Every fall, we visit Old MacDonald's Farm in Humble to visit the pumpkin patch, feed the animals and go on pony rides. This was Lincoln's first year to go as a walking, talking toddler, so it was extra fun for all of us! We were thrilled to finally (no really, FINALLY) get some cooler weather in Houston last week so I was able to dress the kids in ...
O N E This week was full of ups and downs and I’m so happy it’s finally Friday. In case you missed it, I had two stories I worked on run in the New York Times this week, which was a career highlight for me and incredibly exciting! I love working with our medical teams and patients to help tell these stories. You can read the first article here and ...
I love athleisure wear and I'm always adding new pieces to my collection (hello fave weekend clothes!) I recently purchased this super soft cross-front sweater from Lole and it's such a versatile piece. I love that it's lightweight and can be thrown over anything. The best part is that it can be worn with the cross part at the front or back -- when ...
I got a lot of questions about the lace cami I wore in my Instagram stories a couple of weeks ago so I thought I'd share here on the blog! Fair warning --- this tank is a major splurge. I only purchased it because it was on sale at the time and I had some credit to use. What I love about it is the style of the lace, the fit (mine is a medium) and ...
Last week when I shared my getting-ready-for-work morning beauty routine, so many of you asked about my curls and how I achieve them. I wrote a separate post about it here and also have a video tutorial here. T3 Micro, makers of my holy grail “perfect curls” curling wand is currently having a friends and family sale for 20% off of your purchase. ...
It was a very difficult week for our family. We said goodbye to our sweet Lulu, who was with us for 13 years on this earth. I still remember the day I took him home and all of our adventures in between. He was like a tiny blonde ball of fluff with the sweetest little face you’d ever seen. Lulu suffered from numerous health problems that started ...
It’s no secret that I’m just a little holiday obsessed. In fact, I’m already planning our Christmas card outfits. When I started to search for holiday dresses for Harper at Nordstrom, one of my favorite destinations to shop for the kids and our entire family, I discovered some really precious dresses with beautiful tulle, lace and sparkly details, ...
LOFT always has the best sales and for the last year or so, they've been killing it with the styles they're offering. I shop there more now than I have in awhile -- they always have on-trend items that are really affordable (regularly 40% off!) Right now, all of the items I'm sharing here are an additional 40% off from their listed price (yay!) ...
O N E I don’t know if it was the crisp 64 degree weather on Wednesday morning, but I had a sudden urge to decorate our home for Christmas. However, I will restrain myself until Thanksgiving. I’ve seen so many adorable holiday decorations lately...I love this colorful garland (and this candy cane one), these animal ornaments and these letter ...
It's safe to say that throughout our nearly 10-year friendship, Candice and I have often gone the pampering route when we buy gifts for one another. Whether it's a favorite perfume, spa services or cosmetic splurges, we've always enjoyed treating one another to beauty-related gifts. I know it seems early to be thinking about holiday gifting (after ...
