Do you feel like the Bala ankle weights add a lot more to your workout? The ankle weights add a sneaky good burn when we take Melissa Wood Health yoga/pilates classes. I've done the classes with and without the 1lb weights and can say it adds a significant burn and enhances the workout. I tried using me 3lb barre weights in the beginning, but those get too heavy for her workouts. Here is … [Read more...]
10 Fall Recipes I Can’t Wait to Try
Have you had your first pumpkin spice latte yet? Not my jam, but last weekend I treated myself to my first festive fall drink at Starbucks. I ordered a grande almond milk iced chai tea latte (2 pumps chai + 1 pump pumpkin) and it was so tasty! It's still pretty hot in Seattle right now (not complaining!), so I haven't made the full transition into fall just yet. However, I did pick up a few … [Read more...]
My Most Worn Jewelry
I wear a combination of necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings each day and for the most part a number of them don't come off even when I sleep or shower. These are quality pieces that can be layered or worn alone and think each is timeless and classic that will never go out of season or style. As you can tell, I'm a gold kind of girl but a number of these also come in silver or rose gold if … [Read more...]

I've always been conscious of potential toxins in beauty and cleaning products and have tried "clean" products here and there, but have never really committed to it. A few months ago I wrote a blog post about how I'm working to "fix" my hormones. I explained that after working with a functional medicine doctor I was more motivated than ever to clean up the products I use and expose my family to. … [Read more...]

I think we can all agree that alcohol consumption has increased for most of us since the pandemic hit in March. When the shut down first happened there were so many funny memes about there being no rules about drinking as if you were in the airport or Vegas. Well, we are going on 6 months of COVID living and things are stressful right now. It feels like we "deserve" a drink by 4pm. However, … [Read more...]
Back to School with Cam & Jack
School will look a little different this year for most of us but like Alix said in her back to school post for Quinn, we can still get our kids excited for a new school year whether that be in the classroom or at home.
