Edited to add: If it was unclear at any point, my family and I are taking COVID very seriously, strictly following the four major preventative measures of good hygiene (e.g., thorough and regular hand washing), maintaining physical distancing, wearing masks in public when in situations where physical distancing could be compromised, and staying in our house. We have taken every precaution possible when receiving deliveries, and we are extremely careful when handling any sort of take-out. For these reasons, and…

A few things I’ve been loving lately: – J Crew PJ’s – I was tired of sleeping in random nursing shirts and now that Avery isn’t eating in the middle of the night, I treated myself to some new pajamas. I’ll pretty much only sleep in jersery cotton with loose waistbands, so these are perfect. I need to get a long sleeved pair to replace my giant pregnancy pajamas. -Ithaca Hummus – this is seriously the best store bought hummus…
-I still can’t believe she was in my body just 6 months ago!! -Some days we aren’t doing much at all, but it still feels so busy – now that Avery is eating three meals a day, it seems like she’s eating breast milk or solids like every 2 seconds. Between all the eating/snacks/naps, the days really do fly by. -So glad we’ve done a couple of Green Chef boxes to mix things up for dinner during this quarantine. We…
Avery is six months old (well 7 next week) and she is just an absolute joy! 6-12 months is my favorite stage EVER and if I could keep having babies in this stage, I would:) She is obsessed with Emerson – won’t eat if Em’s in the room and looks for her everywhere the minute she hears Em’s voice. I LOVE that they are starting to interact and cannot wait to see them play together in the coming months. Avery…
Hello and Happy Earth Day! Between Avery’s teething and staying up late to work on last week’s Beautycounter charity pop-up, I am one tired mama! But, I’m proud to say we raised $966 for the Brooklyn Community Foundation’s COVID Response fund!!! It felt so good to press that DONATE button, so thank you to any of you who shopped for the cause. Now if I could get Avery back to sleeping better at night. Tooth #2 is popping through today,…
We had a lazy [ok, most weekends are lazy, bc we can’t go anywhere] long weekend over here! Knowing we had a three day weekend was amazing and I felt like I was able to relax so much on Easter Sunday. We had nice weather on Saturday, and Matt took the girls out for a walk, so that I could have some time to myself to workout. It was fun to blast music for once! I’ve been resting a lot…
Is anyone else always on the hunt for clean shampoo and conditioners? I’ve tried three this year and am sharing my thoughts below. My hair is color treated, sometimes dry, and pretty oily. Rahua Classic Shampoo + Conditioner I really wanted to love this because I’ve heard such great things. It’s also the most expensive of the three I tried (and 1 oz less product). But, I really don’t like the smell!! I could put up with the smell if…
Happy Monday! I’m sure you guys have seen many of these resources floating around – it was driving me crazy that I didn’t have them all in one place with live links, so I typed them up in a post. Hopefully, someone else will find this helpful too!

-I guess my summer look is going to be long, ombre hair. At least I’ve found someone to paint my toes:) -Emerson and I have started watching our shopper live on Instacart and cheering when we secure something good. “We got eggs!!! We got chocolate chips! Woohoo.” (THANK YOU SHOPPERS!) -I watched one of those videos of someone building their own pool and seriously considered if it was something we could do (sadly, no). -Avery is 6 months old tomorrow.…
