With my creative juices flowing right now, I am really embracing all things DIY. I exhausted the fabric I had at home (even cutting into two table runners, ha) for handmade masks to donate. I’m still making masks, to donate but also for friends and family, as face coverings are now required for everyone. (And…
I’ve been a little obsessed with all things Nancy Meyers. It’s an always-obsession, but during quarantine I’ve been watching my favorites on repeat it seems. The Parent Trap, The Intern, Something’s Gotta Give, Father of the Bride… etc. They’re just FEEL GOOD movies and even if you’re not in the mood to follow a plot, the visuals alone are…
I almost forgot to write this post! We’re here again at another Friday. This week kind of flew by somehow? I had a few good days and a couple not-so-good days. Which I guess isn’t too bad. Here’s what has been on my radar this week: ONE // DIY Ear Savers This is a really…
I needed to come on here really quick to share that some of my recent purchases (quarantine approved) are marked down quite a bit during J. Crew’s “Sale on Sale.” CASHMERE HOODIE // This is an additional 50% off right now. It’s definitely still a bit of a splurge, but I had been eyeing the…
So one challenge I knew I was going to overcome was how to shoot ~content~ at home. I know content can be such a gross word, but…. this is my job so I’ve gotta do what I gotta do. My BC routine was to shoot twice a week with Carter (my photographer). She came out…
I love getting massages. They used to freak me out because I was so self-conscious and not totally comfortable in my skin. At some point when I lived in NYC I started getting massages regularly because they were so inexpensive. (I’m not a spa-snob. If someone gives a great massage, I don’t care if it’s a…
We’ve been doing Zoom calls with Mike’s family a couple of times a week. Sometimes they’re themed but they’re always fun. On Sunday’s call we all went around talking about where we want to travel to next, once we’re totally safe to, whenever that may be. Greece, Peru, Italy, the South of France all were…
I’m still solidly in sweater season even though I’ve switched my winter clothes over to warm weather… sweaters are still a large part of my wardrobe. Especially being at home? Sweaters are like security blankets. Cozy and comfortable, but not, like, a sweatshirt. These photos are from February (!?) but I thought I’d still post…
I wanted to bake something this weekend. I know there’s all these memes and what not about baking banana bread, but I think there’s something to it! The ingredients are pretty minimal and bread can be breakfast, a snack, or dessert. (I’d think twice about having a slice of cake at 9am but have no…
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!
