It was so nice to have an extra day off with the Labor Day holiday! I definitely needed those extra 24 hours. As you've noticed, things have been quiet here on the blog. Work has been incredibly busy and I've had several very early morning starts which doesn't leave me with much energy in the evening to blog. I also mentioned this on IG, but we ...

Our Weekend…
We've had one of those weeks in our household. Where everyone is exhausted and on top of that sweet Harper caught a tummy bug that was just brutal. She started to get sick on Friday and so between her illness and my seemingly perpetual exhaustion, our Saturday involved a lot of screen time and book-reading on the couch. Thankfully little miss is ...
Our Weekend…
Happy Sunday! This is totally going to turn into a "things we love" post because our weekend was full of play dates, birthday parties and naps. So, the usual. Harper loves her cat backpack from Baby Gap. It also comes in this sweet gray owl version. She looks like such a big girl in it though…which is both sweet and traumatizing. Why do they have ...
Blogging Q & A
I've been blogging for nearly 6 years now (!!!) and every once in a while I'll get an email from a lovely reader asking me questions ranging from how to start a blog to how to grow it and work with brands, etc. I'm certainly not a blogging expert (I can only speak to my own experience) and there are many blogs wildly more successful than mine, but ...
Our Weekend + Giveaway from Lou Lou & Company
Happy Sunday! This weekend was full of fun- our Saturday started off with Little Gym and then we headed across town to celebrate sweet Caroline's first birthday. As you can see, Harper was a big fan of the cake (and so was I!) Today, we met up with my in-laws for brunch at our favorite crepe spot, Sweet Paris at City Centre. Kevin and I have a ...
Sweet Summer Salad w/ Raspberry Vinaigrette
We are big fruit lovers in this family, especially in the summer time (but really, all year round since it's pretty much guaranteed toddler food). I love ordering fun salads at different restaurants we go to and I always find myself loving the salads with fruit in them the most. I'll usually make a mental note or even jot down ingredients in ...
Our Weekend…
We had the most laid-back weekend and it was great! Just full of family time and the funniest little moments with Harper. She makes us laugh constantly during our little conversations. This is without a doubt the best age. Harper also started to say "why?" and "but why?" to just about everything this week, so that's been fun (sometimes). We're ...
A few changes around here…
If you've checked the blog lately, you're probably seeing that there's a whole new look to Veronika's Blushing. I've been blogging for nearly 6 years (6!!!) and I finally felt it was time to take the plunge and move to Wordpress so I could have more control over the look and functionality of the site. Mainly, I wanted to make it easier to navigate ...
Our Weekend…
Happy Sunday! Harper went to bed a little early tonight because she was way exhausted, so here I am watching Bachelor in Paradise and sharing a few favorites and weekend moments. Let's get to the timely stuff first--- today is the last day to shop Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale before prices go up tomorrow. I didn't go too crazy shopping the sale ...
Our Weekend…
Hey! I hope y'all had a great weekend! It's a bagillion degrees here right now and I will fully admit that getting through the summer with a pregnant belly and 20 extra lbs of weight on your frame isn't as fun as it looks (no, really). My ribs have been hurting again (they did the last time too) and I'm uncomfortable pretty much daily. It ...
