I was on a rollercoaster of emotions between last week and now. With the hurricane in Florida, I was a bit of a wreck worrying about my family. They’re safe and working on the clean up already and I just got word that their power was restored! LAST WEEK’S WIN: We had such a nice family…
I know, I know, I know. I’m so late to this! I can’t really explain it but I felt called to get some sourdough starter The idea of sourdough and sourdough starter felt so intimidating that I was afraid to even start for months (and months). A friend encouraged me though and I finally decided to…
Whew, we had a week. The hurricane down in Florida really took most of my energy. Thankfully my family is safe– it was a relief. I’m definitely looking forward the long weekend ahead. Will be hitting up the playground, maybe doing some baking, and squeezing in some fall activities if possible too. We’re taking family…
The weather has been perfect the last couple of weeks and I am trying to soak up as much time outside as possible! Playing pickleball is such a great fall activity to get outdoors and a fun way to stay active while catching up with friends. I came across some very cute fall pickleball outfits that…
I get it. We haven’t even gotten to Halloween yet… Why are we talking about the holidays?! The thing is, the best kids holiday pajamas tend to launch AND sell out early. A handful of these have matching options for everyone in the family, if you usually do coordinating pajamas. Best Kids Holiday Pajamas 2024…
We hit the ground running this weekend with all the fall fun. Our town’s new playground opened up on Friday so we blew off bath and bedtime and stayed out extra late. Then we had soccer practice in the morning of Saturday and our town’s big fall festival in the afternoon. It was sunny and…
One of these days, I’ll get my act together so I post these earlier. With that said, it was a totally solid month of reading and I read what I think is a perfect novel. Truly the best book I’ve read all year… maybe ever? Here’s what I read in September 2024: THE WEDDING PEOPLE by Alison…
I’m usually pretty simple when it comes to my jewelry. The one place where I tend to mix things up the most is with earrings. Well, let me clarify. I usually end up finding a few pairs that I love and wear over and over again in a hyperfixation. I occasionally find myself wearing statement…
We had a cozy week at home. Lots of baking (I have been having so much fun with sourdough) and gearing up for spooky season. Jack understands what Halloween is now, so it’s been extra fun. His class did a neighborhood walk to go see some Halloween decorations in town and it’s all he’s been…
Happy October 11 to all who celebrate 🎂”Your birthday is October 11?! So is mine!” SIX years later and these parent trap Halloween costumes remain as relevant as ever (frankly maybe even more relevant). Forever grateful to @carlyahill, the Hallie Parker to my Annie James. I believe there was a cultural reset the day we did this 🙊
Sometimes I actually can’t believe I’m a mom? Like I’m standing there holding a baby dressed in a bear fleece bunting watching my toddler running around and thinking, “whoa, these are my CHILDREN? I am a MOM???” Crazy and amazing 🫶🏻
Hunter boots 🤝🏻 Carly
I know, I know, they never went “out” in my opinion too, but I love seeing them come back into mainstream fashion. (As they should IMO!) These red boots were one of my first viral commissionable products on my blog- they took OFF on Pinterest and the rest was history. Feels like revisiting an old friend 😌 I bought these red ones right before a press trip to Scotland (!) with Barbour (!!) and I have the best memories. It’s a good reminder to “buy nice or buy twice.” Ten years later and we’re still going strong!

Ready for a fresh start this month. September is usually my favorite month of the year and I feel like it went by so fast I hardly got to enjoy it- the whole thing was a blur. Ready to savor October- I have a list of things I want to try to do (like sewing the boys’ Halloween costumes 🎃 and keep practicing my sourdough 🍞). If nothing else, I’m trying to take a moment *every day* to do something, even the tiniest 5-minute interlude, that brings me a moment of peace.
PS I definitely need to add some of the bigger blooms but I didn’t want to sacrifice them just yet 🙈
A simple September Sunday 🌧️💛 We’ve been trying to get out and do one last weekend adventure after naptime on Sunday afternoons before gearing back up for the weekday routine. Not even the rain could stop us!
Maybe this Reel isn’t exactly “instagram worthy” but it’s exactly what life looks and feels like right now and THAT is worthy of a permanent spot on the feed 🫶🏻
