I was a little high strung this week. I try my best to keep my control-freakness in check but sheesh, I struggled big time one day. But you know what made up for that? It was 70 degrees on Wednesday. I walked into the gym (which, by the way, I don’t know how I used to…
I’m going to be making a bigger announcement post, but (!!!) my boyfriend and I are moving in together next week! The list of things that have to get done seems to be getting longer by the day. As excited as I am, one sad thing is that I can no longer use my monogrammed bedding….
When I say that I take a bath every single day, I really do mean it. And this is in addition to taking regular showers. (I also take a shower after I bathe because I think it’s more hygienic.) It has become a saving grace for the winter months and post-workouts. My trainer at the gym has gotten…
I freaking love pajamas. It’s probably not normal how much I love a good set of pajamas. At the end of a long day, I love slipping into a pair. Or just lounging a bit longer on the weekends. Because I walk the dogs first thing every morning, I immediately put on leggings and a…
This is the perfect post from Maxie for a Monday! I always have the best intentions at the beginning of the week, but by the end I know there were moments where I could have used my time more wisely. Hoping this will serve as a guide this week! 5 Questions to Ask to Make…
I put “fashion week” in quotes for a couple of reasons. First of all, I only went to one show and it was just a presentation. And second, fashion week has dramatically changed the past couple of seasons, so it’s not what it used to be. For better or for worse! I’ve always enjoyed my experiences with fashion week, particularly when I was living in the city. However, I have determined that it’s really just… not for me.
Popping in this weekend to share some super adorable finds, all under $40!
One of those weeks where nothing quite went as planned. But to focus on some positives… I had incredible customer service from ADP (my payroll service) and UPS; I feel like great customer service needs to be praised so I’m all about taking surveys and sending the best possible feedback up the chain. I also…
It’s no secret that I love to read. I spend at least few minutes every night reading, but I’ve also gotten super into listening to audiobooks. Certain books don’t work as audiobooks, but I’ve had great luck with listening to nonfiction books. Recently I downloaded The Little Book of Hygge. It’s under four hours so it was…
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!
