Friday Faves

Hi friends! Happy Friday! Hope youโ€™re having a lovely morning. I am SO excited for the weekend. The week feels like such a blur, and the weekend is a chance to slow down a bit. Itโ€™s nice to get to sleep in (the Pilot and I take turns), hang out with friends, and enjoy time…

Yeah.” “Whatโ€™s mommyโ€™s job?” โ€œTo work out. And clean up…

Happy 3 months, Penelope! (+ an Owlet giveaway!)

Guess who is 3 months old? Thatโ€™s a quarter of a year! I canโ€™t even. Miss P is still smiling like crazy, babbling and cooing to her heartโ€™s delight, and chewing on her hands like theyโ€™re a delectable treat. Iโ€™m convinced that sheโ€™s teething because she is always gnawing on her hands, but the ped…

1 hour, $60, 5 days of daytime eats

Thatโ€™s breakfast, lunch and a snack each day! PLUS, everything is gluten-free. So last time I did a similar post to this one, I counted a lot of pantry essentials. I later realized that a few items may not commonly be on hand , and for that reason the title was skewed. Fail to meeeeee.…

where the palm trees sway

Hi friends! How was your weekend? I hope you had an amazing one! It was rainy and lovely around here, so Sunday was spent snuggling and relaxing.  Itโ€™s also been super windy, so our yard is officially a palm tree shedding ground. Thereโ€™s something creepy about watching them gently sway at night. Some pics from the…

end of a swaddle era

I think the time has finally come, because we have a Houdini on our hands. To be real, I kind of suck at swaddling. Youโ€™d think that by kid #2, Iโ€™d be almost pro level, but no. I wrap her up like a delicate flower and 4 seconds later, arms are out. Iโ€™ve gotten a…

Invisalign: before and after

This post is sponsored through my partnership with Invisalignยฎ clear aligners. Full disclosure. The time has come: I am on my last set of Invisalign clear aligners!

What I Ate Wednesday

and Iโ€™m actually posting it on a Wednesday! (Iโ€™m usually a day late.) *Runs around high-fiving everyone* Thatโ€™s where the excitement ends because my eats were not super thrilling yesterday. But, I thought it would be interesting to share my eats on an off day from the gym when I havenโ€™t meal-prepped at all. Usually…
