10 Superfoods I’m Never Without

Seems like there’s always a new “it” superfood popping up in the news, from bee pollen to spirulina to chia seeds. But what’s the element that makes a so-called superfood… truly super? Since there’s truth to the saying that “you are what you eat,” my definition is a fresh, whole food that’s naturally bursting with vitamins and minerals, […]

Phoebe and Henry’s New Playroom!

I’ve loved getting to post the design process behind our upstairs remodel (check out Phoebe’s “Big Girl” room here, and baby H’s nursery here), and today I’m super excited to share our new playroom that’s destined to become the most popular spot in the house as our kids grow. Ever since Phoebe was born, our living room […]

Weekend Notes

The royal baby watch may be over, but it’s still going full force around here! Now that I’m in that window where it could actually happen any time, I find myself savoring all the things that will be few and far between with a new baby: sleep-filled nights, leisurely Saturdays in the pool, long restaurant brunches […]

Weekend Notes

Morning, friends! Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend so far. I’ve been battling a nasty cold all week (sick and 9 months pregnant… so not cool), but finally managed to shake it off enough yesterday to embrace our Saturday morning rituals: walk around the city, farmers’ market stop, pastries and omelettes on the patio of […]

Loomed

We’ve all seen the Turkish towels that seem to be on the shelves of nearly every major retailer. And if I’m being honest, until recently I didn’t see what the fuss was about… sure, they look pretty, but how can you call something a towel when it’s paper thin and hardly absorbent? Well, since getting my hands on […]

A Healthy Girl’s Food Diary

In the first three months of this journey, the weight vanished rather quickly. I say quickly because most cannot fathom a 50 lb weight loss in 3 months. For some of you, that’s more than a third of your body weight. For me, it was only a drop in the bucket. No surprise here — […]

Weekend Notes

Happy weekend, darlings! This one’s all about celebrating baby’s arrival around here, first with a couples’ shower that some close friends hosted for us last night, and today, with a casual family barbecue. There’s something about unwrapping all those onesies in shades of grey and blue that makes it that much more real we’ll be […]

Weekend Notes

Happy Easter, friends! Hope you’re all having a lovely day filled with sweet things and sunshine. We’re spending the day with our families, and since Phoebe’s still the only grandchild on both sides (for 6 more weeks!), it’ll be all about her solo egg hunts. Which she doesn’t mind a bit, since it means she […]

Our New Design Project!

I could not be more excited to share a new house project we’ve been working on for the last few months — and we’re kicking it off today! I’ve been working with the amazing team at RH Baby & Child on some major updates to our upstairs space, and I’ll be chronicling the process over the […]

Wes Anderson’s Graphic Designer

Undeniably, no filmmaker has been more influential over an entire generation of bloggers, ad geeks, and instagrammers than Wes Anderson. From our overhead shots of supplies to our love of Futura, his influence runs deep. And just when we think we’ve got him pegged for tracked out sans serif, he’ll drop a caution yellow script […]

My Maternity Staples

As any of you who have been there can attest, dressing a growing bump can be a challenge. I thought I’d have it mastered by the second time around, but since I “popped” a lot faster with bébé #2, I’ve had to be more mindful of dressing my ever-changing bod practically since my first trimester. Every mom-to-be […]
