This is a post that's difficult for me to write because like most new mothers, I'm devastated that I have to go back to work tomorrow. Twelve weeks just doesn't seem like enough time. You're just settling into motherhood and your baby is looking at you, smiling at you, rolling over and starting to grasp toys---and it's so exciting to watch your ...

My Updated Breastfeeding Story & Why I Exclusively Pump
I really wanted to write this post as a follow-up to my original breastfeeding journey post because I want to offer support to other moms who may be going through the same thing. But before I get started, I wanted to share with you a movement called "I Support You," created by three bloggers---Mama by the Bay, Fearless Formula ...
Sip N’ See
On Sunday, my friend Bethany hosted a little sip n' see for some of our friends so everyone could meet Harper. A true southern belle, she showed up at my house and in 15 minutes transformed my kitchen island into a pretty area for sips and treats.

Fall Baby Picks & GAP Friends & Family Sale

Saturday Happenings…

We decided to ...

August Beauty Picks from H-E-B
If you've read my blog for awhile, then you know I'm the type of gal who likes to stick to with a signature look. I love trying new products, but sometimes I hesitate to try different products because I don't want to deviate too much from my day-to-day routine.

The Perfect Flip Flop
Follow my blog with Bloglovin The sweltering heat in Houston has made it nearly impossible to leave the house wearing anything other than shorts, a tee and a pair of flip flops. So I was excited when I was approached by Hari Mari, a company that makes flip flops using high-grade recyclable rubber and foam, so they can enjoy a long life ...

I have found a way to make my late night and early morning pumping sessions very productive lately. I check out some of my favorite online shops and daily deal sites to see if there's anything worth purchasing. And speaking of new purchases, a lot of my readers have been wondering if or when I will resume outfit posts and the answer is hopefully ...
