In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
When the boys go down for bed, sometimes it feels akin to crossing the finish line of a marathon! With my @therabody Theragun Sense, now I’m able to unwind and relax from the #WorkoutCalledLife. With step-by-step prompts on an LCD screen (and accompanying app), the Theragun Sense guides you through different recoveries depending on what your goals are. Tonight, I’m prepping for restful sleep with a six-minute guided massage! #TherabodyPartner
Halloween 2024 was one for the memory books 🏈 Rory’s first Halloween!! Jack had a blast, Rory loved tagging along, and Mike and I couldn’t stop smiling 🤍 I don’t know how many years I’ll be able to convince the boys to coordinate their costumes so really taking advantage- I bought Jack’s football player costume (customized!) and sewed Rory’s football bubble myself (Jack asked if he could throw him, which was a resounding and firm, “no.”). Now time to raid Jack’s stash 😛
#AveenoPartner If your little one has eczema prone skin, try switching to @aveenous’s Baby Daily Care Wash during bath time to cleanse without drying out their skin. We also use Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Body Balm before bed to intensely moisturize and help protect Rory’s skin from moisture loss! Not only does his skin feel and look healthier, he’s so much more comfortable too! You can buy both of these products today on Amazon!
With @marthastewart48’s @netflix documentary releasing today, I invited some friends (👋🏻 @samanthavarvel and @shihstitches) over to my studio to peruse my new-to-me collection of @marthastewart Living magazines. I grew up with a “Martha Stewart Mom” and read her magazines every month alongside her. They have brought back so many memories, and they are serving up new inspiration now! I used to want to be a magazine editor, I’m sure influenced by magazines like Martha Stewart Living, and now that I’ve had a chance to revisit them, it’s not a crazy surprise I ended up as a blogger-turned-influencer. I’ve always loved this, and it’s a good thing. 🫶🏻
Getting inspired in the kitchen by listening to Ina Garten’s new memoir with @audible while I bake her French Apple Tart! The perfect cozy fall afternoon at home for me. Discover your next inspiring listen with Audible!

This post is what I hate about blogger gift guides – you just dumped a bunch of links, with nothing about why you picked these gifts, your experiences with them, price range, or any useful content. I’d love to see a post about what gifts you’ve given friends, putting a gift together (i.e. some of the items you list would be strange on their own – do you make a nice little gift bag with the cheese flags and the cocktail napkins and a bottle of wine?).
It’s just a gift guide for some fun ideas to get inspired by
Carly, I always appreciate your ideas and internet finds. I read very few blogs, but I see yours daily. Thanks for taking the time and effort to put this together!
No one is forcing you to read it!
Thanks for showing us some fun ideas, Carly!
Your best gift list yet!
Love the match striker! This is such a clever gift idea. Thanks for sharing!
so happy to see a few sustainable gifts! I know you’re trying to live more sustainably and I would love to see a themed gift guide–I’m trying to subtly encourage my family to adopt better habits! Would you also consider a small business-themed gift guide?
The barretts are so cute. I actually thought of them for my little nieces.
Oh no! The link is broken for the monogrammed hair accessories.
