Another week of very realistic outfits that I wore! LAST WEEK’S WIN: Biggest win was being able to lean into work more. I’ve really scaled back how many hours I spend working as I lean more into this stage of motherhood. This is the busiest time of year though I leaned hard into work. Grateful…
This is a niche gift guide for…. the needlepointers in your life! Honestly needlepointers are easy to please and delight. Even a gift card to their favorite LNS (needlepoint store) would be well received and I guarantee you will make their day. There are always more canvases and more thread and more accessories to hoard,…
I’m not exactly feeling my best physically at the moment and so when I find something that I feel great in, I want to shout it from the rooftops. I keep reaching for this sweater dress when I need to dress up a little bit or whenever I need a little mood boost or whenever…
Grandparents are notoriously difficult to shop for! They seemingly have everything and “grandparent” also encompasses so many different age groups. I think the key here is to be thoughtful with your gifting. Are they an experience kind of person or someone who’s very sentimental? Do they have hobbies they love or want to explore more?…
When I think of holiday outfits, my brain almost always goes towards something to wear to a festive Christmas party. Always fun! But most days I’m just in casual outfits for everyday living. I still want to be festive though. When in doubt, wear red. I think red is my best color and I don’t…
This was such a fun guide for me to put together. I have always loved shopping for little kids, but wow it’s even more fun as a parent! I tried to really put this together thinking about what has worked for us (i.e. what’s tried and true) and also added a couple of things that…
Here’s what I’ve been up the past two weeks according to my camera roll…. My sister came into town and helped me so much with this MacKenzie Childs campaign and, of course, we had a lot of fun with Mr. Jack. Soooo much time at the park and biking and scootering around town. We do a…
My favorite gift guide every year to put together…. GIFTS FOR BOOK LOVERS! I feel like people who like books are actually very easy to shop for. (Like who wouldn’t want just a big gift card to their favorite book store or, better yet, an in person shopping spree!) Luckily for us, there are also…
This week was a whirlwind! I’m feeling pretty content and grateful right now– my cup is full. We have zero (!!!!) weekend plans and I’m looking forward to a low key couple of days with Jack and Mike at home. ONE // Help Me Pick a Dress for Thanksgiving I need your help deciding what…
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!
