8 Refreshing Summer Smoothies

RECIPES
We recently got a Vitamix and I have been making smoothies every day! For some who absolutely loved this kitchen gadget growing up, I’m surprised it’s taken me so long to get one myself! I always gravitate toward smoothies with peanut butter in them. It’s just a personal favorite. And what I’ve been making daily berry peanut butter with banana! It’s soooo good.

Authentic Pilates of Austin

HEALTHY LIVING
My initial thoughts of pilates before ever trying a class were Jen Aniston + abs. So clearly good things. I really didn’t know much else about the practice other than people who do it love it (and tend to be really fit). If you’ve been following me for a while, then you know how much I value fitness and mind/body connection.

Tuesday Five

TUESDAY FIVE
Greetings from the coziest room in our house! I hope you had a great weekend. We were here with minimal plans and it felt good. We did some home store browsing and finally got back out to the pool with C (it’s been so long!). We picked up this super soft throw (seriously, when I got my hands on it, I couldn’t stop petting it) and I’ve spent as much time curled up in it as possible.

Shrimp Ceviche

RECIPES
Is there a recipe you’ve recently learned that you can’t stop making? For me, it’s this ceviche. I thought I’d need a side to serve it with (for most people, that’s chips), but I’ve found this recipe to be enough by itself! It’s packed with protein and vitamins and Whole 30/Paleo approved!

5 Ways to Hit Refresh

HEALTHY LIVING•PERSONAL
Do you have those times in your life when you just need to hit the reset button, regroup, and refresh? I’m raising my hand high in the air over here. It happens frequently. Whether it’s a lengthy to-do list, an unfinished project, or just feeling like I can’t get ahead, I have to take a moment to myself and just breathe. I know I’m not alone in my bouts of anxiety. In this fast paced social media crazed world...

Tuesday Five

TUESDAY FIVE
Happy Tuesday friends! We’re back in sunny Austin after a week vacation in Chicago. It was therapeutic to get a break from the heat and walk along Lake Michigan. Now that we’re home, Charlie’s been catching up on sleep and I’ve been focusing on getting our schedule and life back in order. Today is Harry Potter’s birthday (is this significant for any of you?) and I’ll always remember this time of year as a kid where I’d open up...

6 Classic Diaper Bags

BABY
 My most used baby item is my diaper bag. It’s my new purse that I carry with me every day (even when I’m without C!). I store all my necessary baby items: diapers, diaper cream, wipes, bibs, toys, etc, and even my own personal items: sunglasses, wallet, phone, keys, chapstick. It’s my little world in one bag.

How My Life Looks Different as a Mom

Motherhood
The other night, I started browsing through my 176 iphone videos, 99% of them being videos of Charlie. It’s funny how we find everything they do extraordinary. I had tears in my eyes as I watched him swing in his swing for the first time, a little boy who looks completely different and IS different now.

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all had a fun weekend! We spent Sunday on a boat with friends and it was SO MUCH FUN. It’s been a long time since I’ve been out on Lake Austin and getting a little Vitamin D while blasting music and getting a break from the heat was just what I needed. What did you guys do?
