I want to start this post by saying that I was absolutely blown away by the thoughtful, sweet responses to my last post about parenting. I'm so lucky to have readers who are supportive, compassionate and willing to share their own experiences. It means the world to me that many of you took the time to leave a comment---thank you for allowing ...
Recent Outfits
I'm not going to lie, I pretty much wear my GAP maternity skinnies everyday. I was starting to get back into wearing dresses and then another cold front hit and I just gave up. These days, I just wear what's comfortable (and warm!) and these pants have made dressing for pregnancy easy. They go with almost everything, they fit great and ...
30 Weeks!
I've mentioned before that I'm lucky to have access to infant care, infant CPR and other classes via the hospital I will be delivering at so it will be nice to have some hands-on instruction and advice from experts. But one thing no one can teach you, is how to be a parent. It's the most challenging role you'll ever take on in your life---and you ...
DIY Gold Polka-Dot Art: Perfect for a Nursery, Bedroom or Any Room!
I love DIY projects---especially ones that make a big impact for little cost. When I saw this piece of art on Pinterest awhile ago, I pinned it and had intended to replicate it for our master bedroom. But when I started to design our baby girl's nursery, I thought the whimsical polka dots would actually be perfect for the space since ...
Weekend…
This morning H and I went to Precious Glance Ultrasound for our second attempt at a 3D view of our little girl. Baby girl was a little more cooperative this time and we got a few good shots of her face. It was a cool experience and I definitely recommend it to parents-to-be if you'd like to get another peek at your little one after your 20 ...
Ruched
I've talked about this in my weekly pregnancy updates, but aside from pants, I haven't been wearing a lot of maternity clothes. I'm fortunate to have a lot of looser tops in my existing wardrobe so a lot of the outfits I'm posting aren't anything new if you've been reading my blog for awhile---they just fit differently now because of my shape ...
29 Weeks!
I know I say this every week, but I can't believe how fast time is going. There are just a little less than two and a half months left before our little girl is due. So much is coming up in the next month--- baby showers, completing the nursery, classes at the hospital, finishing some of the books I'm reading...and so much more. ...
Dots for Spring
After months (and months) of wearing pretty much exclusively pants, I was so happy to finally slip into one of my favorite dresses. Getting dressed in the morning for work these days is kind of an adventure because I never quite know how things will fit since there are pieces I haven't worn in quite some time. I was happy that this J.Crew ...
91 Degrees
...is what the temperature reader in my car said when I was driving home from work. I've been wishing for warmer weather, so I certainly got what I asked for! I know I've been a horrible style blogger lately and I truly apologize to those of you who come to my blog just for that content. I know not all of my readers are interested in ...
Green for Brunch
This afternoon I met up with a bunch of my friends for brunch at Etoile in Uptown Park. I hadn't been before and the food was delicious. I had a tomato omelet with potatoes and a salad and a croissant on the side with raspberry preserves (amazing!) A lot of us wore green for St. Patrick's Day! Because it was such a beautiful day outside, I ...
