I woke up the other night in a state of sheer panic when I felt the most intense Braxton Hicks I had ever experienced in pregnancy. I honestly don't remember having the same sensations with any of my boys, so my first immediate thought when it jolted me awake at 2am, was all the things I still had left on my to-do list before baby girl decides to enter this world. She's already dropped so much ...
OUR HOME // NEW PLAYROOM REVEAL
This post may contain affiliate links. Here we are! A few weeks ago I gave you a little sneak peek on insta of our new playroom space (click through in case you missed it). We recently finished the project up, added some last minute touches and got it shot, so today I’m bringing you the full reveal. When I found out I was pregnant with our fourth, my first initial gut instinct was not a nursery, ...
MY NEW FAVE RAZOR FOR WOMEN
This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Philips. Admittedly, there is one thing I am terrible at and it's investing in a good razor. It's such a basic necessity, but I clearly don't see the point in spending more than a few dollars to shave my legs. In the past, I’ve used the same disposable razor blade to the point where there was no moisture strip and the blades started to rust (embarrassing, I ...
MY GO TO “WINTER RELIEF” FOR THE KIDS
This is sponsored by Mommy's Bliss, but all opinions are my own. With two school-aged kiddos, a toddler at home and a newborn set to arrive this December, I'm a stickler about preventing sickness before it happens in our house. To save my sanity later, I’ve come up with a winter immunity kit for them that I can keep on hand, out of little ones reach, but close and easily accessible for when I ...
MY FAVORITE HOT COCOA RECIPE
This recipe is from the blog Celebrating Sweets that I've adapted to our own creamy chocolate-y goodness that the kids absolutely LOVE! HOMEMADE HOT CHOCOLATE This recipe is made with a combination of cocoa powder and chocolate chips. The cocoa powder adds the distinct “hot cocoa” flavor, and the chocolate chips melt into the mixture making this drink extra creamy, rich and luxurious. A splash ...
FAMILY TRAVELS // “BABY”MOON AT THE FOUR SEASONS
"Baby"moon can be taken lightly, since it's more like "kids" moon when you have 3. Honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way. I probably would have felt that nagging feeling like I had left something at home if we actually snuck away sans-kids. A few weekends ago, we decided to go all in and make a thing of it. If we were bringing the kids, we needed a resort that was not only family-friendly, ...
3 boys + a babe (on the way)
This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Huggies®. So if you haven't caught on by now, we're having another BABY! Although this one wasn't planned, we're over the moon excited to be welcoming our first little GIRL into our side of crazy town. Which means in less than 4 months I'll be back to having two kids under 2 in diapers. Not my first rodeo, obviously, but it's even more important to me, now ...
STYLE SANCTUARY: OUR MASTER BED SUMMER REFRESH
This post was sponsored by Wayfair. I love refreshing the spaces around our house for the seasons. One of my favorite things to do is to shop my own home and move pieces from one room to another to give it a fresh look. I recently gave our Master Bedroom a mini-makeover and thought it would be fun to share with you some of my tips on how I switched up just a few things to turn our bedroom into ...
