Eleanor is getting more and more curious about the world around her.  It is so fun to watch!


Our little Valentine needed a little  spoiling this holiday!  We gave her this book, these leggings, this giraffe, and a lovely tee from Jean and June!


I hope hope hope her eyes stay this blue.  Alas, genetics will probably turn them green/brown.  Also:  this was her third Valentine’s day outfit due to a series of lovely blowouts.


You guys.  I printed pictures.  Like, actually, physically printed them.  500 of them.  My mom was the best about taking and printing pictures when we were kids and it is so so fun looking through all of them.  I resolve to be better!


Reading to E is just about my favorite thing to do.  Books with lots of colors and almost no words are her favorite.  We love this book!


Today was E’s two month appointment.  I was absolutely dreading it.  Not only does it mean she is getting big, but it was the SHOTS appointment.  I brought all of her favorite things and I skipped the mascara!


Turns out the appointment was harder for me.  She let out a little cry, but they are fast and before we knew it, it was over.  Now let the extra cuddles commence!

Next week she officially turns two months!  Back to the dreaded yellow chair we go!  She will definitely thank me one day.  I am sure of it.

Have a great weekend, friends!

Happy Friday, friends!! I have a quick moment this afternoon because the little one went down for a nap IN HER CRIB!  Baby girl sleeps pretty great at night, but LOVES to be awake/held/in her rocker during the day which means I am sleeping, but productivity during the day is nil.  So let’s get to it: here’s what I am loving this week!

  1. Eleanor’s nursery gotta a little girly update from her Aunt Nennie, who gave her this Oh Joy print from Target.  The whole collection is amazing and it isn’t in any of our Targets!  Auntie to the rescue!
  2. This hat is in the girls’ department, but maybe it will fit me?  I LOVE the color!
  3. Why oh why is this doll sold out?!  I hope it comes back in stock in time for E’s Easter basket!
  4. I have been wanting this vase forever, it’s about time it made it into one of these little roundups!
  5. I treated myself to this bangle and the mom bangle  while out shopping solo the other weekend.  I love having reminders of my sweet girl with me all day–this will be especially important when I return to work in a few weeks!
  6. I need these shoes.
  7. When Matt gets home, he gets his Eleanor and daddy time and mommy heads off to take a shower.  Feels like a trip to the spa with a quick face mask and fancy shower gel!
  8. Speaking of spas…this mama could use a work up.  Hair, nails, and a reminder about how to wear makeup.  Pretty much all I wear is chapstick and when I am feeling fancy, a quick swipe of lip color.  Gotta get back in the groove!

Hope you all have a great weekend!
Erin

The babe and me at 34 weeks! 
Things have been super busy, but I have tried to carve out a few calm moments to catch up with friends or sip a decaf latte.

The baby room set up!  More to come soon!

Last weekend was our baby shower with friends and family!  Baby is already so blessed!

Our baby already has the cutest friends in town!

We are nearing 37 weeks and it feels like we are coasting from here!  Baby could be here any day!  My mom and sister headed back to Columbus with us on Sunday for a week of bonding and final baby prep!  EEEK!

What have you all been up to?!  Hope you all have a chance to relax this week with your loved ones!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Good morning, friends!! Long time no see!!  It has been a long few weeks with busy work schedules and a brief stay in the hospital courtesy of a very much accidental run-in with a student.  All is great with baby–and mom and dad are mostly just tired and a little freaked out that baby will be here in exactly one month!

The time has finally arrived for us to celebrate this sweet little nugget so we are jetting off to Matt’s hometown this weekend and then my mom and sister are headed back to Columbus for a week of fun ALL of next week!  To say I am excited would be a serious understatement.

Here are some of my traveling essentials for my final road trip until baby arrives!!

  1. A cute water bottle to stay hydrated.  May mean we have to stop to pee every ten minutes, but it will keep the leg cramps at bay!
  2.  Snacks!  These little morsels of sunflower cinnamon delight are where it’s at!
  3. A cozy blanket scarf.  I scored this little gem at H&M the other weekend and I have basically worn it every single day since.  So so cozy.
  4. A cozy sweater/sweatshirt.  A preggo must.
  5. My trusty hot/cold pack.
  6. NARS Blush.
  7. Fresh Lip Tint in Tulip.
  8. Formula X Nail Color.  This stuff dries SO fast.
  9. Baggu Bags are the bomb.com.
  10. I have posted about these slippers before.  The bottoms are hard, so they are basically like shoes, so that means you can wear them most of the day.

SO, what about you guys, what are you up to this weekend?  What have I missed??

Happy Friday!!
Erin

Good morning!!  And happy almost Halloween!  I pretty much celebrate this holiday all month long by binge eating candy and watching Hocus Pocus on repeat.  This weekend  I am flying solo as Matt has jetted off to our dear friends’ wedding in Florida.  I am incredibly sad to be missing it, but with this baby on the horizon in less than 7 weeks, flying just wasn’t an option for me.  SO to cheer myself up, I have planned a mega girly, treat yo’ self, relaxing weekend.  Here’s what’s on the agenda starting at 3:30 today.

  1. Cozying up with pillows and lots o’ blankets is a top priority.  It is absolutely freezing in our house and Matt is a real stickler about that thermostat.  I’m sure he has an app that would alert him if I even walked passed it.
  2. Baking!  Tonight I am thinking pumpkin bread and tomorrow morning these pumpkin spice waffles.
  3. When Matt is not around I actually get to brew my decaf coffee and indulge in perhaps more than my one daily cup.  If I could, I would drink coffee all day long.  Mostly because I have a thing for coffee mugs.
  4. You guys.  How stunning is this chair?  I definitely have some lounging on the agenda this weekend and I certainly wouldn’t mind doing it in this beaut.
  5. I was wearing Essie Smokin’ Hot well before it was seasonally appropriate.  What can I say?  I’m obsessed.
  6. Cute matches and candles.
  7. I was down another three pounds at this week’s appointment.  Soooooooo I’m thinking I can indulge more than normal this weekend?  I want these pretzels!
  8. Cozy slippers are the first thing happening when I get home.  I cannot wait.

I also have high hopes of getting out to do a little shopping this weekend, but I am having a whole lotta trouble with my hips.  I am almost done Christmas shopping and I am determined to finish in the next week or so!  May have to resort to staying cuddled up and having it shipped.  But there’s just something about hitting’ the shops for the holidays!

So what about you all?  What do you have up your sleeves for the big holiday weekend?  Hope you have a marvelous weekend!
