Friday Faves
Hi friends! Happy Fri-yay ๐ What are you up to this weekend?
Thank you so much for the beautiful birthday wishes. You all know how to make a girlโs day even brighter. <3 It was a relaxing and wonderful day, with a drive up to La Jolla,
a cake that Liv and madre made,
and some gorgeous flowers, courtesy of the Pilot.
Liv asked what I wanted for my birthday, and when I said โa nap,โ she was very upset. โYou canโt sleep on your birthday!โ haha.
Madre left last night (wahhh), but Iโm glad weโll get to see her again soon for turkey day. Nana will be likely coming on Sunday, and we canโt wait to see her! P has been saving up lots of snuggles just for her.
Another photo from her newborn shoot with Jacquelynn:
I canโt even handle it.
This entire time, Iโve thought that while P definitely looks like both of us, she looks a lot like her daddy.
To confirm, I texted my MIL and asked if sheโd mind sending some baby photos of the Pilot.
LOOK.
Pretty remarkable, huh?!
In standard Friday fashion, here are some faves from the week and around the web:
Sephora VIB sale starts TODAY! Here are some of the things Iโll be stocking up on. Iโd like to replenish my Naked palette, face scrub, Argan oil, and lipgloss.
How to raise an emotionally resilient child.
Seasons 52 night! We took the crew out for an awesome dinner at Seasons 52. I had some Jam Jar shiraz (so sweet and good), the salmon,
and Livโs mind was appropriately blown when they brought out the dessert tray.
Family walk to Tiki Port. Even though they have the best acai bowls, Iโve been changing it up with their peanut butter supreme smoothie which has almond milk, cinnamon, honey and chia seeds.
Eat dessert to prevent holiday weight gain. Donโt need to tell me twice haha.
The uniform. Iโve been living in loose or button-up shirts and jeans over the past couple of weeks. I really love these tops I grabbed from the Nordstrom sale, and am thinking about getting a couple of other colors. Theyโre really comfy, look put-together, and wash well (<โ key).
Hope you have a very happy Friday and a great weekend. <3

Whatโs something youโre loving this week?
Latest on the Family page is here.
I am always amazed at the pure beauty of where you live! Enjoy your weekend and family time! P is so precious!
thank you- it never gets old <3
xoxo
Now that’s what I call a perfect birthday! Those pictures of the P’s are incredible! They really do look alike. I also think Liv suddenly looks like she’s 5 or 6. Is that just me?
yes, she looks so grown up all of a sudden :/
oy this weekend is all work and packing. seems like as usual. Luckily i took my GRE yesterday so that weight is off my chest and back and life hahaha. So instead now I can focus on my school applications!!
well that’s awesome! hope it’s a huge sigh of relief for you <3
That photo of Penelope is so incredibly gorgeous! You’ve got some lovely gals on your hands!
thank you so much!
Those newborn pictures are TOO CUTE! She’s a beauty! I hope you got a nap or at least a decent night’s sleep for your b-day!
neither! haha. i told tom that’s all i want
Such a beautiful photo!!
Haha, and baby Pilot ๐ Adorable!
Happy weekend Gina!
Love the comparison pics! There’s no denying who the father is! Haha
She looks so snuggable <3
Happy belated birthday! Hope you have a lovely weekend with your sweet family.
haha! true that ๐
and yes, she is a snuggle bug!
hope you have a great weekend <3
Is it just me that thinks that Liv looks so grown up in that last picture with the Pilot? I swear she’s like a preteen haha! Maybe it’s that smirk and me foreshadowing to your future days ๐ In any case, the girls are adorbs! And baby P is totally the Pilots twin. I am amazed how quickly that can change. My niece would look like my sister one week and the next like my brother-in-law! And then sometimes like her Auntie, which I’ll take any day of the week ๐
i know! it makes me cry haha. when i took the picture, i was like, “cool. livi looks like she’s 12.” what is happening?
that’s true that it can change so quickly. sometimes i think liv looks just like tom and other times, i think she looks exactly like i did
Something I’m loving this week is finishing up a few of the goals I set for myself this year related to my house! It always feels so good to cross things off the list.
She’s a doll! And definitely daddy’s girl!!
Thanks for allowing me to eat dessert during the holidays! So, excited for the Sephora sale! Glad to see that you are out and about so soon after giving birth. Maybe what they say about the second child being easier really is true. Have a great weekend!
yes, it’s so much easier! with liv, we were horrified to go to trader joe’s and packed up the world to take with us. now, we feed P, grab the diaper bag and go. i think it’s helped a lot with my mood, too- i don’t feel trapped in the house
xoxo
Hahaha Liv is so funny with the โno sleepโ birthday remark! Oh, to have the energy of a kid once again! So glad you had a wonderful birthday, Gina. Hear’s to a beautiful year of 31!
right?! she thought it would be terrible to sleep on your bday, and i was like no that sounds amazing haha
xoxo
So glad you had a nice birthday, Gina! I’m putting Tiki Port on my list for stops during my Christmas trip to SD! ๐ Happy Friday!
The newborn pictures are sooo adorable!! It really is crazy how much P looks like the Pilot!! Hope you get a couple of naps this weekend! ๐
It sounds like you’re enjoying time with your sweet little family…your girls are adorable! I hope Livi is doing well with the baby sis–she sounds like such a fun kid ๐

Homemade pasta! (heart eyes)
Daddy daughter combo is the best! Do you mind if I ask you ask size you wear for the top? I’m due in less than 2 wks and want to get something loose but cute. Not sure to get the petite or not and size xs or sm since it says it runs big. Thx!
I played it safe and got smalld but they’re a little too big. When I order new colors I’m going to get xs
OMG all those little baby rolls! Too adorable.
They do look so similar!!
