It’s #nationalmargaritaday and the best way to celebrate is by pairing it with some delicious Mexican food! Thankfully we have some amazing chicken verde enchiladas and Spanish rice from our @dinnerelf Julianna after yesterday’s session and it goes together so well. After shoveling snow and a busy, chilly day, I can’t think of a better way to end the day!

Another day and another discovery in my closet. I pulled these Wit & Wisdom skinny utility pants out a week or two ago and they’ve been sitting to the side since then. Today’s forecast is a bit windy & cooler than usual so the perfect day to wear them out after a two year hiatus (they didn’t fit until about 6-7 months postpartum). It’s Day 6 of sticking to my shop my closet concept and I think I’m doing well so far!

#LTKWorkwear #LTKFindsUnder100

Day 2 of shopping my closet. Yesterday was my first day doing it (and I wore a gifted tunic top and my Old Navy jeans) but I am trying to do my very best to not buy anything new this month and go through what I have and rediscover old loves (hello leopard sandals!! 😍🐆)- and donate or sell what I no longer love. Two days down since got this, right?!

#LTKworkwear #LTKfindsunder50

Spring has finally landed after some false starts and I’m here for it! My latest work obsession is linen pants since they’ve all been unpacked from winter storage. Catch me in the office being cute and cozy! 🙌🏻

At least once a year we always make sure we don’t forget about our family- home or abroad. One of my favorite shoots and the first time I didn’t mind getting a little dirty or splashed for! (Also what’s up with an actual post instead of the daily photo story drops?) Aloha friends!

Saturday Starbucks ✅. Entertained kid ✅. Happy weekend!

A little rain giving us a sense of fall which means pulling out fall favorites. It’s also my first time in jeans since I gave birth and hey heyyyyy! I’m loving this bow tie sweater and im so glad I picked up two different colors- my closet desperately needed some updated sweaters!

#LTKworkwear #LTKSeasonal #LTKfindsunder100

Little Miss is 12 weeks today and there’s 10 weeks between these two photos. While I’m not wear I want to be yet, I am celebrating the fact this romper fits a tad bit better than it did 2.5 months ago! Progress, not perfection (and I really need to keep reminding myself of that).

#LTKfitness #LTKfindsunder100

Give me 79° weather all year. The perfect temp! Pulling dresses and sandals out that fit again feels like a whole new wardrobe without the price tag. 😅 This dress will work perfectly for the last few weeks of summer weather and as we transition into fall weather- which hopefully is a ways out!

#LTKworkwear #LTKunder50

Long weekend vibes I’m here for. Appreciating summer for every last day we have left!

#LTKunder50 #LTKSeasonal

Sprucing up my “ in between” wardrobe (IYKYK) with this mixed and matched outfit. The skirt is so soft against the legs that are screaming at me after several brutal leg workouts so that’s good… 🫠. This is also perfect for the office - says I’m professional even though my attitude sometimes reflects less than that. 😂

My days now consist of cleaning instead of seeing iconic landmarks.

0/10 recommend.

Take me back to London!

#LTKtravel #LTKunder50

Paris is always a good idea… and so are family photos! Who needs souvenirs when you have these photos as incredible memories?! 🇫🇷❤️

#LTKtravel #LTKunder50 #LTKeurope

39 weeks and last family outing before Little Miss arrives to meet her family! Saw Aladdin last night and it was SO good! This maternity mini dress was the perfect summer evening outfit … and might remain in my closet even after baby.

#LTKunder50 #LTKbump

My first maternity session and the perfect way to wrap up my three surrogacy journies and this entire chapter of my life. I know I’ll miss feeling Little Miss rolling around my belly but I’m so excited for her and her parents and their life together!

#LTKfamily #LTKbump #LTKunder100

The first day of April was definitely no joke here! It was the perfect day to head to the zoo and enjoy one last family day for Spring Break. It was also the perfect day to wear my maternity shorts since this Mama is over pants! Can this be my new work outfit?! So comfy!

#LTKunder50 #LTKfamily #LTKbump

I took the plunge (ok ok half plunge) for the Special Olympics & the Law Enforcement Torch Run and I had way more fun than I expected. Our team of 10 helped raise over $1,000 and all the teams combined raised over $100,000 combined. This was also a good reminder of why it was my first and last 5K while pregnant- thankfully Riley helped pull me along on the leash. 😅 My On Clouds have lasted me through pregnancy as have my Lululemon Align leggings- comfort is key as I get bigger.

#LTKfit #LTKbump

Happy anniversary to my best friend & husband of 13 years! Time flies when you’re having fun and I can’t believe it’s already been this long!! Looking forward to a lifetime more of adventure together. ❤️

#LTKunder100 #LTKbump

Happy New Year! Rang in 2023 on FaceTime with my husband while he was working and then spent today doing things for how I want the year to go… organized, a tiny bit of travel, me time, great company & relaxed. We also enjoyed some great food and I could live in this one piece bodysuit. How’d you spend the first day of 2023?

#LTKbump #LTKstyletip #LTKHoliday

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! Santa was generous all the way around but the best part of the day has been being with our family- work & blood. Wishing you a day full of everything you deserve! ❤️🤍🎅🏻

#LTKfamily #LTKbump #LTKSeasonal

It's Christmas vacation finally! The house is a mess and there's so much to be done but we're all off for the first time since Little Man was born. Staying warm today in these frigid temps with my Lulu Align’s, Sorels (wool socks make a huge difference!) and my Mama sweatshirt I’m stretching out with Lil P’s bump.

#LTKbump #LTKSeasonal #LTKunder100

I decided I had to have this as my Hanukkah dinner outfit about 2 hours before…. But I didn’t have it in maternity. So me trying to snap a non-maternity bodysuit had me laughing hysterically while also out of breath from repeated attempts. Like an elephant trying to shove it’s butt into skinny jeans… 😂. If I were to add some more maternity clothing in, this would be it!

#LTKHoliday #LTKunder50 #LTKbump

My black outfit reflects my attitude about waking up every morning at 0630…. Not a fan. But this Spanx jacket is everything and if I could wear my leopard Freebird boots year round, I would! I’ll confirm I asked Santa for another pair of Freebird this year- I love them that much! What’s on your Christmas list?

#LTKbump #LTKworkwear #LTKshoecrush

It’s only been a few months since I posted (😅) but life has gotten incredibly different and honestly draining. But my bump & I are back!

#LTKworkwear #LTKbump #LTKunder100

Holding onto summer as long as we can! The pools might be closed but thankfully, splash pads never go out of style!

#LTKunder50 #LTKswim #LTKSeasonal

A long holiday weekend is just what I’ve needed! Family time, time to organize the house up and the chance to get our first haul from our garden- and no dogs to worry about eating it! 😅 What are your holiday plans if you’re celebrating?

#LTKfamily #LTKSeasonal #LTKswim

Happy Father’s Day to the guy who works so hard for us, spoils us, travels the world for us, and tolerates us (ok mostly me!). We hope you enjoy your day babe and we love you so much!!

#LTKfamily #LTKtravel

Spent all day unpacking and doing laundry just to realize I had zero food I wanted cook… or the motivation to cook. 🤷🏻‍♀️ You’d think I’d be tired of eating out after a week away but nope. In reality I needed a reason to wear my new @onrunning The Rogers out as well as this tank top that couldn’t be any more perfect for me! You can find it at www.shopspinoff.com- the owner is such a sweetheart!

#LTKshoecrush #LTKunder50

Take me back to the beach please! I didn’t realize my husband was taking this photo but he got the moment I’d closed my eyes and was just listening to the ocean, the kids playing and enjoying the smell of the ocean water. Definitely prefer this over unpacking!

#LTKswim #LTKtravel #LTKunder100

“It’s just you and me and the sea.” 🌊

Our photos from our family photo shoot came back and I’m dying over how much I love them! Pulled some ideas in advance so they weren’t the traditional cruise portraits and they turned out so much better than I could have imagined! 💕

#LTKtravel #LTKfamily

After 26 months we finally boarded a cruise ship when we were supposed to instead of being cancelled. The boarding is always one my favorites for a cruise vacation- especially in a cute new outfit. I picked up this romper on my birthday and knew it would be perfect for this trip! What are your favorite vacation must haves?

#LTKstyletip #LTKunder100 #LTKtravel

First birthday fun with friends for a beautiful little girl today. And a chance to grab an OOTD picture that isn’t in a locker room at work 😆. My wardrobe has been dresses and wedges lately and I’m living for it- especially these Tory Burch Miller Soft Sandals. I just got a third pair and they’re heaven! Are you team wedges or team sandals?

#LTKSeasonal #LTKshoecrush #LTKstyletip

Second Soring is here and taking full advantage of it! Picked up some new all day sneakers so broke them in with a walk around with the neighborhood with the little man and the puppy. It also helped justify inhaling 5 street tacos for lunch… 🙃🤣. Highly recommend On Clouds- my absolute new favorite workout and all day sneakers! So much that I’ve gone from 0 to 4 pairs in less than a week. 🙈

#LTKfit #LTKshoecrush

When you Instagram on your lunch break, you find all the cute things! 🙈 Like these @target All in Motion pants. These will be perfect for our trip and staying comfy during 10.5 hours of flying. The style of a jogger with the material of a windbreaker- love!

#LTKstyletip #LTKtravel #LTKunder50

Late starts from snowy weather means mirror selfies again! 😆 Since I’m usually headed to work in workout gear, it’s nice to get dressed at home for once. Dragging out my boots and comfy cardigans for this sunny, yet, chilly day… even if I was wishing it was sweats and sneakers.
