Some people love sleep. My toddler is not one of those people. She would rather stay up, play, and learn – her brain is truly incredible. “Can we play? Is it raining? Is it nighttime? Do you got a robe on? Is your hair dry? Can we go downstairs just …

I love our little house, but one of the things it’s missing? A real coat closet. The previous owners installed this IKEA system in our entry and it’s served us well the last three years. Long coats and bags go on hooks at the top of the basement stairs, but …

Time for a July Q&A. Sharing requested links and answering your questions about relationships, clean beauty, life, and and motherhood. July Q&A: Relationships, Clean Beauty, Life, and Motherhood How are you doing? Thank you to everyone who asked a version of this question. Every month seems to feel better at …

If you follow me on instagram, you know that my home has been a work in progress the last few years. I was very pregnant when we moved and life, work, and babies took over. As much as I thrive when things are organized (I’ve always been that way) I …

Another month has come and gone. I’ve done more cleaning and organizing, and as a result, purchased a few organizing essentials. After a year of not organizing anything, it feels so good to get rid of what we don’t need and to find a place for everything. I’ve become a …

My daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia less than two months before her second birthday. We spent half the first month inpatient and over the next eight months spent a lot of time at clinic. During those first few weeks, we were in survival mode and had no idea what we …

I know, I know. Someone else talking about Amazon Prime Day. I’m not usually a fan of sale posts (skipped the Nordstrom sale altogether) because it’s always the same stuff over and over. But since I’m always getting questions about my favorite toys and must-have products, I decided put together …

Margot turns three in July, so over the last few weeks, I started looking at some gift ideas. She loves playing pretend – play food is probably her favorite thing right now. The thing I was most excited about is something I’ve wanted to buy her since she was born, …

After a successful transition into a toddler bed and with Margot’s third birthday around the corner, the time felt right to make the transition to a big girl bed. I won’t be making too many changes, but we’ll say farewell to her crib, daybed, and glider, making some space for …

Curbside pickups for salads, donuts, and Margot’s favorite chicken from Beatrix, a picnic in Lincoln Park, and lots of time together. As luck would have it, a rock cracked the windshield of my new car, but whatever – it’s just a car. Something that would have stressed me out a …

Ten months into being a mom of two, I finally felt like I could properly reflect on what it was like going from one to two kids. I wish I had written something sooner because those newborn days are such a blur, but they go by so quickly and I …

The most popular (or most asked about) purchases of the month were my Peloton “desk” and our backseat organizer. April was a little shopping-heavy since I needed some warm-weather essentials for the girls, snagged some of my most-used beauty items at the Sephora sale, and I prepped for Margot’s upcoming …

Happy Monday, friends! It’s a rainy day and I’m sitting in bed with Margot and my laptop. Last week was a big “mom week” – both girls love our nanny but have had a lot of big feelings since there’s been a transition. I barely got any work done minus …

I feel a little hesitant to say this but things have been feeling really good. The girls are doing well, we’re spending more time outside, the house is a lot more organized, and we’ve even found what feels like a little bit of normalcy for the first time in over …

I’ve been at this mom of two thing for 9.5 months. And I’ve collectively parented babies under a year for 21 months, so I’ve learned a thing or two. And the baby stuff will get ya. It’s so overwhelming. What do I need for a newborn? What does my newborn …

Spring weather is finally here (ish) so I bought a few things for the season. I loved these espadrilles so much that I purchased them in a second color. I also bought a new toner (exfoliator) and sunscreen (both clean), and a few things for the girls. They’ve been loving …

I’ve touched on having some issues with anxiety but haven’t really talked about it. So let’s dive in. Sharing the real stuff is never easy but it’s always cathartic. And it’s these posts that really connect us, isn’t it? The details of my home, what I’m wearing, and the toys …

The last few years of motherhood, I’ve turned to Etsy for some great finds for my girls. From toys to clothes and everything in between, Etsy has become a go-to resource for unique finds for kids. I’m rounding up what I think are the best Etsy shops for babies and …

This was supposed to be Kate’s 6 month update that I started when she had just turned 7 months. She’ll be 8 months this weekend, so here’s a recap of 8 months with Kate. It’s my first Kate update (sorry, my sweet, second baby) but life is just nonstop with …

Kate's helmet, starting maintenance, oral surgery, our pantry, and a few favorite things.

It’s only February, but one of my favorite Easter baskets and the pajamas I bought the girls already sold out. Before everything else disappears, I wanted to round up some of the cutest Easter gifts I’ve found for babies and toddlers. The girls both have the basket with scalloped liner,  …
