Our morning started off early---with the nursery chandelier and curtains installed at 8:30 a.m. followed by a trip to Rice Village to pick up our glider. I'm so thrilled with how the nursery looks right now. It's such a beautiful, serene space. I think it's actually turning out better than I had imagined as it all comes together---and it's ...
28 weeks!
Happy Wednesday to all of my readers and major thanks to all of you moms who took the time to comment on my 27 week post! I loved hearing all of your advice and stories about the first few weeks and months of being a new mom. I got the most amazing news ever this week! One of my best friends from Canada is flying in for one of my baby ...
27 weeks
With just a few months left in my pregnancy (where did the time go?) I'm thinking a lot about the arrival of our little one and what life will be like once she's here. I've been reading parenting and infant care books and consulting with other moms, but at the end of the day, most moms will tell you "every baby is different"--- and they're ...
Worth It: Bag Organizers
When I purchased my Louis Vuitton Neverfull GM I immediately ordered a bag shaper/organizer for it. Why? Because the bag is such a big investment and it's such a shame to see a pricey bag that's meant to last a long time sagging because an insert wasn't used. The inserts provide pockets for organization---but more importantly, they ...
Weekend Updates
Today H and I went to the mall for a quick trip to pick up some makeup items I had run out of. I repurchased Bobbi Brown's blush in "peony" (the only blush I wear) and realized that this is the first time I have ever repurchased it which means my original one lasted more than two years (yay!). I also got a new tube of Urban Decay ...
New Sunglasses For Spring!
I wear sunglasses every single day. I have sensitive eyes so I wear them to drive and also anytime I'm outdoors (I'm sure many of you who seem to squint at even the tiniest ray of light from the sun can relate). Protecting your eyes is important for health reasons and sunglasses also happen to be one of my favorite accessories, so it's a ...
26 Weeks!
Last Sunday, I had a sudden burst of energy that had me running around the house like a mad woman cleaning everything in sight. I don't know what got into me, but I had an unstoppable urge to clean. If it's this intense now, I don't even want to know what "nesting" is going to look like, haha. We also finished painting the ...
25 weeks!
Week 25 was great because we got a lot accomplished for the nursery. We ordered our crib, bedding and curtains (I had waited until there was another sale at Restoration Hardware Baby & Child before we made additional purchases). I can't wait to share everything with you all as it all comes in, but I'll save that all for some nursery ...
New Haircut & Hair Products I’m Loving
This past weekend, I had my hair cut and I realized that I haven't posted about my favorite hair products in quite some time. I had more hair cut than usual---I asked my stylist to shorten my layers and overall length because my hair was feeling really dry and heavy. I am really pleased with the results. My hair holds style better now and ...
Valentine
Wishing all of my readers a very happy Valentine's Day! We're keeping it simple and ordering in some pizza. H got me some lovely tulips and we of course exchanged cards. As for today's outfit, every time I wear this Forever 21 blouse, I remember how much I love it. It's a fun pattern and I love the laid-back ...
