Hello and happy Friday! This week’s Friday Five is about all things motherhood and family. I’ve been working on some motherhood content to share with you – but they’re the types of posts that take a long time to write, that I read 30 times over, and feel my heart race as I hit publish. Even though I’m always nervous to publish such personal ...

Happy Friday! Here we go... O N E I’ve mentioned countless times that my eyes are really sensitive to light. I wear sunglasses to drive and always when outdoors, I wear blue-light blocking glasses almost all day and night to prevent digital eye strain (here are my frames) and overall, my eyes are just super sensitive to all forms of light. I ...
Friday Five [ Beauty Week Edition ]
Since it’s beauty week on the blog, it’s only fitting that the Friday Five be beauty-focused. So, here are five random beauty buys that I’m loving. O N E I found this makeup brush shampoo recently and my goodness, the reviews are true – this really gets everything out of your brushes and the bottle is a great size for the price. I noticed that it ...
Friday Five
Happy Friday -- hope you enjoy today's five! O N E I’ve had some IKEA frames purchased for months with the intention of creating a gallery wall in our upstairs hallway. It will be all family photos, so it feels like a great fit to have it in the hall where all of our bedrooms are. The idea of hanging a gallery wall can be super intimidating with ...
Friday Five #BBG Edition
Hello friends & Happy Friday! I started BBG this week -- if you don't know what that is, it's a workout program created by Kayla Itsines. BBG stands for Bikini Body Guide -- Kayla has said publicly that she actually regrets naming it this, but that's what it stands for. I owned the BBG guide for a long time and even printed it out and had it ...

O N E I shared a karaoke machine our kids love on Instagram stories this week and so ...
Friday Five
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 ...
Friday Five
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 ...
Friday Five
door mat (c/o shop josie b) O N E Confession time: I took over a month off at the gym and…everything was fine! Right before we went to Disney, I paused my gym membership since I would be missing at least half of the month (originally Kevin was traveling to Orlando sooner, but we postponed due to Irma). When we got back, I reinstated my ...
Friday Five
O N E The week after a vacation is always all over the place. Between unpacking, doing endless loads of laundry, getting everyone back to their normal schedules and a busy work week, it’s been a long week for our family. To top it all off, I was/am having major issues with my blog/hosting platform and it has been kind of a nightmare (an expensive ...
