Being pregnant, my skin has become more dry, I’m getting breakouts and battling stretchmarks. I’m also more aware of the products I’m using and it’s important to me that I try to use all natural, chemical free beauty items on my skin as much as possible. So I wanted to share what i’m currently using […]
Today I wanted to share my carry on and travel must haves. These items always go with me on trips and are life savers! Socks, my feet are always cold on flights and wearing comfy warm socks are way more comfortable than shoes. This flight, as a prego, I’m rocking my first pair of compression […]
We just got our photos from the maternity shoot we had in Maui and I am in love with them! Thank you, Chelsea Jean Photography! It’s so special that we’ll always have these photos in such a majestical location to remember our babymoon and this special time 🙂
When I started looking for new suits for the summer & our babymoon I was surprised how hard it is to find cute maternity suits. For once, I didn’t have to worry about how my stomach looked in a bikini and I wanted to take advantage, but I also still wanted a good amount of […]
I love traveling. Flying to different destinations was something we did several times a year growing up. With 30 years of experience under my belt, I consider myself a savvy traveler.

I’m writing this on a Sunday afternoon while enjoying a snack and taking a break from all my housework. My energy has really picked up, I can go about 2 hours and then I need to rest, but then I can do another 2 hours. Before, standing in the shower for 5 minutes completely wiped […]
I can’t believe we are already 6 months pregnant! It’s starting to fly by now. I’m relieved to announce i’m finally feeling better – more energy and less nausea. I haven’t thrown up in at least 2 weeks! I still have food aversions (anything in the junk food category) and she really seems to be […]
Last week at my acupuncturist appointment she recommended I start a Paleo diet- cutting gluten and dairy out of my diet specifically, to see if that will help manage my headaches. In the morning, I generally wake up feeling good, it’s once i’ve had breakfast the headaches start, and then after lunch my body completely […]
According to my pregnancy tracker App baby girl is the size of a Spaghetti squash, I can’t believe how big (and real!) she’s getting. Now that we know the gender we are finalizing our baby registry, i’m researching baby shower themes and we’re starting to seriously discuss baby names. I’m relieved to say […]
