I kind of got wrapped up in life and almost forgot to post these photos from our trip to Tampa a couple of weeks ago. I actually haven’t been nearly as great about documenting everyday experiences on my blog because of Instagram and TikTok. It almost feels like I’m double dipping in the memories, or…
Is it too early to start planning Jack’s Easter basket?? I know he’s just a baby, but my mom always did the cutest holiday gifts for my sister and me. I’ve seen a lot of debate about moms going “overboard” for holidays and birthday parties for their kids and feeling pressured by things like Pinterest…
Oh man. Jack went on his first flight!!! Even taking out the pandemic, I think I would have been just as nervous flying with a baby. There are just so many things that can go “wrong.” From major issues to minor (but annoying) inconveniences. Not to mention, the logistics of it all. I wanted to…
A fun, quick round up of some darling things that have caught my eye. This is usually the time of year where I’m ready for warm-weather clothes, but we are quite a ways off…. Window shopping it is for now! Minnow Swim x Brock Collection Dress Warning: This is expensive! Ugh, I am lusting…
We had a pretty straightforward week getting back into our normal little routine after being away. I was nervous because we definitely had gone “off script” with Jack while down in Florida, but we all settled back in nicely. And just as we’re getting settled back in… Jack and I are off this weekend to…
We may be back from Tampa, but I can’t help browsing all of the cute warm weather new arrivals. We had such a wonderful trip. I was honestly in denial coming home to snow, ha! It was great to spend quality time with my family, and I hosted my first book signing at Oxford Exchange….
These posts have been highly requested! I’ve been keeping a running list of our “most used” items during Jack’s first year for new moms. I personally found it so confusing to know what we really needed and when we needed it. Of course, every baby and every family is different but I thought it would be…
It was nice to be snow birds for a few days down in Florida! It actually wasn’t all that warm for most of our trip. (Tuesday was pretty chilly and rainy… I regretted not packing any kind of coat!) But then it was at least sunny with leaves on trees and that made it more…
I’m still trying to come to terms with what my style is right now. I feel all out of sorts with so many life changes over the past couple of years. The lockdown, pregnancy body changes, motherhood… I definitely find myself reaching for more basics than anything else. Especially since we’re slowly starting to do…
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!
With @marthastewart48’s @netflix documentary releasing today, I invited some friends (👋🏻 @samanthavarvel and @shihstitches) over to my studio to peruse my new-to-me collection of @marthastewart Living magazines. I grew up with a “Martha Stewart Mom” and read her magazines every month alongside her. They have brought back so many memories, and they are serving up new inspiration now! I used to want to be a magazine editor, I’m sure influenced by magazines like Martha Stewart Living, and now that I’ve had a chance to revisit them, it’s not a crazy surprise I ended up as a blogger-turned-influencer. I’ve always loved this, and it’s a good thing. 🫶🏻
