big news!


Hey ladies! I have some BIG, big news. If the bags and coats and other miscellany in front of me haven't given it away, I am pregnant! We are expecting another baby. It's exciting and crazy all wrapped  up together!

Some random facts about this pregnancy:

- Having a style blog is really hard when you are pregnant! I have absolutely no motivation for any type of clothing other than my pjs. And trust me, I really hate being that woman who doesn't get dressed in the morning.

- This go round has been a lot, lot harder than my first pregnancy. I am just hoping that the second trimester goes better!

- I'm fourteen weeks along. The due date is July 27th (which is close to my own birthday). As a friend so aptly put it, there's nothing like a pregnancy to put the big one in perspective.

- I don't really have any cravings right now besides what I can stomach at any given moment.

- I am on a major closet clean out and it's not easy. I think part of my lack of inspiration comes from the fact that I can't find anything in my closet! All those easy to wear clothes are just buried beneath the ones that just look gosh awful now that I've put on some weight.

- I've had a lot of skin problems since I've gotten pregnant. So I went and purchased a Clarisonic Mia. So far, so good. I am hoping it's going to get a lot better! Any other skin care tips would be greatly appreciated!

- I am very scared as to how I am going to be relevant to all you guys once I'm eight months pregnant and it's July. I better get creative...real creative!

- I'm a little nervous about putting myself out there when I'm pregnant. I mean let's be honest it's not like I feel real great about myself, so the last thing I want is negativity about exactly that. My readers have always been super supportive, so I am hoping that keeps being the case!

Well I think that's everything. Nothing much will change on the blog other than my size. This will still be a style blog where I share bits and pieces of my personal life.

Happy Tuesday friends!

Oh and stay tuned for the full outfit details tomorrow!

musings.


sometimes i feel like motherhood is a contact sport and i'm just not ready for another round.

every woman needs a bit of glam in her life. indulge in some.

there are small moments in life i want to remember forever. help me remember.

try emulating a child's innocence and let the world amaze you.

sometimes i look at my family and think, if everyone had this, the world would be a better place.

i need to laugh more and fret less.

dirty dishes can wait a day, shaping my son's life can't.

shed rigidity. embrace spontaneity. schedules are boring but spur of the moment is fun.

just wanted to let you know what is happening today in this moment.

xoxo

Snapshot: Butterflies!





We went to the Nature Museum this weekend.  Here are some highlights:
  • Exploring the butterfly exhibit

  • Goose Island Orange Cream Soda- I didn't even know this existed!  So good!
  • Little bare feet in 70 degree weather
  • One-year-olds practicing their walking
  • Butterflies nesting on orange slices
  • Me and T playing
  • Hanging out in the grass
Hope your weekend was as fun as ours!
