I get particularly excited for Spring fashion because it’s all so bright and colorful. One trend I’m totally on board with this year is cowboy boots – especially white ones. Maybe it’s because I live in Oklahoma or maybe it’s because they all just … Continue reading Spring Hot List
My love for Bath & Body Works goes all the way back to the late 90’s when my girlfriends and I would walk around in clouds of Juniper Breeze, Cucumber Melon and Sun-Ripened Raspberry. Anyone who was anyone in middle school had a travel size body spray in their locker next to a few spare butterfly clips and an *NSYNC poster (or Backstreet Boys, if … Continue reading February Favorites from Bath & Body Works
Rosé is having a major moment right now. When I started thinking of a yummy drink I could make for a recent Bachelor night at our house, I knew it had to involve wine. I wanted to make something pretty for all my girlfriends but I also wanted it to be universally enjoyed. I immediately thought of Sangria, but when I went to gather all … Continue reading Peach and Blood Orange Rosé Sangria
The way you start your morning sets the tone for the entire day – both positively and productively. When I had my marketing job, I felt like our mornings were so chaotic. We’d be rushing to get ready, rushing to make the kids breakfast, rushing to get them ready and then rushing everyone out the door. Now that I’m home with the kids, our mornings … Continue reading 5 Productive Ways to Start Your Day

Looking back on our life together thus far, I would’ve never imagined we’d be where … Continue reading An Early Valentine’s Day Date
We are so excited for the Super Bowl this year and cannot wait to cheer on our Patriots! Brady is especially excited, as you can imagine, and hasn’t wanted to take off his jersey all week. The Super Bowl is a perfect time to throw (or attend) a fun house party where you can let loose and treat yourself to a smorgasbord of healthy and … Continue reading Kid-Friendly Super Bowl Snacks

The holidays are a busy time for everyone, but they may very well be the busiest for mothers. After all, we are the ones who put those coveted Christmas lists together, purchase most if not all of the presents, wrap them, hide the special ones from Santa (then have to remember where we put them on Christmas Eve), schedule Christmas photos, order Christmas cards, mail … Continue reading A Meaningful Christmas with James Avery
It goes without saying that a good teether is a total necessity during your little one’s early years. Having been through teething twice already, I’ve certainly experienced my fair share of teethers and obviously formed opinions on what works the best. Nowadays, teethers come in all shapes and sizes and if you’re a first-time mama, it can be a little intimidating knowing exactly what to look for. … Continue reading Motherhood Essentials: Matchstick Monkey Teether
