Have you noticed I haven't been blogging much? That's because I can't. I'm so exhausted most nights that it's a struggle to even stay awake. The past month shall forever be remembered as the month of little sleep. Our poor little guy has been inconsistently napping and sleeping both day and night. We will get one good night and think we're at ...

This Week…
Happy Sunday! O N E There's just something about a haircut that makes your entire world feel refreshed, even if it's a small trim. I have a color appointment booked next week that I was going to cancel, but when I asked my hairdresser what she thought would make my color better, she showed me one of my favorite pictures of Kate Beckinsale's ...
Gentle Cleansing with Cetaphil
The first time I was introduced to Cetaphil® products, I was in high school, struggling with cystic acne. I had been using harsh cleansers on my skin, thinking they would improve my acne, but they just made my skin dry and exacerbated the problem.After months of crazy breakouts, I decided to take a different approach and picked up a bottle of ...
Make Up For Ever HD Invisible Cover Foundation Review
If you've been reading my blog from the start, you know that I've never changed my foundation--- ever. I've been using the same MAC Studio Fix powder foundation since late highschool. Old habits die hard, y'all. So in the interest of full disclosure here, Make Up For Ever sent me a package of products during my maternity leave. I get packages like ...
Peace of Mind for New Parents with Owlet
If ever there was a product I wish I would have had when Harper was born, it's this one. As first time parents, we did everything in our power to ensure a safe sleep environment (baby to sleep on back, nothing else in the crib, no blankets, no bumpers, etc) but there was that lingering fear that left me waking up to "check her breathing" in the ...
Weekend Wrap-Up
If I could use one word to describe the past week, it's "tired." I caught a sinus infection (it's going around at work) and Kevin was out of town the entire week for a conference (thankfully my mother-in-law stayed with us to help out) and I was just barely making it through each day. We are going through a bit of the four month sleep regression ...
Milk Protein Allergy in Babies: Dairy-Free Diet for Breastfeeding
Our sweet Lincoln was two weeks old when he was diagnosed with a milk protein allergy. I was surprised at the time, but looking back, I knew something was "off" just by how his skin looked. I was scrolling through my phone deleting old photos over the weekend and I came upon the ones I took of his skin in those early days and it just broke my ...
Current Favorite Lipcolors
NARS lipstick in "cruising" | Urban Decay naked ultra nourishing lipgloss in "beso" | Buxom Full-On lip polish in "Sophia" | REVLON Colorburst Matte Balm in “elusive” As I get older (I guess it's time to face reality) I'm noticing that I enjoy wearing lip color way more than I used to. In the past, there were many days I only put some gloss ...
LOFT Recent Try-Ons
I've been picking up some new clothes for work lately, so I thought I'd try on some recent LOFT finds I purchased to review them for y'all! You may have seen a preview of these on Snapchat a couple of weeks ago but I also took these photos so you could better see each piece. Some of these tops would be great layered under blazers or sweaters or on ...
