Apparently I was really feeling black and neutrals as my color palette over the last week. LAST WEEK’S WIN: I think the biggest win from the past week was that I successfully listened to my body. This is not a strength of mine and I’m usually one to just push through it. I did not feel great…
I’ve been so behind on my Instagram DMs lately. It’s a battle I really can’t win and I feel like I’m always going to disappoint people since I simply can’t get to every one. I opened up a question box this weekend. I answered a few there and thought I’d answer another ten in a…
We’re a few weeks away from Mother’s Day…. and I’m already starting the hunt. So many fun things to shower mom with love. And I know that it’s not about the gifts, but when you spot something that feels like you’ve found something that’s very “her” it’s hard to resist! MOTHER’S DAY GIFTS Mixed Media Bow…
This has been the year of the sneaker for me. I used to wear ballet flats almost every single day and now I find myself reaching for my sneakers. I am so happy that sneaks are in style and acceptable to wear with everything from jeans to dresses. So many cute styles out there. I…
It’s been a bumpier this week than usual. Really just a lot on my plate over the next couple of weeks and I am eager to get things done. I honestly feel like I’m back in college and I have one final paper standing between me and summer vacation. I am planning on taking a tiny…
Okay. I know this is a pregnancy pillow…. but I really wanted to write this post because I am obsessed with it and not just because I’m pregnant. I love it so much, I genuinely don’t see myself sleeping without one in the future and wish I had invested in one a lot sooner. Why don’t we…
I love a good oversized button up. Like, love love. I have a small collection over the years and find them to be the comfiest thing to wear. I’m finding that these oversized shirts are gloriously perfect to wear while pregnant. Something I never considered was how you need a shirt to not only fit over your…
Another week of outfits! Every week that goes by, I feel like we’re settling more and more into a sense of “new normalcy” and it’s been a nice change of pace. LAST WEEK’S WIN: I got a MASSAGE for the first time in over a year. I used to go all the time and really…
If you haven’t heard… the Shopbop sale started! It’s a “spend more, save more” sale on most things on their site (some exclusions). Save 15% on orders of $200+, 20% on orders $500+, and 25% on orders $800+. Right now my FAVORITE handbag is included in the sale. If it’s the only thing you buy,…
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
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 😛
