It has been a goal of mine for a while to cook more. I even did a midyear check in where I wanted to step up and really commit to doing this. When you’re making a goal, you’re supposed to make it measurable and all that good stuff. For me, I wanted to set a…
An October Friday the 13th?! Spooky! This week was a bit of a tough one. I was feeling a little under the weather to begin with, then add some weird pregnancy symptoms, and devastating world events… I’ve been trying to stay positive. I’m actually going to see my best friend in Boston today for an…
I just love fall athleisure! I’ll take any chance to throw on a cozy pullover with leggings for a day running errands, chasing Jack around the park, or hanging out at home. We have been having the best crisp fall mornings, and I honestly can’t explain how much joy our morning walks have brought me…
I love dressing for fall, but my growing bump makes it harder for me to feel motivated and be creative. Roundups like the best fall boots and best cashmere sweaters still have me dreaming of fall outfit ideas though…. so I thought it’d be fun to go through the archives of the past few years!…
This week was a little bit of everything in terms of life and weather. We had a 90 degree day and we had to turn our heat on for the first time! It’s just that time of year. My parents were also in town for the weekend– unfortunately, the big fall festival they came for…
Wow am I thankful sweater dresses are totally in right now. There are so many great styles to choose from…. and they make getting dressed in the fall with a bump a breeze. I felt the same way about smocked dresses in 2021 when I was pregnant with Jack. Finding a style that I feel good…
Here’s what we’ve been up to the past two weeks according to my camera roll…. We have made numerous trips to the Farm at Green Village for pumpkins and mums. It’s such a good kid-friendly outing too. Jack was cracking up that the skeleton was “taking a bath.” This is my favorite spot for picking…
Had such a nice week! It was pretty low-key and that’s just the way I like it! Jack had his first field trip and I got to tag along. I really, really loved the baby days of motherhood (and can’t wait to experience it again next year), but wow it is awesome getting to do…
Here’s what I bought on Amazon in September according to my order history! Some things to get in the fall spirit, a few pieces of clothing for me, and fun things for Jack. Nest Pumpkin Chai Candle // Nest’s holiday candles are the best!! I think they’re worth it because they burn so well and…
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!
