Happy Hour

I was wondering if you could help this 7-month postpartum mama pack for Hawaii. I'm still getting my bod to where I want it to be, so any flattering bathing suit and dress recommendations would be so helpful…and I know..so unfair to think about when its rainy, cold or snowing! Thanks so much! Seriously.. SO jealous! Alix is heading to Hawaii in a couple weeks, too! But Heather here to answer … [Read more...]

I Had My First Chemical Peel: Here’s What Happened!

I had a facial scheduled last Wednesday, but I was not planning on getting a chemical peel. However, my aesthetician recommended it because we are working on controlling my breakouts and acne scars, so YOLO! She warned me there would be some down time (AKA your face peeling off and feeling mortified being seen out in public!) but the timing was perfect. We were already planning on potty … [Read more...]

Happy Hour

We are heading to the courthouse this month to officially and FINALLY adopt our five year old foster kiddo! It’s been a long, hard road and we are ready to make him ours.

Nutrition Q&A

I had a flight delay a few weeks ago and threw out the offer for our followers to ask me their burning questions about nutrition, food, and fitness. I wanted to answer these questions on the blog so it was an easy place for everyone to have access to read the Q&A. If you have more questions please let me know and I can get to them in a Happy Hour post or another Nutrition Q&A type post … [Read more...]

Happy Hour

Heather- tell us what you delicious red wines you drink! Favorite budget bottle? Favorite splurge? My husband typically does the shopping for our wines but there are a few that we go back to time and time again. My favorite right now is by Mark Ryan called The Chief, which is about $22 a bottle. My girlfriends and I are obsessed and order it all the time when we are out. Justin Cab Sauv is … [Read more...]

My Daily Harvest Review

I get asked questions about Daily Harvest all the time, so I figured it would be nice to have it all written up in one place for your viewing pleasure. Let me start off by saying this is not sponsored (I wish!) I just think DH is a great nutritious option for a meal or snack. A common nutrition concern for a lot of people is wanting quick, but healthy food options. Life is busy and hectic and … [Read more...]

Life Lately

Jackson and Cameron have been sick, Parker is refusing to take a bottle and my postpartum anxiety hit its peak the … [Read more...]

So here's what we hoarded over the past 31 days: Heather American Eagle Band Tee tee | cardigan | … [Read more...]
