I deliberately didn’t title this post with self-care, solely because it’s been an overused phrase. In fact, I think it’s so overused that it’s almost lost its meaning. Self-care can involve putting on a face mask or using a body scrub in a tub, but it’s not the face mask and it’s not the body scrub. It’s the…
Last year, when Jack was a whopping six months old, “he” sent out valentines to a few friends. These were his cousins and the kids of our friends. I bought little valentines from Minted and vintage sticker sheets from Etsy and mailed them all around the country! Maybe a little over the top, but it…
This has been an incredibly hard week. I know I’m vague-blogging and I hope you can forgive me. I just don’t have a ton of brain power at the moment. I really try not to wish away time, but I found myself just counting down the days until this week was over. Woof. Anyway, feeling…
Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and if you’re in need of cute Valentine’s Day gift inspiration, I put together a fun little round-up of all things pink and girly. Although Mike and I don’t do gifts, I actually prefer the idea of getting gifts for yourself and/or your girlfriends. I’m obsessed with CV by…
It has been brought to my attention that I missed doing my 2022 favorites! I did include my top products in this post a couple of weeks ago, but this is one of my favorite posts to reflect on year after year. (I know I’m very late and I know we’re well past year end recaps,…
Clearly I was not very…. inventive with my outfits this week. But keeping it real 😉 In my defense, it’s been grey and gloomy. Like gloomy gloomy. Some rain, some wet snow. We hunkered down this past weekend at home too for some extra family time. LAST WEEK’S WIN: Jack got to have a sleepover…
It was a bit of a…. week over here. Just a lot of moving parts as our bathroom renovation continues. You kind of think it won’t be too much of a disruption, but with a toddler and a small house, it’s been dictating our lives! Of course, it will all be worth it though!! Can’t…
A warm weather vacation sounds incredible right now! I am not a fan of winter in the slightest, and I’ll be brutally honest here and say the winter is already wearing me down. Since it’s only the middle of January, I’m starting to think that planning a warm weather getaway might be just what I…
It’s time for another “ten things” post. I stole this idea from my friend Kelly– but it’s basically just an old school blog post where I share the first ten things that come to mind… Ready, set, go! 1. SOUP SZN // I am in my soup season right now. I don’t know what it is…
lucky is an understatement 🍀
(ps thank you @redwagonboston for saving the day with this sweater!!)
Just wait until….
they start slipping on their own shoes and
sing their favorite songs out of the blue and
Run to the window to watch the garbage truck come by and
Figure out how to get the fridge to spit out ice which is soooo funny and
Hug their friends and
Help you sweep the floor and wipe down the tables and
Make a fishy face and rawr like a dinosaur and neighhhh like a horse and choooo choooo as the train goes by.
just wait! 💫
Little moments from our Copenhagen trip. I looooooved it so much 🇩🇰💫 Shared all the details on my blog today if you want to know more about what we did, where we went, and (maybe most importantly) what we ate!

I am the personification of that meme going around about putting off a task for three months and it only taking 15 minutes 🫣 It’s one of my worst habits. This week I’ve been focusing on doing those DUMB tasks that I stress the eff out about and they only end up taking minutes. 🤦🏻♀️ Called my insurance company to fix an issue, took exactly 12 minutes. Uploaded a copy of an ID for a tax document, all I had to do was retrieve said ID from my wallet. Cleared off the mountain of things off my desk in under 10 minutes.
Feeling so much better and those little productive bursts helped me better tackle the actual tasks that needed more of my time 💪🏻
Happy almost Friday!
On this last day of February, we (finally!) had a proper snow day 🛷 Jack stood outside saying, “what’s this?! What’s this?!” and he went down the hill with me, alone, and with friends! I am *exhausted* but it was such a fun day.
Having such a great trip here. Always a good sign when you’re looking up flights to return… and when you have to unbutton your jeans after one too many pastries. We 🤍 you Copenhagen.
