Squashing my decor dreams
It’s now my desire to have a yard full of oddly-shaped pumpkins. Trader Joe’s has SO many good ones -check out the enormous squash thing- but alas, the Pilot was not on board with my plan haha. How was your weekend? Ours was good: very relaxing, productive, and time with great friends. We didn’t have…

It’s a zoo + TRX/kettlebell circuit
Hi friends! How’s the day going? Hope you’re enjoying the day. So happy to hear you like the pumpkin pie brownies recipe! Please let me know if you give it a try. The Pilot says our Costco membership is a waste, and I say 27oz jar of almond butter. It certainly comes in handy when…

Family: Weeks 37-39… and into Week 40
and feeling… nervous/ready/excited/let’s do this. Random thoughts/things that I’ve noticed: -The funk that I was in from weeks 37-38.

The final stretch with Motherhood Maternity
This post is sponsored by Motherhood Maternity®. Pregnancy has taught me a lot about myself, and about life in general.
