This week was pretty uneventful in a good way. Good balance of productivity and giving myself grace for quieter moments. I have felt more creative than I have in a while. Between crafting and writing and editing video and shooting content alone, I have been flexing that muscle quite a bit. I like it a…
I’ve been watching a weird mix of stuff lately. Thought I’d share what’s been keeping my interest and would love to know what you’re watching too. I have not been able to sit down and watch movies– I don’t have the attention span for it at the moment. Mike and I tried to watch a…
One of the best ways, in my experience, to manage anxiety is through biofeedback exercises. I have been a highly anxious and sensitive person as you likely know if you’ve been reading here for a bit. I don’t think there’s a cure for anxiety; I really believe it’s just how I’m wired. But actively managing…
Guys, you’ve let me down! I’m kidding, but when I posted about a new wireless bra I got a thousand people responding saying they only wore wireless bras and welcoming me into the club. Why has no one told me!!! If you haven’t joined the club yet, as the newest member myself let me tell…
File this one under: Carly Camouflage. I actually ordered this top months ago on pre-order. When it showed up, it was everything I could have dreamed of. The shirt is a little more structured in person than I thought it would be. Feels way more elevated with a textured eyelet fabric and shoulder pads giving…
One of my friends started sharing a daily list of things she was grateful for on Instagram. Honestly, I loved reading her list at the end of the day. The more she did it, the more I realized I was running through my own things to be grateful for and started to share my own lists…
Hello, another two weeks in quarantine for the books. Going through my phone’s photos to see what I’ve been up to is pretty funny because all the days in my head have pretty much blended together. Even looking at the photos it’s pretty hard to distinguish one day from the next. Groomers were finally deemed…
Hi! How are you guys doing? Did you have a good week? Bad week? Up and down? Just wanted to send some positive vibes your way. And below is a picture of Teddy perched on the sofa looking as charming and sweet as ever. Here’s what has been on my radar this week: ONE //…
I think I had one or two grey hairs in high school, but they started multiplying in college. Not a ton but five strands… which turned into about ten. They never really bothered me but one time a guy I was seeing offered to pluck them out (I was 21 and not the most secure)…
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 😛
#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!
