This is what my new 5pm happy hour looks like and I don’t hate it. ⁣ ⁣ I had no idea prior to my researching, how important the first 1000 days (conception - 2 years) is to a baby. This is when the most important brain and body developments happens. So it’s my mission to give this lady only the best. thefirst1000days⁣ ⁣ This weeks menu includes avocados, chard, and Japanese sweet potatoes 🙌🏻. Right now I’m loving @yumi and making my own food, but @happybaby and @plumorganics may be some go-tos when I’m on the go! Only if I could get myself to consistently eat this healthy...

Reminiscing back to days where sunshine and blue skies were a thing in central ny.

Who lives in a place where it’s sunny right now? I’m moving there.

Where did the last 2 years ago?! I can’t believe Wyatt will be 3 in a few months, and yes we’re still rocking the crib. I can’t imagine life without 2 babies in 2 cribs, and giving Wyatt full reign, but I know we need to make the switch for her sooner than later. When did everyone find a good time was to transition to a bed? Any tips?

I’ve never been big into New Years Resolutions but I’m definitely feeling it for 2022.

Per usual, goal #1 will be to start eating healthier and working out consistently, and goal #2 not get every.single.cold that goes through the house 😳. I’m planning on trying this whole macro counting thing. Has anyone tried it? I’d love to hear some other healthy resolutions! Until then, enjoy all the wine and leftovers you can handle.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted this but here is a nice immune boosting smoothie!

1 cup cashews (soaked in hot water for 30 mins)
2 carrots
1 naval orange
1/4 cup orange juice
2 cups fresh pineapple
1 banana tumeric

There was once a day where I cleaned this playroom up every night, but two kids later and seeing it this clean and organized is a rare sighting 👀.

One of the smallest but favorites rooms in my house. I wanted Anthony’s room to be a relaxing, and peaceful space, especially after this past year. Now we just need him to sleep through the night in here 🤞🏻

Now more than ever I am grateful for my air purifier from @beabausa. With everything going on right now and with asthma in our genetics, I rest a lot easier knowing that she’s breathing in the cleanest air, free of pollen, pet dander, and bacteria. The best part is the night mode so I don’t have to worry about the noise or lights waking her up.

This place is starting to look pretty familiar these days. Every day has been a marathon, with both of us working full time with a little sassy girl that’s growing up so fast. I’ll never forget this extra time spent with her ❤️

I really wish inner thigh rolls were just as cute on 31 year old adult women....

I thought I’d be able to get more in shape during this quarantine but with the refrigerator less than 10 feet away and Joanna Gaines “home in the kitchen” on repeat, it’s definitely the opposite.

Our next vacation is FINALLY booked to Portugal and of course there is a global pandemic in full swing. We’re just going to pretend that everything will clear up by July at the moment 😬

I’m taking any and all suggestions on how to travel with a 1 year old....internationally....with a 5 hour time difference...nbd http://liketk.it/2LtNH #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKbaby #LTKtravel #LTKkids Download the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to shop this pic via screenshot

Plan: create a playroom so I have somewhere to organize/shove all the toys and a place where she can play while I prep dinner/clean dishes, etc.⁣
⁣
Reality: bolts out of the room as soon as she sees me in the kitchen 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

Totally missing the week off I had with her recently 😢 working full time is very hard with a baby but I know it would be very hard for me to be a full time stay at home mom. Is there ever any balance? http://liketk.it/2J9VH #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKbaby #LTKbump #LTKunder50

Ok let’s talk about baby food for a minute. Why is baby food introduction so confusing? How much to feed, how often and what is this baby led weaning?⁣
⁣
Unfortunately I can tell Wyatt is getting to the point where she wants actual food and isn’t so in love with purées anymore. So over the next couple weeks we’re going to give this baby led weaning a try...pass the xanax please. Any recommendations are welcome!

It doesn’t take much for me to get an idea in my head and just completely run with it, no matter what other things are going on. So I got the idea before Christmas that this playroom/office needed to be completed, and here it is. However just like every interior project I have, I never feel like it’s actually done....I’m still working on wrapping up Wyatt’s room...8 months later. ⁣
⁣
So far this playroom has been absolutely amazing! I can work on my laptop when she’s playing, and shut the door when I don’t feel like cleaning up the mess. ⁣

⁣
FYI, I wasn’t able to link anything IKEA but the shelves and frames are from there. The prints are from Mpix.

I can’t wait to receive my @yeahbabygoods footstool newly released! Right now it’s out of stock but should be back soon!

I’m back! So between this thing called parenting, colds, birthdays, and the holidays, I’ve really neglected this account (and blog). Part of my New Years resolution is to try and not give up lol but also create more of a focus.

Soooo in my stories you’ll find some polls asking everyone what they would like to see more of so I can keep creating content and sharing information that people actually want to see/read!!

I’ve always heard that babies change everything but I never really understood what that meant until this little girl came along. They are the best thing that could ever happen to you but man are they hard!

I feel like at 6 months we are now at a really good spot but the first couple months were a little rough. My best advice to mamas to be or those thinking about having a baby is to take lots of naps and watch every single show on Netflix 😂.

Now that summer is officially over (too soon?), it’s time to start back on a skin care routine. Now is actually the best time to start it up again since you won’t be in the sun as much.

I’ve linked some of my favorite clean skin care products on the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to that I’ve either tried and loved or is next on my list.

I’d love to hear what you’re favorites are too!

Happy Labor Day!!! Totally feeling more like fall today and totally starting my diet tomorrow (3rd times a charm?). I’m going to fight the fall football snacks and try to attempt Whole30 or a paleo type of diet for the next month. Anyone else working towards a new fall diet? I would love to hear what you’re planning!

Wyatt’s favorite toys usual entail bright colors, crinkle noises, and maybe a mirror here and there. So when I introduced her to Lola the Llama here, I didn’t think it was going to do much for her. To my surprise, it was like love at first sight for her and now they are besties. 😂

If you haven’t heard of them, Cuddle + kind is an amazing company! For every doll they sell, they give 10 meals to children in need. They are made with high quality cotton so it’s supperrr soft and cuddly. They are also handcrafted by women in Peru, providing them with fair trade income.

Something else to note is that this toy is NONTOXIC! This is very important to me because Wyatt put just about everything in her mouth, so I don’t have to worry about what kind of foreign materials or chemicals might be imbedded, like I do with other toys.
Note: I was gifted this item, however this a 100% honest review and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their product.

I’m super excited to be working on some local interior projects! One thing that makes a huge difference in a room is pillows. No you may never use them a whole lot but they can really transform a room or give a nice pop of color!

This is one of my favorite photos of my baby girl and I but I’m not going to lie, every single article of clothing we have on was covered in poop by the end of this photoshoot 😂. Honestly, I wish I had a before and after. ⁣
⁣
We are finally rounding the corner of starting solids and I can only imagine all of the new messes we are about to encounter. Wyatt just turned 4 months and things have never been better - she’s sleeping through the night and is super giggly (the best noise ever!). I’m still in such shock that my little newborn is now 4 months!

Ok I know it’s only been 4 months with this wall but I’m kind of obsessing over all of these wallpaper accent walls I’m seeing. Who’s with me on this trend?! #sorrynotsorry
