There were also huge rooms that were not so secretive

where students could sit at neat desks and study for hours.

I honestly think we could've spent all day in there

and still would never have found the end of it.

It was so magical.

Darren outside the library looking charming

and jolly at the same time.

Hope you are all doing wonderful

and enjoying the first hints of spring.

The release of the album is so close!!!

Thank you all who have already pre ordered it.

For those of you in L.A Sucre will be

playing Our Album release show at The Bootleg bar on April 12'th

Love Always,
