I "CARE" + IPAD MINI GIVEAWAY

By 27 Comments

Boo(Nordstrom), Toms(Nordstrom)

I love working out. However as a new mommy it was difficult to drop Hudson off at daycare and leave him while he was crying. It would break my heart and I’d feel so guilty and selfish. I tried everything!  Then one day it dawned on me, if I was open with him and explained that “I will be back”, vs. sneaking out, then he would understand that I wasn’t abandoning him. I now make sure he always has his “BOO”(his lovey) and reward him with praise, healthy treats and high-fives. Hudson now has fun in daycare and is comfortable knowing that he can be without me, and that mommy will always come back!

  IPAD MINI GIVEAWAY!

 necklace: similar, shirt: similar, skirt: similar, shoes: Sam Edelman also found here, lips; YSL

Today I am sporting two trends, a high low skirt and tying in some color blocking. These are not maternity clothes, but I am using them as such. I love wearing two things when pregnant, dresses/skirts or sweats, I dont really sport a happy medium. Whatever it takes to make me comfortable and presentable while gaining lbs.

Friday Library Day

By 3 Comments

On Friday mornings we attend the free children’s classes at our local Library. Hudson loves the Library! We go to a Mommy and Me class, Spanish class, and Toddler Time class. Each class is about a half hour long and are back to back. After class Hudson usually picks out a couple of books and movies that he wants to read/watch for that week. By the end of our Friday morning Library adventure Hudson is exhausted from all the learning and fun.

WHERE’S THE “H”?

 GO HOME AND NAP TIME!
If there is one thing I want most for Hudson, it’s for him to develop a love of learning and go far in his educational pursuits. The more upfront work I put in now when he is young, the less I will have to do when he is older. I am blessed because Hudson truly does love to learn. I find great joy watching his mental and physical skills develop.

Boys Camp Out

Fort: Restoration Hardware Baby&Child, Panda Bear: Neiman Marcus(sold out) found here, Canvas Bean Bag: Restoration Hardware Baby&Child, Faux Fur Been Bag: Restoration Hardware, Faux Fur Sleeping Bag: Restoration Hardware Baby&Child, Rocking Horse: Costco(sold out), Faux Fur Teddy Bear: Restoration Hardware(sold out)

Hudson had so much fun when Beckham came over for an indoor camp out! Beckham’s mother Megan from Sweet Little Peanut is one of my favorite bloggers. These boys really enjoyed just being boys. It was so cute to see their imaginations as they played and pretended to be on a real camp out. Santa brought Hudson these toys for Christmas and he has really enjoyed them. It was especially fun to have a “camp buddy” to play with and roast s’mores by the fire! Hudson looks forward to playing with Beckham again and many more camp outs, both real and imagined.

1 Dress, 5 Ways + Giveaway

By 6 Comments

Dress: Felicity & Cocoa(similar here), Shoes: Classiques Entier(similar here), Necklace: Tiffany’s , Lips: YSL
Look 1: Crop top (similar here)
Look 2: Gingham Top JCrew Factory
Look 3: Cream Cardigan (similar here)
Look 4: Peach Blazer (similar here)
Look 5: Denim Jacket (on sale!)

I like to make my wardrobe “stretch”, especially when it comes to my maternity wardrobe! This Felicity & Coco dress isn’t even a maternity dress. I have found that so many cute clothes can double as regular and maternity wear.  I have taken the same dress, shoes, and necklace and have created 5 different looks just by changing my top. Most of these items were staples of my wardrobe before I was even pregnant. You can check out my feature on My Chic Bump! I had so much fun collaborating with her, she really is a maternity fashion guru!

Barefoot & Pregnant + Giveaway!

By 11 Comments

Dress: Felicity & Coco (similar here),  Top: JCrew Factory, Necklace: Tiffany and Co., Lips: YSL

I never thought I would be so happy to be pregant as I am today! After a long weekend in and out of the hospital, and being put on bed rest I am thankful my 31 week baby was not born. That being said, I am so happy that it is finally April! Being pregnant in Springtime allows me to wear fun dresses while being barefoot. I love being able to take off my shoes and jump on my trampoline with Hudson, walk on the grass, and best of all putting my feet in the sand. (We live on a golf course and have lots of ponds around us where we like to feed ducks, and canoe).
