Valentine’s Day Gifts for Guys
This year for Valentine’s Day, I’ve come up with a long list of gifts that I could get my husband. Of course, I always wait until the last minute, which means some of them are more plausible than others. But I’m determined to really get him something good this year.

My Favorite White Dresses for Summer
In summer, I basically wear white dresses on repeat. Don’t get me wrong, I love florals and stripes and colors, and have found them more forgiving of stains since becoming a mom for sure, but I always end up buying…
Chic One Piece Bathing Suits (That Don’t Scream “Mom Suit”)
I may be a little late on this post being that everyone is already full-on summer mode, but we’re just enjoying our first pool days and I’m getting lots of requests for one piece bathing suits that aren’t dowdy or…
Matching Easter Pajamas for Kids
I didn’t always know whether I would be the matching pajamas type of mom, but alas, here we are. Because there is nothing cuter than kids in matching holiday pajamas — really, matching any pajamas. I first caved when I…
Kitchen Island Lighting Ideas
We are working on our first big project for the new house — our eat-in kitchen. I am so thrilled to have a large open kitchen where we can eat, cook, craft, and hang out. The kitchen opens to the family…
