This is going to be a Two Part post… Part 1 As if it wasn’t obvious enough: I LOVE Lilly! Graduation parties are a pretty big deal at my high school. I really didn’t want to have a solo one because I think it’s a little ostentatious. Soccer Mom insisted that I have one at…
When I was home this weekend, I visited my favorite store, of course! I went on Monday morning to look at all the springy clothes! I lusted over the Lilly skorts and Vineyard Vines dresses. The owner, whom I absolutely adore, told me they were getting a new shipment of clothes that afternoon. She assured…
SHH!!! I’m about to reveal one of my best kept secrets. OK.. Confession: I don’t keep it a secret it all! I tell everyone, so why not tell my blog friends, too! I’ve already proclaimed my obsession with bows and ribbon. “Where do I get my ribbon?” you may ask.. THE BEST WEBSITE IN THE…
With spring just around the corner, I’m dying to bring out my “springy” clothes! I seriously cannot wait to wear my shift dresses and critter shorts! While fun prints and bright colors are exciting, sometimes it’s nice to just be able to throw on a comfortable outfit, while still looking put together. I think the…
SEVEN THINGS YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT ME: 1. I don’t sleep with a pillow. I haven’t since I was little. All my friends thought I was crazy when I would have sleepovers. It’s also a little disappointing because my pillows in my dorm are so cute (pink and monogrammed, of course)! 2. I’m a…
I am in love with the unseasonably warm weather. I thought that I would enjoy going to school in the north (Yea, I know, DC isn’t really the north) but I have certainly missed the warm winters from back home. There is one problem with the warm weather, however: THE HEAT STAYS ON. (Ironically, we…
After a long week of classes and exams, I always end up feeling stressed. My teammates and friends will be the first to admit that I am not fun to be around when I’m feeling stressed. One of my favorite things to do to relax on the weekends is to bake. (My floormates definitely agree!)…
My friend, knowing my love for pink and green, gave me the absolute cutest gift for Graduation. Scout Bags by Bungalow are one of the most versatile totes around. Since the bags are laminated, they can be brought to the beach or used as an alternative grocery bag. The bag that I have has a pink…
I was looking online for cute headbands the other day and stumbled across the cutest website. To enter the site, you have to click on a little mallard duck. Hello? CUTE! Tucker Blair has a product line featuring Needlepoint designs. It’s not something you see everyday. The cute designs are fabulously preppy. I fell in…
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!
