Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Image
Mother's day is just around the corner, I'm already looking for a relaxing day with my girls & hopefully a face full of strawberry pancakes and mimosas for breakfast! We are usually pretty casual about Mother's day & Father's day around here, we do small, thoughtful gifts, and try to spend the day all together doing what we love most. I do have lots of special moms in my life, my own, my mother in law, and tons of sweet friends who I always want to celebrate on a special day like this. So putting together a little round up of Mother's Day gift ideas, things that are always on my wishlist, or on my radar for gifting. Cake Stand // Floral Phone Case // Best Candle Ever   Mom All Day Tee (15% off with code momallday!) Watercolor Family Portrait // Brightening Face Mask // Druzy Necklace // Personalized Stationery In addition, a few more things I think every mom would also really love on Mother's day: 1. No tantrums, no sweeping, & no running out o

Eloise's 2nd Birthday Puppy Party

Image
This weekend was Eloise's 2nd birthday, and per her request & love of puppies, we had a puppy party!! I have been so excited to plan this party because I just knew she was going to be obsessed with it. And the minute she walked in & saw the big basket of stuffed pups, she yelled "PUP-PUPS!? YAAAY!" The ultimate cutest. I found this most amazing artwork on Pinterest years ago, and have been in LOVE with it ever since. I always hoped I would find a use for it, and once we decided on a puppy theme, I knew I had to go track it down. The print is by the talented Emily Nelson Art , we had it printed as an oversized poster to use as a backdrop & another smaller size to cut out individual puppy faces for the straws. It was definitely the highlight of the party decor for me, I just love stuff like that! I sent the print over to Glam Fete and had a custom garland made, and loved how it made the colors come to life! The "Adopt a Puppy" garland was a

Happy Birthday Eve, Eloise Ruby!

Image
Our little Eloise is turning TWO tomorrow, I can hardly believe it!! Time has gone by so much faster with each baby, and these back to back birthdays are truly a reminder that each of these precious days with our little girls are numbered. Eloise has always been our wild girl, but that also makes all of her emotions extra big, including how she loves. From her very first smile, we always said she gives it all she's got, her whole face lights up. She runs with open arms into every hug, is the first to pucker up for a kiss & tells everyone she loves them "too much!" which just fits her so well. She tries our patience & pushes our buttons, but then turns on the charm & makes us forget all about it. She loves her sissies. She follows Harper's every move & wants to be just like her, but is always looking out for baby Claire & trying to take care of her. She is the little comedian in our house too, she always knows when she is being funny & will do a

Beauty Favorites + Eyelash Extensions

Image
I have been working on an updated beauty favorites post for a while now & wanted to share a few of the things I am currently using & loving. I have used a lot of the same things for years, which you can find in this post , but over the last year or so I have tried lots of new things, and there are a handful that are totally worth sharing. With anything skincare or makeup related, I usually don't try them unless someone else has recommended it, or if I have a chance to try it first in the store before purchasing. I would love to know what your very favorites are! Tula Exfoliating Mask & Hydrating Cream // I recently tried this mask after reading wonderful things about this brand & I absolutely love it. My skin is crazy sensitive so I am always weary of trying new skincare regimens, this is super gentle on my skin but also does wonders for my complexion & how soft my skin feels after using. Glow Time BB Cream // The BB cream that I have used for years was recen

Powder Bath Refresh

Image
I am so excited to share a super fun DIY project today that we have been working on for the last few weeks. A few years ago, we painted our downstairs powder bathroom a shade of dark navy, which I loved, but we eventually grew a bit tired of. So, after we had the entire main floor painted a few weeks ago, we knew we wanted to give the bathroom a facelift as well. Soooo, we did!! We were super excited to discover a fun alternative to just painting the room, and it's not your mama's wallpaper! ;) You know I can't resist a good black & white pattern, so this Chasing Paper peel & stick wallpaper had my name written all over it. Since the space is so small, it's easy to feel like you can go bold, which we certainly did!  We installed a new light fixture a few years ago, which we love, but wanted to still replace the mirror since the one previously in the space was too large. After searching high & low, I came across this perfect brass circle mirror at Target

4moms High Chair Giveaway + Toddler Snack Favorites

Image
Our friends at 4moms sent us their brand new high chair to test out & review, and I have been patiently waiting to share it with you all! You know we have been huge fans of their brand for years, they really think outside the box when it comes to baby products, so I couldn't wait to see how innovative this high chair was going to be. And it did not disappoint!  A few key points on what makes this high chair so great. The tray is magnetic, so not only is it so easy to put on and off (don't worry, it still latches in a way that your kids cannot take it off while they're in it), but the top is magnetic too! 4moms makes compatible bowls & plates that will stick right to the tray to prevent your kiddos from flipping them over. Genius, right?! :) The design is simple & modern, which I love, but it is also so functional. Eloise can climb up the steps on her own to get into it & we can adjust the height depending on which one of the girls is in it at the time. I l

Motherhood // Let's Talk About Sleep, Baby.

Image
As moms, I think we find ourselves in the "are they a good sleeper?" conversation all too often. And if someone would have asked me how to get a baby to sleep back when we had our really good sleeper, I could have gone on all day with ideas & suggestions. But here we are, three kids later, and I still can't get my nine month old to consistently sleep through the night. We've tried every trick in the book (and with that, have read every book), and ultimately what we have learned is that some babies are just not good sleepers. It takes time & patience. And naps & coffee.   I have emailed back and forth with so many of you with your sleep questions & advice, which I so appreciate, but I know I have yet to get back to many of you as well. So I thought I would do a little sleep comparison between all three of our kids, doing this all from memory (and my brain is mush) so hopefully I have this all right! ;) Sleeping through the night Baby #1: 5 weeks Baby #2

Friday Favorites

Image
Happy Friday, friends! It has been a bit of a crazy week so I feel like I haven't had much time to dedicate to the blog, but we have some super fun projects to share next week that I am really excited about. It is Spring in Atlanta, which means 40 degrees and rainy one day, 75 degrees and sunny the next. The girls have been rocking summer dresses already most days, so when we had a super chilly day this week, I sent them upstairs to get warm clothes on & this is what they came up with. Harper loves to dress herself, and her sisters, the tutu + high tops pairing kills me. Eloise is still in pajamas and slippers, but at least she got a vest. This weekend we have a few birthday parties to attend, and lots of planning for a special almost TWO year old's birthday coming up in just a few short weeks. For the girl whose two favorite things are puppies & ketchup, we decided on a puppy themed birthday party with a hot dog bar... and lots of ketchup! ;) It's been a while sinc
