Back with another two weeks’ worth of photos from my camera roll. I took advantage of a high energy day (a rarity for me at the moment between first trimester and the summer heat) and took Jack out on a very long walk. We had so much fun looking for all the pretty flowers! I…
OMG. I do not know how I’m functioning right now. I feel woefully behind on everything. Behind on chores. Behind on work. Behind on everything. I’m relieved my pregnancy is no longer a secret (!!!!) because I’m excited but also because I definitely have a bump and it was so hard to share things… I…
I love end of summer style when it starts to cool down just enough to throw on a sweater with shorts or wear a striped button up and jeans. If you’re feeling inspired to do a bit of shopping, I rounded up some great transitional pieces under $100 perfect for the end of summer. Relaxed…
A lot has changed since I graduated from college 11 years ago (no 18-year-old TikTokers posting insane GRWM videos, haha) but at the same time…. a lot hasn’t changed? It’s a universal experience, being young and living on your own for the first time. You have so much to learn about how to take care…
We are thrilled to share that we are having another baby boy in February!!! It was a more difficult journey this time around so this news is extra joyous for us. I’m excited that our family is growing and I’m particularly excited for Jack. It’s a totally different experience being pregnant with a toddler for…
Here’s what I read during the month of July! Happy reading! LOVE, THEORETICALLY by Ali Hazelwood 4/5 Stars I’ve been hearing great things about Ali Hazelwood’s books and I’m so happy I got to finally see what the hype is all about. I really enjoyed this– it falls under the RomCom genre, which isn’t typically my…
While I’m not exactly ready to shop fall styles for myself just yet, I have been eyeing some styles for Jack. We have nailed down his summer wardrobe and now I’m looking forward to putting together his fall wardrobe. I have kind of learned my lesson when it comes to kids’ clothing that it’s…. honestly?…
I don’t really know what it was about this week, but it took me out. I swear I’m crawling into the weekend. The below picture sums up what my spare time has looked like. Trying to finish Mike’s needlepoint stocking and rewatching Anne with an E– it’s so good. My favorite way to unwind. Here’s what’s…
This summer is flying by, and I can’t believe it’s already August! We have a fun month ahead, from heading upstate for a week to Mike’s family’s lake house to Jack’s second birthday. I’ve been doing a bit of Amazon shopping to prep and wanted to share what I bought on Amazon in July. Frederick…
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!
