Thank you Nordstrom for sponsoring this post!One night, while watching my Instagram stories, I came upon a very convincing review of a CLÉ DE PEAU BEAUTÉ concealer.

Growing up, I loved to read – I would spend hours in my room reading Babysitter’s Club and Sweet Valley Twins novels…and R.L. Stine – anyone else?! I was a huge bookworm and found so much joy in reading.I read less and less as I got older, eventually not reading at all when I became a mom. Life was busy with family, kids, work and my blog. I ...
I was delighted when one of my favorite Houston photographers, Nicole Young, asked if Harper and Lincoln would be her models for the Santa photo experience she's offering!

Thank you Walmart for sponsoring this post!My children are now 6 and 4 and though I've gotten a ton of questions about the topic, I've never dedicated a full post to potty training - until now!

I want, more than anything, for it to be jacket weather on a regular basis here in Houston, but alas, it seems like we won't get cooler temps until November.Having said that, I know a lot of y'all live in parts of the country and outside of the US where it's gloriously cool. Color me jealous! Today's post breaks down some amazon coat finds I ...
One of the most asked about items in our home is the Kerra Sideboard we purchased from Ballard Designs. I got it during one of their 30% off sales and it’s truly one of my favorite pieces of furniture.I love its bamboo detailing on the cabinet fronts and the unique design on the legs – it also holds a ton on the inside, which is particularly ...
Thank you Walmart for sponsoring this post!Have you ever found something so good, you text your friends about it? That's how I felt when I put on these $26 jeans from Walmart (yes, $26!!!)
