I love adding touches of black and white to both our home and my closet and I especially love black and white patterns to add a little dimension and interest to a room. In today's post, I'm sharing some of my recent (and not so recent) favorite B&W purchases. The first is this black and white striped light with tassel from the Emily + ...
Fun (DIY) Toddler Halloween Activities
If I'm being honest, my favorite thing about Halloween is candy. Everywhere. In massive bulk packages and in bowls on people's desks for the entire month of October. And don't even get me started on Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Yes. Yes to all of that goodness. Since I don't want my toddler as hopped up on sugar as I am the entire month, I try to ...
Baby #2 Essentials with buybuy BABY
When I was pregnant with Harper, I had the nursery decorated, clothes washed and everything perfectly organized awhile before she was born. This time around, things have been quite different since we moved in my third trimester and we've been so focused on getting the house together (don't even ask about the nursery--- thank goodness he will be ...
Our Weekend…
Happy Sunday! I'm blogging from my favorite room ever right now--- our playroom. It's also the only room that has a TV right now, so... These next few weekends are kind of nerve-wracking for me. I feel a sense of "this baby could come at any time" which I did not feel at all with Harper. I still have my external version scheduled for tomorrow and ...
The Internet is Back
(our subway tile kitchen backsplash--- I've waited a long time for this!) After four collective hours on the phone with AT&T (don't ask, I can't even) and over two weeks of waiting, we finally have internet at the new house. This momentous occasion means I can get back to blogging! First of all--- thank you to everyone here and on IG that ...
Third Trimester To-Do List & Some Exciting News!
Happy Thursday! Third trimester to-do list: Wrap-up major projects at work before going on leave. Wash and organize baby clothes. Pick-up newborn stuff we still need. Move. We had talked about searching for a new home before I was even pregnant with baby #2 because our existing home’s layout wasn’t ideal for our growing family. We wanted to ...
Our Weekend + A Few Labor Day Sale Picks
It was so nice to have an extra day off with the Labor Day holiday! I definitely needed those extra 24 hours. As you've noticed, things have been quiet here on the blog. Work has been incredibly busy and I've had several very early morning starts which doesn't leave me with much energy in the evening to blog. I also mentioned this on IG, but we ...
Our Weekend…
We've had one of those weeks in our household. Where everyone is exhausted and on top of that sweet Harper caught a tummy bug that was just brutal. She started to get sick on Friday and so between her illness and my seemingly perpetual exhaustion, our Saturday involved a lot of screen time and book-reading on the couch. Thankfully little miss is ...
Favorite Hair Tools
I've talked before about my blowout routine and hair washing routine in previous posts. I'm pretty much still doing the same routine as I always have but I wanted to share some of my favorite hair tools with y'all since the right tools (and products) can make all the difference! First off are my hot tools--- I really only use a hair dryer and ...
Our Weekend…
Happy Sunday! This is totally going to turn into a "things we love" post because our weekend was full of play dates, birthday parties and naps. So, the usual. Harper loves her cat backpack from Baby Gap. It also comes in this sweet gray owl version. She looks like such a big girl in it though…which is both sweet and traumatizing. Why do they have ...
