So much of school was stressful for me, due in part to the pressure I put on myself (“pressure” is an understatement, ha), but I loved learning. I still remember the teachers who encouraged my curiosity and creativity! It meant so much to me. With in-laws who work in education and a son in daycare,…
Wow, did anyone else feel like January was 45 days long?! At the same time, I also can’t believe my due date month is here, and I am so excited for the baby to arrive! Iāve been doing a bit of Amazon shopping to prep and wanted to share what I bought on Amazon in…
The first five weeks of Rory’s life have truly flown by and now Easter is a week and a half away! It’s the first holiday we’ll be spending with both boys and I can’t believe we’re already crossing off this “milestone.” š„ŗ To me, the best Easter basket stuffers are things that they either won’t…
I took a little break last month, but amĀ back with another what I bought on Amazon post and sharing some of my favorite purchases from March! Quilted JacketĀ // I’ve been wearingĀ this jacketĀ so much that I had to get another color! I couldn’t resist this punchy floral print, and it’s the perfect affordable spring layering piece…
I wanted to do a fun round up of summer family photo outfits. These have been so fun to put together and I’ve been getting requests for more family photo outfit ideas, so I’m more than happy to oblige. It kind of feels like the old school blogging days! With our own family photos, my…
I’m going to be doing an updated Nantucket travel guide soon (lots of new updates and favorites to share as I’ve gotten to know the island even more), but I wanted to first do a travel guide specific to traveling with little kids. I have a toddler and a baby and recently came back from…
Catch up on Day 0 of COACP here! Dad is just unloading the last of my various boxes and duffels onto the cart we were given for move-in day. Every molecule in my body is filled with anxiety. Well, there are at least two filled with excitement. Those two excited molecules urge me out of…
This past week was an absolute blur. We had a ton of bad weather, which somehow made the week feel extra fast and super slow at the same time. I managed to squeeze in some fun though! Always a good thing. LAST WEEK’S WIN: I had put off a ton of, like, life stuff and…
This post is sponsored by thredUP. I have been a big fan of thredUP for years. Now that I’m pregnant, I’m relying on thredUP more than ever!!! If I’ve learned anything in my short time with a baby bump so far, it’s that finding clothes that make me feel GOOD during this stage of life…

With Jack in preschool and Rory in daycare part time, I am clicking back into gear with work. A little scared to see how it goes and also excited to dive back in. I really do love my job. And as we move into the fourth quarter, things are already heating up- I feel ready to take it on. Before things get even crazier, I also wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to YOU. Whether weāre commiserating about ruined baby naps, chatting about what to wear to a wedding, laughing about being nude and lewd (š¤), sharing memes about American Girl dolls, or adding another bow product to our shopping carts, Iām just so glad youāre here. Iāve been on the internet for so long and can confidently say I have the best group of women following along. Weāve gone through so many life stages together. š«¶š»

@simply_elsa and I met five years ago when I moved to the suburbs. I quite literally slid into her DMs after I saw that she was geotagging a nearby town and seemingly liked cute blue and white things as much as I did- that felt like enough to at least start a friendship with at the time! Thereās something extra special about forming friendships in adulthood. It feels like a conscious choice more than just circumstantial. š«¶š» We help each other with work, with motherhood. Navigating the tough parts of life in your 30s and venting to each other with zero judgment. Sending videos and memes with no additional commentary necessary (a language of its own). Now our children play together (!!!) and itās just a whole new world there too. So glad I sent her that DM asking for a coffee date five years agoā¦ that coffee shop we went to might not be around anymore but our friendship sure is thriving!

Now that school is back in session and summer travels have come to a close, I can feel my social calendar filling up a bit more. Pickleball, needlepoint club, ice cream/library playdates, GNOs at Chiliās... Even as an extreme introvert, Iām kind of excited to have places to go and people to see and the outfits to wear again. šāļøš¤āØ (Comment āfall outfitā and Iāll send you a link to everything Iām wearing!)
Go sports! ā½ļøāš»š„ š¤ Just me and my boys on a misty Saturday morning getting muddy and having fun
