Rabbit, rabbit! I am looking forward to a fun October with the boys!! LAST WEEK’S WIN: I got some sourdough starter and made my first loaf! Wow, I know I’m extremely late to the “trend,” but I’m here to let you know that it’s never too late to get into this. Literally one loaf in and…
I’m writing this as September winds down. This month absolutely flew by– especially compared to August which seemed to stretch on for eternity. September is usually my favorite month of the entire year. Still giving warm vibes but dipping back into routines and getting a taste of fall…. but this year it went by so…
This post is sponsored by Audible! When Jack was born, I had no idea how quickly my little baby would turn into a busy, curious toddler with endless energy and a fierce sense of independence. At three years old, he’s got his own little personality (and opinions!) and keeps me on my toes all day…
This week was both boring and a doozy! One thing that’s tough about my job is that when it rains it pours. I can go two weeks with nothing due and then all of a sudden every campaign is due within 48 hours. Always keeps you on your toes. Mike got Rory and Jack outfits for…
Transitional dressing in between seasons can be tricky. I’ve found that having a few key pieces in rotation makes it easy to build a wardrobe that works for those in-between days. If you know me, you know I love a good cardigan sweater. This collared cable-knit cardigan looks so cozy. It’s chunky and warm, but the collar…
I’ve been really impressed by the budget-friendly fall finds this year. Maybe it’s because of how popular denim and minis are right now– whatever the reason, I’m not complaining! For today I rounded up some of the best fall dresses under $100, plus a couple others that I couldn’t resist adding to the mix. Best…
September is one of my favorite months and I am feeling a little sad at just how quickly it’s flying by. I feel like I haven’t had a chance to catch my breath or even enjoy the month? I am also realizing how behind I am on my monthly goals just because it feels like…
When this little black dress showed up at my house, I immediately put it on and felt amazing in it. It fits like a dream and has been a great thing to have just “on standby” for various events. As my calendar starts to fill up again now that we’re in a good groove with…
What a week! My mom has been here for a couple of days, which has been so fun and nice. We have been looking forward to this, especially since we really haven’t had a lot of time alone together in years. Nothing in 2020 because of the pandemic, then I was pregnant, and then once…
… 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. 🫶🏻
