Little Monster First Birthday Party
You guys…it’s official. We have a ONE YEAR OLD (ok technically he’s already 14 months, but it’s been busy over here!). I honestly cannot believe it! The past year has absolutely flown by. High Chair // “One” Banner I admittedly started thinking about and planning for his first birthday party several months in advance (I was just so excited!). Initially I had a few themes I was deciding between, but when I started seeing monster themed parties pop up on Pinterest, it was an easy decision. I loved the colorful decorations and the cute little monsters scattered throughout. Luckily Blake loved it too and then everything quickly came together! Cake Stand…

Luke’s 10 Month Update
Whew – it’s been a while since I’ve posted here! This season of life has been so busy, crazy, and fun, but with working full time and trying to spend every other minute possible with Luke and Blake, the blog has 100% taken a backseat. And I needed the break – writing here is definitely a release for me, but choosing quality time with Blake or extra zzz’s has been what I needed to focus on when I did have any free time after Luke was asleep. All that to say…I’m back with an update post on Luke! I feel like SO much has happened in the past two months…

10 Tips for Returning to Work after Maternity Leave
I have a coworker who will be returning from maternity leave soon and she recently reached out asking for some tips on how to prepare. As I was responding to her email, I figured I’d turn it into a blog post as well for any other new moms or moms-to-be out there! I went through so many emotions during my maternity leave…your hormones are WACKO and you are running on such little sleep that some days I wasn’t sure how I was going to make it to the end of the day! And then at the same time, you are soaking up precious memories with a teeny tiny human and…

Luke’s 8 Month Update
Hi friends! Today’s post is all about Luke and what he’s been up to over the past two months. The last (and first!) update I did was when he was six months and SO much has happened in those two short months! I swear he’s gotten so much bigger and has learned so many new things. I’ll plan on doing update posts about every two months (both for me to document this time in our lives as well as to share any tips or products we’ve come across!). I’m sure I’ll say this every time…but this stage is so fun!! *Note – this post contains affiliate links. These affiliate links…

Luke’s 6 Month Update
I seriously cannot believe that Luke is already SIX MONTHS!! It seems like just yesterday that I was pregnant and packing my bag for the hospital. (I recently shared Luke’s birth story which you can check out here if you’re interested). I started this blog when Luke was about four months old, so I don’t have any recaps yet…I’m excited to start sharing updates every few months to share with you all and to have as a record as he gets older. This one will be a little longer (especially the sleep section) since I have some catch up to do to get us to this point, so grab a…
