This past week went by at warp speed. We hit the ground running upon our return and I feel like “real life” hit us fast. Catching up with family, friends, and (of course) work. I felt like I needed 48 hours to get my life reassembled here. We had to get Jack readjusted to being…
Now that we’re back from Nantucket, I’ve started thinking more about the holidays! I’m looking forward to spending more time with family this year and making up for last year’s unusual holiday season. One of my favorite parts about the holidays is all of the traditions associated. This year feels extra special since it will…
This was one of my very favorite mom moments so far. Obviously we’re not too far into it, but it felt like a little taste of all the fun to come. While I admit that the other day I started sobbing looking at pictures from the day he was born, I am more okay with…
J. Crew just launched their holiday collection for this year! Right now you can get 25% off your purchase with code “NOVEMBER” and up to 50% off certain sale pieces too (the prices are marked). Just when I said in today’s earlier post that I wasn’t feeling excited about new clothes lately, this collection may have…
This was a great week in general, terrible week for outfits! First of all, Nantucket got hit pretty hard by a nor’easter in the middle of the week and it brought chilly, rainy, and extremely windy weather with it. Then we spent a couple of day packing, getting home, and unpacking. Super thrilling stuff! I…
Two great, one not-so-great book. While this was a lower yield month book-wise, I’m still pretty proud of finishing three books. Still trying to find time for reading. I’ve been trying to read via the Kindle app in the middle of the night while nursing, but I can barely keep my eyes straight. Mike and…
It’s the first gift guide of the season! As someone who loves to hear what other people are gifting to their friends and family, I thought a great way to kick off the 2021 gift guides would be to look back on the most popular gifts from 2020 and share some of the top-selling items…
Ugh our last two weeks from this very special trip. Every day seemed to be filled with some sort of magic! My best friend Nicole and her husband came over from the cape to spend the weekend with us. I have been dying for her to meet Jack and it was everything to see them…
This was kind of a crazy week. Lots of work deadlines mixed with my parents visiting and a nor’easter hitting Nantucket pretty hard. This was our last week here and we had really gotten so lucky with the weather up until this week. Certainly a lot of drama to go out with a bang with! Here’s…
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. 🫶🏻
