Hope you enjoy and thank you for all of your wonderful birthday wishes + continual support of me and my blog.

#rStheCon Recap + What I Wore To The rewardStyle Conference
Happy Friday! Another rStheCon is in the books and I can’t wait to share more details about our 5-day trip to Dallas! I look forward to this trip every year – I love seeing my friends I talk to via text nearly daily in person and all of the events are so fun and a great way to network with other women who are content creators.

Kids & Screen Time: Our Approach
I’ve seen so many of my fellow bloggers address kids and screen time lately and I’ve been asked about it a lot in my Instagram DMs. So, I thought it would be a good time to share my thoughts on the topic! As a preface to this post, I think all families can and should do what works for their children and family life, and this is just our ...
A Day In My Life As a Working Mom
“A day in the life” is one of my most requested posts! I get it - I’ve seen other bloggers do these posts and I’m always so intrigued by how people schedule their days, whether they work from home, in an office or stay at home. It’s always interesting to get a peek into other people’s lives, routines and schedules. My workday is different every ...
Friday Q & A
How has your experience been purchasing furniture online? This is SUCH a good question! As long as the return policy is reasonable, I’ve had mostly positive experiences.

One of the questions I'm asked most is how I find "balance" as a working mom of two. As you know, I work both outside of the home full-time and run ...
35 Random Things About Me
I turned 35 last month so I thought I’d share 35 random things about me. Some are funny, some are serious and some are just plain odd. Enjoy! Before we get to the 35 things, let's talk about this striped deep-v dress I got for our upcoming beach vacation to wear as a cover-up (for $18, it's a steal!) At 5'10, I'm too tall to wear this as a day ...
Motherhood Confessions: Parenting When You Had a Toxic Parent
This is a post that was difficult to write, but one I have always kept in my drafts to share when the moment felt right. Sometimes I wonder what value there is in sharing such personal and challenging things about myself online, but then I remember a time I read a blog post or article by another woman that made me feel supported, understood and ...
Goodbye Sweet Lulu
It was a very difficult week for our family. We said goodbye to our sweet Lulu, who was with us for 13 years on this earth. I still remember the day I took him home and all of our adventures in between. He was like a tiny blonde ball of fluff with the sweetest little face you’d ever seen. Lulu suffered from numerous health problems that started ...
