With Christmas right around the corner, there’s no doubt about it that everyone’s holiday and family traditions will be looking quite different this year. I threw a question box up on my Instagram Stories this week asking you guys what your holiday plans were looking like, and it seems like the majority of you will be laying low this year. As for us, I think we are in the same boat as many of you …
IT’S TIME!!! With the 2020 Holiday season right around the corner, I am super excited to share my Holiday Gift Guides with all of you! There’s no doubt about it that this holiday season will look a little different because, you kn0w…COVID 🤪. However, one of my all-time favorite things about the holidays, aside from the priceless family time, baking, and Christmas movies, is gift-giving. I absolutely adore shopping and picking out the perfect gift …
Okay, it’s official…I think this may be one of my favorite DIY projects EVER! I have been wanting a patched denim jacket to wear to Ryan’s games for a few years now, but could never bring myself to spend the money on one. Especially because the price tag on some of these is upwards of a few hundred dollars! So, during the off-season, I decided to gather some supplies and make one myself! And let …
Earlier this summer, Ryan and I are celebrated our THIRD wedding anniversary! AHH! Part of me wonders how it has already been three years, while the other part of me wonders how it has only been three years (haha). Since our first wedding anniversary, we have always gone the “traditional” route when it came to gift-giving. Our first year we gave traditional paper gifts, we exchanged cotton goodies on year two, and now year three …
Happy Summer, friends! It’s officially the summertime and I cannot even begin to express my excitement for this season. With everything that has been going on in the world over the last few months, it feels so great to finally have some warmer weather we can take advantage of. Not to mention, I am SO looking forward to Blair’s first summer! We have already spent so much time outside in the yard and I see …
Hey friends! Okay so during my pregnancy when Ryan and I announced that we decided to keep the gender of our sweet babe a surprise, the number one question we received was regarding our nursery! Everyone wanted to know how we were going to design a room without knowing whether or not to get pink or blue decor. And to be totally honest, I don’t even think we saw this as an issue whatsoever (haha). …
Hey friends! Since becoming a mom, I have found myself needing the occasional afternoon pick-me-up. Especially on days where our sweet little babe doesn’t feel like napping (haha). As much as I love the classic cup of hot coffee, some days you just need something a little extra, am I right?! Whether you fancy cappuccinos, lattes, or maybe my personal favorite, an Iced Caramel Macchiato, you can never go wrong when it comes to coffee. …
We are in the home stretch now, people! How is it already time to write this post?! I cannot believe it! Throughout the duration of my entire pregnancy, I kept thinking about how quickly the time was flying by. It felt as if my first two trimesters were over in the blink of an eye. But, now that we have made it to the final countdown, it seems as if time is literally standing still …
One of the BEST pieces of advice I received during my pregnancy was to do some food prep before baby made their arrival! And when you think about it, this is such a genius idea, isn’t it?! I mean, what new mom will have the time to spend cooking meals the first couple of weeks postpartum? Knowing myself, I would probably resort to ordering take-out or eating frozen pizzas whenever I found myself too tired …
Hello, my friends! I hope you all are doing your best to enjoy some time laying low at home and finding ways to stay productive during this difficult time. We have been doing surprisingly well over here- focusing on nesting for baby and enjoying the last few weeks Ryan and I have together as a family of two. I must admit though…earlier this week I started to sense that Ryan was getting (just a tad) …
