Since we just came back from our first International family trip as a family of three I thought I'd share some of the tips we learned from traveling with a baby. I know I did a lot of research before our trip to try and make the traveling to and from part as painless as possible because let's be honest (and get real) traveling with a baby isn't the same as traveling as a couple or solo, it's pretty much getting a change of scenery and building memories. Your baby's schedule will still dictate what you can and cannot do just like they ... Read more...
Party Planning: Mason’s First Birthday Party
Guys, can you believe Mason is going to be turning one next month?! I can hardly believe it myself. This year has flown by so fast and at the same time these have been some of the longest days of my life. That saying, "the days are long, but the years are short" couldn't be more true right about now. My little baby has grown so much and watching him develop has been quite the treat.

Updating Mason’s Nursery with Carter’s by DaVinci Crib
I know I posted about Mason's nursery design before but we've since updated it by adding in a new crib that's part of a collaboration between Carter's and DaVinci and some new decor pieces to help round out his space and add some pops color.

It's constructed with sustainable wood, and finished with non-toxic ... Read more...
Mason’s 10 Month Update + Playtime fun with Skip Hop

I'm not ready for Mason to be turning one and it feels like it's going to sneak up on us quickly. I've finally come to the realization he's going to be turing one before I know it and I've started to work on his invitations and plan is birthday party. Mason is quite the handful right now but he's also the happiest baby. He's so mobile and I swear he gets into everything that I don't want him to. It's like he knows ... Read more...
Maxi-Cosi Pria 85 Max Convertible Car Seat
Before Mason was born I bought the Maxi-Cosi Mico Max 30 infant car seat. I selected it not only because of the safely rating but also for the design. I wanted a car seat that not only functioned well but also looked great. I purchased it during Nordstrom's Anniversary sale also known as the #NSale last summer. I know you might not think of going to Nordstrom for baby gear but I've found so many great baby products at Nordstrom, all while racking up my Nordstrom Notes perfect for using during epic sales like this one! If you're ... Read more...
