Pacifiers are one of those things as a mom that I (or my mom) just couldn’t live without. I, as well, am a bona fide pacifier user admittedly till the age of five. Yeah I know, that’s really old but there’s nothing wrong with me today. Except for the fact that I love to chew [...]

Since having a little girl, our days are consumed with headbands, bows, frills and SHOES! No complaints here, it’s the highlight of my life really.

It’s not often I get the chance to browse the Facebook pages of the brands we adore and follow, but one I can’t get enough of is SwimZip on Facebook. To see all the celebrity children out there that rock their SwimZip just like our Gigi does…it’s pretty cool! Love seeing a brand that we [...]

Having a daughter means many things. One of my favorites? Fashion. I love dressing up Lavery probably just as much (if not more) than she loves to get all dolled up too. I love to pick out adorable outfits with accessories to the nines and watching her prance around so proud. Among one of her [...]

If you’ve followed us for sometime now, you know that this mama is back in the office 9-5. Daddy has taken over as SAHD. And he’s rockin’ it I must add! Sure the house isn’t as clean as I would like and poor Gigi is dressed in jeans and tees everyday, those are just the [...]

I try to avoid plastic as much as possible.

another boy! Just the thought of another lovey little boy makes me so excited. Both my boys are very cuddly and are definitely mama’s boys and I love it. But the thought of my exponentially increasing grocery bill and the amount of farting that will occur in my house, I could do without. For the [...]
