Sidenote, as this was a scheduled post: If you follow me on IG, you know Harper has come down with the flu. So we are all on Tamiflu now (us as a preventative measure since the flu shot is only about 1/4 effective this year) and hoping our little one gets better soon. Harper has never been this sick before and it was scary to see numbers on the ...

DIY Valentines & Valentine Exchange
Happy (almost) Valentine's Day! Harper got lots of lovely Valentines in the mail this week via a fun little exchange we participated in with these lovely ladies and their kiddos! | Amy | Ashley | Ashley B. | Chrissy | Colleen | | Courtney | Emma | ...
Our Weekend…
Though this little one has teeth coming in like whoa right now, she was the absolute sweetest this weekend. We've been dealing with a lot of tantrums lately so it was nice to feel a little break from that. We like to pack our weekends with time outdoors, play dates with friends, eating out once or twice and other outings (kind of a weekend ...
Our Weekend…
How good was the half-time show with Katy Perry and Missy Elliot? Like about a hundred million others on the planet, we're watching the Super Bowl (and by watching, I really mean Kevin's watching and I'm watching the half-time show and the sad commercials). Is it just me, or are the commercials super tear-inducing this year? I wasn't prepared ...
Friday Fun
I've been working some extended evenings and weekend hours lately, so I was able to take a comp day today to get a little break and spend some time with family. Kevin took a little time off in the morning too which was nice! We decided to go to the Houston Aquarium since Harper loved the Toronto one and the massive ones at Atlantis. I had ...
Love List
I'm trying to be more consistent with these posts. I love a good round-up of favorite products, clothing, accessories and other random items and projects I happen to be enamoured with at the moment. The first is this dress that just came in from Gap. I tried it on as soon as I opened the package this evening and I was SO thrilled with the fit ...
Our Weekend…
Our Saturday started with an early AM play date with sweet little Cami, Amanda and Ben. The girls had a tea party, colored, ate way too many snacks and took turns drumming. We enjoyed donut holes, kolaches and so.much.coffee. Cami was wearing the most gorgeous headband made by her super-crafty mama (her blog has lots of great DIYs!) ...
Recent Purchases…
Hello and happy Monday! Today I'm sharing a round-up of recent purchases. I mentioned in my weekend post that we went to Anthropologie and we picked up another long-legged bird to add to our collection. Meet Olivia the Ostrich. She's fluffy, long-necked and super cute. Harper's obsession with puppies has reached epic levels and so of course ...
Our Weekend…
It was finally (after two weeks of cold, rainy and gloomy weather) warm and sunny this weekend and we took advantage of that and spent a ton of time outdoors. One major bonus of living in Houston is our mild winters. Enjoying time outdoors sans snowsuit in January is pretty awesome. Outside time + toddlers = happiness and nice long naps. There's ...
IKEA’s RITVA Curtains in Our Open-Concept Living Room
The story of these curtains is way longer than it should be. Go to store, buy curtains, install. I wish. It all started when I saw my friend Leslie's home for the first time. She has the most gorgeous home (she should seriously become an interior designer) and I saw her curtains and I told her how much I loved them. To my surprise, she told me ...
