Happy (Half)Birthday to Phoebe!

Last week we celebrated Phoebe’s half birthday… I can’t believe our darling girl is 6 months old! The other day I read a quote that said “The days are long, but the years are short,” and boy is that true with a baby. Some days (especially if she’s having a fussy afternoon) the hours seem… read more


Featured Shop :: Cox & Cox

Even before I became a mom last year, I’ve always been drawn to kids’ crafts, games & clothing that capture the whimsy and magic of childhood – those items that take you back to what it really felt like to be a kid. I stumbled upon UK-based Cox & Cox a few weeks ago and… read more


All I Want for Christmas…

Christmas Eve has always been my favorite day of the year. The magic of old traditions, gathering with family for great food (and way too many sweets) and the anticipation of Christmas morning building hour by hour…I’ve loved it all since I was a little girl, and having our baby girl this year makes it… read more


Announcements, Announcements

This weekend I’m knee-deep in envelopes, stamps and my favorite le pens as I work on getting Phoebe’s birth announcements sent out to family and friends.

Since becoming a… read more


Happy {1 Month} Phoebe!

How in the world is our baby girl already a month old? In 30 days, I’ve already become the stereotypical mom who bemoans how fast time flies and gets teary thinking about her daughter being “all grown up.” Motherhood has been a dream, and despite the sleepless nights and a few crying-filled days, I can’t… read more


In My Diaper Bag :: Natalie Schwartz

Any mama who has the foresight to pack a pair of oversized children’s sunnies in her diaper bag gets a gold star in my book. And since Natalie Schwartz is the founder of Chic Child, I expected nothing less! From “anything wipe-able” to “anything plant-based”, Natalie’s got all the right ideas of must-have baby products.… read more


Weekend Notes

Happy September, you guys! Though I’m technically still taking a post-baby break from blogging, I couldn’t resist popping in to share a new photo of sweet Phoebe… I can’t believe she turns 3 weeks old tomorrow! I’m already seeing how these precious newborn days quickly become weeks, then months, and before I know it, she’ll… read more
