Dog Ornaments + A Little Life Update

ART
Hello! Wow I’ve been silent in this little space for a while! Such is life with 4 kids under 6 and my creative efforts shifting. As you can see, I’ve started a new artistic series here with ornaments and it’s been my favorite creative project so far. I feel like I’ve really found my groove with these and they are less intimidating with each new project. Believe it or not, I’m actually capped with orders for the remainder of...

Pretty Fall Things

Collages
Fall is officially here! At least calendar wise. I’ve been fortunate to travel to two different mountain towns in the past few weeks thanks to friends and family weddings. And it’s been really nice packing up sweaters and breaking out my layers. I thought I’d round up some recent things I’ve found and a few I already own and love! These booties are THE BEST. I wore them ALL day and all night last weekend and not only are...

Shrimp Ceviche

RECIPES
Here is a very simple dynamite recipe for you to make as your next appetizer. Shrimp ceviche! I browsed quite a few recipes on the internet and I think I followed this one mostly.

Ingredients: 1 lb cooked jumbo shrimp 1 medium avocado sliced 1/4 cup fresh lime juice 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/4...

3 months with Will

MILESTONES
I can’t believe my buttery baby boy is already almost 4 months old. I just gave away some of our baby things we won’t use anymore and it made me feel so emotional knowing the early baby phase is over for me! But it also feels good to declutter. Will is such an easy baby. Thank goodness. I remember two years ago at this very time with baby Jack who was struggling with bottles, getting his first stomach bug,...

Outfits I wore in Nantucket

OUTFITS
Wow. What a wonderful magical week in Nantucket! I am so glad we escaped the heat for a bit and got to spend some time at the beach with our kids. After Eric and I visited last summer on our own, we were eager to bring our whole family out for some fun. Between some babysitting help out there and camp, we were able to get some alone time cruising around the island. And the kids had a blast...

The Coffee Read No. 6

BLOGGING
Hi friends! It’s been a while since I’ve hopped on the blog with some updates. And a really long while since I shared a coffee read. I figured this was the best way to play catch up on here and share a few things. Life with 4 is busy! Especially in summer. We are finding our rhythm over here and it’s been fun. But time management is still quite an adjustment. I totally over-programmed my kids at the beginning...

6 Weeks with Will

MILESTONES
Our sweet William is turning 7 weeks old this week! While I am already feeling all the emotions about him outgrowing his newborn clothes, I’m very excited about his longer stretches of sleep and more consistent schedule. One of the best parts of having a blog is being able to reference my old schedules with my babies and see what I was doing before. It’s amazing how quickly you forget! Even your 4th time around. I never shared a...

Transitioning to 4 Kids

LESSONS AND TIPS
I’m currently sitting down at my computer while two children are at camp and two are napping. I just had a sitter here so I could run some errands and this is the only time I really have to sit down and type. So I’m maximizing my alone time. Wow, does it feel good to have a quiet house and a second to myself! We have really been in the thick of it lately. I’d be lying if I...

Straw Hats for Summer

Collages
I love a good summer fedora. I wear them frequently, especially by the pool or on vacation. They are great protection from the sun and a cute accessory as well. Here are some favorites I love at various price points! Freya Daffodil Hat || Emerson Fry Caftan Brixton Fedora || Emerson Fry Caftan JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.
