Please note the question mark in the title. If you’re looking for a post about what to pack for the hospital, this is not it. (Though, I’m hoping that the comment section is filled with valuable information!) You all were so incredibly helpful when I asked for baby registry advice (here’s what we ended up…
I keep finding fun monogrammed pieces. While I still love a good monogram, over the years, I’ve gravitated towards more minimalist monogramming. Not always, but most of the time…. except all of these punchy monograms have me wanting to go for ALL THE COLOR and fun fonts. Sharing some of my favorite finds: Punchy Monograms…
I hope you guys had a good week and maybe some fun plans this weekend! We don’t have anything official scheduled and I’m quite looking forward to a quiet weekend at home. It looks like it’ll be another hot weekend so I’m planning on getting a few things done around the house if it’s stormy,…
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opened to cardholders last week. Although I won’t be able to shop until July 28th, when it opens up to the public, I thought I’d go ahead and share some of the pieces I like included in the sale this year. Over the years, I have purchased some of my favorite…
I WROTE A BOOK!!! Feels so good to be able to officially say that out loud!!! PREORDER BUSINESS MINDED NOW! It’s been such a whirlwind of a timeline that sometimes I can’t believe it’s actually real. But it is! The timing was especially wild (and special) because I signed the book deal right before I found out I…
Last week was a scorcher. (Do you remember that old Sears air conditioning commercial?! My sister and I quote it all the time…) I think every day except for Sunday had a heat index over 100 at some point during the day and we had a bunch of summer storms too. Definitely made me a little…
Sharing a few recent shows and movies I’ve watched. Some old, some new… Mike and I are currently watching The Good Place together and we’re excited for the new season of Ted Lasso, too. Would love to know if there’s anything out there that I must watch… either alone or with Mike. Always on the hunt…
I wanted to talk about something that’s been top of mind for me. (I know I’m talking about pregnancy a lot lately. But it’s become just such a huge part of my everyday life, it’s hard to ignore!) I think I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ve always dreamed of being a mom. I knew from…
It’s been a while since my last Diary post– I was thinking there’d be a ton to catch up on. But a big chunk of that time was spent on Nantucket and I already shared a bunch of pictures from that. Otherwise, life has been fairly quiet as we not-so-patiently wait (and keep preparing) for baby!…
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche_us!
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using:
– Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items
– Google docs for writing/brainstorming
– Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...)
– Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs
– Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines
– Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
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
