Here’s what we’ve been up to the last two weeks according to my camera roll!
Spring soccer is back in session! It’s so amazing to see how much growth the kids have had from season to season. We skipped winter, so I’ve been blown away by how much more focus they have and that they’re actually able to do drills. I just love this stage of mom life!! (Also yes! We upgraded from sneakers to little cleats.)
I’m such a big fan of walking whenever we’re going somewhere nearby. Even if it takes a lot longer to walk, it’s part of the adventure and everyone is so much happier not having to go in and out of car seats. We have the Joey wagon and it’s fun and easy to scoot around town with.
One of my friends brought a tiny box of Bonbon Swedish candy as a hostess gift and it was a genius idea. I’m filing it away to keep in mind for hostess gifts in the future… truly brilliant. The box was the cutest little thing I’ve ever seen– I didn’t even want to open it up!
I got some Manucurist nail polish and it’s worth the hype. I can’t get over how much I love it. I haven’t gotten manicures in years or even painted my nails, preferring a natural look. But I miss the polish? This is the perfect solution. It’s just the right amount of shine, a hint of color, but completely low maintenance.
No one prepared me for how freaking cute it would be when your child draws you a picture of yourself for the first time! I present… mama cutting her hair! My heart nearly cracked open it was so cute.
We went down the shore for a couple of days to see our long distance friends. Even though it was just a couple of nights, there’s just so much stuff to bring haha! I always bring towels and sheets for everyone so we don’t have to do laundry on the way out and I also had to bring clothes down to shoot for a campaign. Whether you’re traveling with kids for one night or one week though, there’s always a fixed amount of things you need to bring. (Or I guess I do to keep everyone comfy, ha.)
Jack and I had an early morning on the beach. Oh it was so fun! I love going down the shore off season– felt like we had the entire beach to ourselves!
So many boys, so many activities!
A special doughnut date, just because.
I’m so excited to be working with Jones Road Beauty this year! One of my goals was to get more work in the beauty vertical so this is extra exciting. I got to go to their store in Montclair and try out some new-to-me products on top of the products I already love. So excited to share more!!
A fun little girls night at a local restaurant! We (literally) shut the place down… at 10pm 🤣
What a fun few days ! Thanks for sharing!

Love the drawing! I miss those days! I just found some of my boys’ drawings and I’m going to have them transferred onto canvas to needlepoint ornaments! I think they’ll be my favorites!
