I wanted to do a fun round up of summer family photo outfits. These have been so fun to put together and I’ve been getting requests for more family photo outfit ideas, so I’m more than happy to oblige. It kind of feels like the old school blogging days! With our own family photos, my…
I started shopping for an upcoming trip and was having way too much fun. Needed to pull everything into a post for you guys, too! I have a feeling I’m not the only one looking for red, white, and blue ahead of the Fourth of July! TOTE // CREAM FLAG SWEATER (also love this $30…
What a fun week over here! Jack had his last day of preschool, we went to the pond every day that they were open (it’s still pre-season), we celebrated our niece’s birthday. There were dance parties, trips to the book store, special ice cream cones, and many (many!) rides down the froggie slide. Hat //…
I think there may be an unintentional theme with my Amazon purchases last month… bubbles! Bubbles have been a big hit in the Riordan household lately. We are obsessed. Santa brought Jack a toddler-sized bubble leaf blower for Christmas, and he got the classic lawn mower for his birthday, so we’ve been playing outside with bubbles a lot. I’ve been…
Fall is my favorite season, but summer is definitely the easiest to dress for. I love a dress you can throw on and go (I’ve been wearing this one the most) and the bags are always the cutest!! Adding any more to my wardrobe would be excessive….but that’s not stopping me from rounding up the…
Another week of outfits! I kind of love that I started and ended this week’s looks with the same dress in a different color. I am, if nothing else, consistent. LAST WEEK’S WIN: I mentioned last week that I had some fun plans and everything went off without a hitch! Honestly, it was a lot of…
I had a great month of reading! I feel like after months and months of being super sick and tired while pregnant (too tired to read and very low ability to concentrate…) and surviving the “fourth trimester” and getting Rory into a good bedtime routine, I finally have the time to read more substantial chunks of…
I haven’t done a diary post in a while. I stopped right before giving birth in February– the last one I did was actually on February 3 and life changed so dramatically since then. We said goodbye Hamilton and welcomed Rory the following week. It felt hard to even catch my breath there for a while….
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…
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!
