We’re having a baby! It feels good to announce this finally; the first trimester seems to take forever and then the rest of the pregnancy usually flies. It’s true–this baby is due in February and it will be our last child. Some of you may know that I had a miscarriage about a year ago […]
There’s only two sales I really saw this weekend that caught my eye: J Crew and H&M. Both often have sales but the good stuff can get snagged up so quickly so I thought I would share a few highlights from each retailer (and I ordered some stuff from both!). Edit: I lied. LL Bean […]
It’s a big couple of weeks in our household. Harry starts Kindergarten today (see his school supplies here). And next week, Teddy is starting school!

I may no longer have babies but we have been toying with the idea of adding one more baby to the mix (unfortunately, I had a miscarriage last fall). However, I know a lot of my readers are in that season of life; maybe you’re having babies. Or maybe your friends are having babies. Or […]
They really hit us with the July sales, eh? Well, I still try and patronize in-person stores but I DO love a deal off Amazon (and lots of other online retailers). I wanted to show you what sales I’m purchasing myself today and what I’ve bought in the past that I would 100% recommend (and […]
