Motherhood Update || Toddler Transitions
I've never done a motherhood update and thought it would be fun to change gears and talk more about my experiences being a mom. Quinn turned 2 in August and I feel like she has really transitioned into being a full blown toddler! She's always had a strong personality, which I think will serve her well in the future, but it makes my job a bit challenging at the moment. I should have known she … [Read more...]
What’s In My Hospital Bag+Things I Wish I Knew Postpartum
I'm probably jinxing myself by packing my hospital bag this early and Parker will come a week LATE but I'm type A and can't help it. With Jackson, my hospital bag was more like a hospital suitcase.. I brought all. the. things. Let me tell you how many things I used from that suitcase.. five (maybe). So let's just say I've learned my lesson to go MINIMAL and bring the essentials. Honestly, the … [Read more...]
Happy Hour
Heather- Tell me more about how you make nitro cold brew at home? I'm so jealous! Oh man ok where to start.. so my husband has a beer keg in our garage refrigerator where he can have two beers on tap at the same time. He decided that it would be awesome to have one side of the keg be nitro cold brew coffee since that's what we both drink every morning. He basically just had to buy the parts to … [Read more...]

What I Ate Wednesday (WIAW)
If you're new to my WIAW posts please STOP and read this post first. It's important to understand my intentions for sharing these types of posts. I haven't done a WIAW post in a while, so I figured I'd take pictures of my eats for the day and share it with you guys. I'll be the first to admit my plating and food pic skills are below average (Heather is totally cringing lol) Honestly, if my … [Read more...]

Happy Hour
Any good postnatal vitamins or nutrition to help with hair loss? I'm shedding like a cheap rug! Ugh it's the worst! Continue taking the prenatal vitamins you took while pregnant- you still need all those nutrients esp. if nursing. Adding in a biotin supplement may be helpful. Daily collagen like Vital Proteins may also help the situation. I've heard good things about these vitamins, but … [Read more...]
What is Intuitive Eating? (+ my experience with “mindful overeating”)
“Mindful eating replaces self-criticism with self-nurturing. It replaces shame with respect for your own inner wisdom.” – Jan Chozen Bays This weekend I had an experience I like to call "mindful overeating". Sounds kind of silly, but it's a thing ;) Let me explain. My husband and I had date night last Saturday (which we need to do more of) and Heather recommended an awesome little spot called … [Read more...]
32 Week Bumpdate
sunglasses | dress | pendant | necklace | cardigan | slides How Far Along: 32 weeks and I only have 2 more of these posts before he's here.. maybe only 1 if there's a God.
