Summer is unofficially here and let me be the first one to tell you: The Riordan family is ready! We’ve been eating outside every night (as long as it’s not raining). We’ve been playing with bubbles, scooting with our cousins, and practicing our bike riding skills. I just rewashed all of our bathing suits to get…
J. Crew is having their annual spring event today with so many great pieces discounted up to 50% off. It’s definitely worth checking out, especially if you’re looking to refresh your wardrobe for spring! You know I can’t resist anything striped, especially if it’s blue and white. I love this lady jacket, and the gold…
I am having a little bit of a “Halloween Hangover” mixed with “Holiday Dread.” Dread maybe isn’t the right word. But I’m almost in denial that it’s November and Thanksgiving is around the corner and then Christmas will be here before we know it…. Work is kicking up and so is this pregnancy and I’m…
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…
I love a good tote…. a lot. They’re SO versatile! I usually “rotate” through them, using one for a while before switching to another. Since becoming a mom, I’ve also found it’s easiest to keep a dedicated tote stocked with all of Jack’s essentials. Right now, I’m using the striped tote I designed with Neely…
For as long as I can remember, J. Crew has been my go-to for swimsuits. I find shopping for swimsuits to be incredibly intimidating and it can be frustrating when you don’t feel good in one. I love that J. Crew offers tons of styles and silhouettes in a wide range of patterns, prints, and colors….
I’m so excited for the Fourth of July! We’ll be on Nantucket again this year and I can’t wait to go to the beach and get an ice cream cone from The Juice Bar! As for what to wear, there are so many great outfit ideas for the Fourth of July, whether you’re heading to a…
As you’re reading this I’m probably heading back home from a quick trip to Nantucket to shoot my collection with Neely & Chloe!!! We’ve been working on this for over a year, so to touch and feel and SEE the pieces in real life is amazing…. can’t wait to reveal more over the next few weeks….
It’s been years since I’ve shared some of my favorite Instagram accounts to follow. It changes over time and I find myself gravitating towards and away different types of accounts. When I open my Instagram account, I really want to be inspired by what I see. That’s not to say that I need to see picture perfect…
… 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!
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. 🫶🏻
