The week is off to a good start! The weather is beautiful and I’m wearing my new favorite sweater that is the perfect shade of pink 💓 I’ll link it in case you’re interested in snatching one up for yourself (it’s 40% off)! http://liketk.it/2Yy3L @liketoknow.it #liketkit #sweaterweather #fall #ltkunder50 #likeit #ltksale

We are having so much fun swimming! Wells LOVES the water and he is definitely living his best life this weekend ☀️💦🍉 Last week I asked if there was such a thing as a swimsuit bottom that actually covers your bottom. Most of you agreed it’s a unicorn but I got several suggestions to look into and believe it or not, I found one! 👙 And not only does it actually cover what it’s supposed to cover, I think it’s the most flattering swimsuit I’ve ever owned. I’m linking it with @liketoknow.it because you will definitely want it this summer!! http://liketk.it/2Pw3p #liketkit #summer #swimsuit

47,565. The number of @chickfila points we’ve accumulated. Is it embarrassing or something to be proud of? 😆 How many CFA points do you have? I’ll give a $10 Chick Fil A giftcard to the first person that comments who has more than me. http://liketk.it/2JPaX #liketkit @liketoknow.it #chickfila

Had a really productive week that consisted of binging on Cheer then stalking everyone’s IG profiles for a solid hour after. Who else has watched and how hard did you gasp when NO ONE WAS THERE to catch Sherbs. I was so nervous for Daytona. I told Scott that routine was just TOO HARD for them to be able to pull off. Is Cheer going to be a thing now or was that just a one and done? Kind of need it to be a thing. http://liketk.it/2Jfbc @liketoknow.it #liketkit #cheernetflix

Merriest Christmas to you and yours! I hope your holiday is pure magic this year!! I am all set and ready to sit back and enjoy Christmas with my family. I have a feeling this is going to be an amazing Christmas with my three (well, four!) boys!! Currently listening to Nat King Cole sing The Christmas Song and getting all the Christmas feels 🎄❄️✨ although I think my favorite Christmas song is I Heard The Bells by Casting Crowns 🙌🏻 Whats yours? {Linked this outfit on my blog for those of you who don’t have the @liketoknow.it app}. http://liketk.it/2IsBQ #liketkit

I’m planning to wrap up my Christmas shopping tomorrow 🎅🏼 Got a babysitter to watch the kiddos so I can shop in peace 🙌🏻 Will probably grab a few things for myself as a prize for finishing my shopping 😆 I know I’m not the only one who does that, right? 🎄🦌📯 http://liketk.it/2IcJi #liketkit @liketoknow.it

In bed and ready to dive into the new season of The Crown. It’s been TOO long since it last aired and I’m anxious to pick up where it left off. The Crown is one of my all time favorite shows ever!! //🍁 Sharing this look on my blog today. I think we caught these trees just in time before the freeze took the pretty leaves away 🍂 http://liketk.it/2H4CK @liketoknow.it #liketkit #whatiwore #styleguide #fallfashion #streetstyle #ootd #stylediaries

Planning to get crazy tomorrow night with some Netflix documentaries 😆 Seriously I LOVE watching documentaries. Some recent favorites have been Super Size Me 2 and Inside Bill’s Brain which was a super interesting 3-part docuseries on Bill Gates. The interviewer asked him a very interesting question: what has been the worst day of your life? You often hear people ask you the best day of your life but never the worst. It gave me and my husband pause and we asked each other the same question. It led to some interesting conversation. I highly recommend both documentaries if you’re into that sort of thing....or even if you aren’t! Anyone have a documentary recommendation for me? I’d love to watch a new one this weekend. 🤓 {Linking some of my favorite pieces from the @nordstrom sale here and on my blog!} @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2GEkK #ootd #whatimwearing #streetstyle #ltkunder50 #ontheblog #stylediaries

In case you didn’t see it in my stories, I took my 100th ride on the Peloton this afternoon and it was 🔥. Beat my 45 minute record by 4 points and it literally looked like I took a swim once I was done 💦 #sweaxy 😅 In case you can’t tell, I’m a little obsessed with the Peloton. 💁🏻‍♀️ In a completely unrelated note, I’m trying to keep up with the times and learn how to slide to text. Not easy. Are you doing it or no? My entire outfit is linked with the @liketoknow.it app and on my blog! http://liketk.it/2GzAW #liketkit #fallfashion #ootd #styleguide #stylediaries #whatimwearing

I did a poll in my stories asking if you decorate for Christmas before or after Thanksgiving and 68% of you voted after. I’m in the after category too. I LOVE decorating my house for Christmas but I also love decorating it for fall too. I have little bits of fall sprinkled here and there throughout my house and I enjoy looking at it through Thanksgiving. I usually don’t decorate until the weekend after Thanksgiving because I’m too busy doing family and Black Friday sales 😂 the weekend of Thanksgiving. So I’ll be over here embracing all the pumpkins while I can! 🍁🍁🍁 http://liketk.it/2GdhM @liketoknow.it #liketkit #fall #whatiwore #stylegram #ootd #pumpkinpatch

Hello! This is my uniform and basically what I wear every day. 💁🏻‍♀️ #socomfy | Three Things: 1.) my backyard is turning all pretty and fall-like and I thanked the Lord today for those beautiful trees because they truly bring me joy. 2.) Most commonly asked question I get these days is about the Peloton. Still obsessed, still riding every morning at 6:00 am. 3.) because of said Peloton rides, I’m officially 1lb under my pre-pregnancy weight 🎉. I’m 9 months postpartum (next week) and I’ve been working to get this weight off this entire time. The first 16ish pounds fell off immediately then the remaining was sooo slow to come off. I was getting frustrated and that’s when I turned to Peloton. One of the best decisions I’ve made for myself. I LOVE not just the rides but the strengthening classes too. The weight loss has just been the bonus because what I love most is how much stronger I am, the stamina I have on my rides, and the high I get from this awesome workout + the fun community of people I ride with. It’s been so great and I can not recommend it enough. 🚴🏻‍♀️💪🏻 My husband is obsessed too BTW and the amount of time we spend talking about our rides is probably humorous 🤓 http://liketk.it/2G0mL @liketoknow.it #liketkit #celebrateinsweat #peloton

Gave my front porch a fall makeover this weekend while my cute little boss supervised! 🍂🐿🍁 http://liketk.it/2Fz7p @liketoknow.it #liketkit #fall #fallporch #ootd

Happy October!! 🍁 So basic in my pumpkin patch with my Starbucks but being basic in the fall is totally my jam and I’m not even sorry about it. Sharing this camel colored poncho today because it’s 50% off ➕ free shipping!! I shared this poncho last year in a different color and it was my most popular outfit to date. Linking it and my most comfy jeans with the @liketoknow.it app and on my blog too!! http://liketk.it/2FqnB #liketkit #october #fallfashion #ltksale #ltkunder50 #ootd #whatimwearing

Put a poll on my stories asking you what you thought about the ending of Toy Story 4. After taking a few minutes to reflect on it, I decided that I loved it....even if it broke my heart a little. Definitely didn’t cry as hard as I did at the end of Toy Story 3 though. I took my nephew to see TS3 when it came out and literally have never cried harder at the end of any movie than I do at that one. Do as in present tense because I still cry ever time I watch it!! 😭🤣
What movie did you cry the hardest watching? Other than TS3, I’d have to put Marley & Me, The Notebook and My Dog Skip at the top of my list. 😪 http://liketk.it/2CSfv @liketoknow.it #liketkit #Instastyle #stylegram #streetstyle #momstyle

Beach Days = Best Days 🌼🌴☀️ @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2C10N #liketkit

I frequently get asked how life with three is going and honestly, it’s just fine! Really no different than two in my opinion. My days fly by because I feel really busy all day but I don’t mind it. The biggest change for me is that I rarely go anywhere with all three unless Scott is with me because why would I do that to myself? 😂 So we stay home a lot. When Campbell was a baby I would get cabin fever and always wanted to be out of the house with him but now that I have three I prefer to just stay home. It’s much easier that way ☺️ @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2BvLG #liketkit

We are headed to 30A next month! Specifically Seacrest Beach. This is our first time so we need all the info! Where should we eat? What activities are there for my boys to do? And I obviously need to hear about all the great boutiques!! Overwhelm me with all the good info!! 👇🏻 @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2B7K3 #liketkit #30A

We decided, around 9:30 AM, to get out of the house today and go do something. Finally made it out of the door at 1:00. Also, tonight I said to Scott “we should watch a movie this evening” and he said “it’s already 7:30 it’s too late to watch a movie.” So basically we’re really slow these days and also a little tired. 🙃 @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2zYg1 #liketkit #athleisure #streetstyle #currentlywearing

Wearing the cutest sweater today. It’s only $30 and will be perfect for Valentines Day! Hoping it pairs well with my favorite sweatpants because chocolate and Netflix are what my personal Valentine dreams are made of. ❤️💗❣️💘 @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2zN38 #liketkit #ltkunder50 #whatimwearing #ootd #stylediaries #ltksale

Lots of thoughts on my last month of pregnancy on my blog today. My “birth plan” (I use that term loosely), where we are on his name, and how much longer I think I have left before he arrives....just to name a few. My pregnancy posts are always my most popular (5 years and running!!) so figured I’d share 😚 In other news, I’m already in bed. Because after experiencing BH contractions literally all day long, I feel like I’ve run a marathon....and I’m exhausted. ✌🏻😴🤰🏻 http://liketk.it/2ztc5 @liketoknow.it #liketkit #ltkbump #bumpdate #pregnancy #ontheblog

I had my very last ultrasound today. Baby looks great and seemed really comfy even though he was basically folded in half. I was hoping to get a good look at his little face but he was too squished to be able to make out much of anything. Just a few short weeks before we get to meet him and I can hardly wait! Now excuse me while I go clean out and organize my pantry—a must do before baby arrives, obviously 😜💁🏻‍♀️ http://liketk.it/2zl6x @liketoknow.it #liketkit #ltkbump #pregnancy

Scott had to put these boots on for me today so that’s where I am in life right now. #sopregnant @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2zgQ6 #liketkit #ltkbump #ootd #whatiwore #34weeks #stylegram

My 34 week update is on my blog! If this little guy follows the same pattern as his big brothers, he’ll be here in 3 weeks! 🤭 I’m curious to know if you followed a pattern when you went into labor? Were you always close to your due date, a week over, a week ahead, two weeks ahead, etc. It seems like most people I know have always followed the same pattern but maybe not! Let me know below because I really am curious to hear!! @liketoknow.it #liketkit #ltkbump #currentlywearing #pregnancy #stylegram #maternitystyle http://liketk.it/2zdUX
