Couple Things…

We had father’s day breakfast at a local favorite restaurant al fresco! We made one of our favorite summer recipes for dinner this week – Charred Corn and Zucchini with Basil. Just my friend Martha liking one of my Instagram photos (follow me here!) Get the DIY on the patriotic ice cream cones she likedContinue reading “Couple Things…”

Decoupage

Decoupage is the craft of decorating an item by gluing layers of paper on top of something to cover it – and let me tell you, there is no easier craft to “master” than decoupage. And I say “master” because there’s really no way to mess up decoupage so your project will always come outContinue reading “Decoupage”

Stylish Wipes On the Go

We hit up a cute little festival in our town over the weekend where there were bouncy houses, pony rides, balloon animals, and lollipops – essentially a dream for a 2-year-old. We timed it perfectly with our new guy’s feedings and had a good hour or so to hang out and have some fun. Plus,Continue reading “Stylish Wipes On the Go”

The Peonies Have Bloomed

I have been quiet all week! If you follow me on Instagram, you know our sweet baby boy was born last Thursday morning and we’ve been in the newborn bubble ever since. I forgot how wonderful, tiring, exciting, emotional, and tough these newborn days really are. Luckily our Z has been over-excited if anything aboutContinue reading “The Peonies Have Bloomed”

Since my guy is coming any minute now I have moved on from maternity style to think about what I’ll be wearing this summer in my postpartumContinue reading “What to Wear – Postpartum”

Happy Feet

Back in my mid-college days, I went through quite the hippie phase.

Date Night with Kozy Shack Pudding

Being pregnant while having a two and a half year old hasn’t allowed us to have many date nights lately (although we did go to a Red Sox game a few weeks ago!). So when I was given the opportunity to try Kozy Shack pudding and their Pudding Made Right campaign, I knew just whenContinue reading “Date Night with Kozy Shack Pudding”

Couple Things…

We made the most amazing blueberry buttermilk muffins over the weekend, you have to try this Ina Garten recipe. Z likes to join us as we read the Sunday paper – she is perusing the Toys R Us ad here. This little girl is always up for shopping! A close-up of the “Tickle Monster” printContinue reading “Couple Things…”

What Z Said, part ii

Since I got such fun feedback from my last What Z Said post, I thought I’d put together another because Lord knows she is full of saying funny things right now! When asked how old she is, Z replies “I two half.” After her bath she runs around in her hooded towel pretending to beContinue reading “What Z Said, part ii”
