going back to work after baby can be super difficult, emotionally and just with trying to juggle so many moving parts. today on my blog, i’m sharing my advice to transition back to work after baby, whether you work from home or from an office!

since i heard that goat cheese balls even existed through watching my guilty pleasure, vanderpump rules, i was shook. i could eat goat cheese everyday. even by itself. and how i’ve never made these before is beyond me. but here we are! the season finale is on tonight so the timing couldn’t be more perfect for this recipe.

head over to my blog for two goat cheese ball recipes plus my opinion on this (boring af) season of vanderpump.

arizona is starting to open back up, but we’re going to stay quarantined a little bit longer just to be safe! to keep home cozy and my mood happy, i always try to incorporate a few of my favorite things into my day... you know, the little things that really make you happy, like candles, a face mask, socks 😂

on my blog today, i talk about 8 small joys to curate into your days 💫🥰

just an urban mama with her urban babe. happy Saturday, friends 💫🧃

@liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2OyHA

i feel like i might be opposite from most mamas where the newborn phase for me seemed much easier looking back. toddlers are tough. and they truly test your patience.

but through all the hard days, i still go to sleep at night missing him and excited to see his face in his crib in the morning. i keep reminding myself that with all the fun exciting “firsts”, there are “lasts” to everything too. but the thing about the “lasts”, is you never know when they’re happening. looking at this photo i am already confused at how grown up he’s become in a year and a half! next month he will be halfway to 2... *cue tears*

i love you through it all canny babe. we are so lucky. ❤️💫

ready to put my @thetarahair basic beach waves method to the test in mexico! here’s the order of products i use after my hair is dry from showering:

1. @unite_hair 7-seconds glossing spray
2. @hottoolspro 1-1/4” extended barrel
3. follow basically hair beach waves tutorial!
4. spritz @unite_hair beach day for an extra salty-beach-hair vibe (i LOVE this freakin stuff)
5. hold the style with a little @unite_hair max control ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
>>> i will probably do this style tonight, and then just head down to the beach and use the natural salt from the air as my texturizing spray for tomorrow and the next day 😂 nothing is better than salty hair!! #vacationhair #beachhair #basicallyhair #beachhairdontcare @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2OnHi

who is doing puzzles during quarantine? thor and i would potentially kill each other if we did one together with pieces this small 🤣 likely because he’d be hoarding the one piece i was desperately looking for.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
so the only puzzles we’ll be doing are cannon’s 1-year-old puzzles! 🧩 😊

i’ve linked really aesthetically pleasing jigsaw puzzles on my @liketoknow.it that would make for a great ig pic 😍

I just posted a new blog post inspired by Vogue’s ’73 Questions’ series. There, I share a lot more “in the weeds” details that I think tell a lot about a person. Here’s a few to give you a sneak peek:

Through my online presence, my goal is to share my personal experiences and lifestyle tips in hopes that it might help or inspire someone in some way. Whether that’s with the best new Trader Joe’s product or real and raw personal situation I’ve been through. Let’s cultivate a fun, engaging and honest community >> this is a no judgement zone!
