Twillys are a fun way to customize and dress up your bags. So I wanted to share 8 ways to tie an Hermes Twilly on your bag handles to give you some inspiration. It's up to you if you want to tie a twilly on one or both handles of your bags. In my personal opinion, I think you either wrap a twilly around each handle or none at all. Having a twilly on your bag handles will protect the leather. Therefore, you will get inconsistent wear on your handles if they're not on both. But if you're just looking to get one twilly to decorate your bag with many of these ways to tie an Hermes twilly work great as any accessory to your bag. If you're not concerned about wear on your bag handles, I highly recommend giving these a try! And the beauty about these is you can always switch them up! They're super easy to do, and don't take much time, so on ... Read more...
Mason James’s Nursery
I am so excited to finally reveal Mason's nursery with you all! While Mason isn't sleeping in his nursery yet, I can't wait to see him grow up in that room and enjoy his dreamy neutral nursery. It is definitely my favorite room in our house. And it's also Lexie and Jackson's favorite room. They love lounging in there when they want some quiet time and always follow Mason into the room when he's getting his diaper changed. They're the cutest, so concerned about him and want to make sure they've got an eye on him at all times. I ... Read more...
New Parent Checklist
One thing that I've come to grips with is that now that we've got Mason we're pretty much never going to be on time ever again. Even when I think I'm giving myself plenty of time to get myself and Mason ready to go before we leave the house it never seems to be enough time. Running late is our new MO. That being said I've definitely noticed we've left the house a number of times without essential things for the baby. Hence the reason I made it this new parent checklist. You won't want to leave the house without these things so make ... Read more...
My Experience with Breast-feeding so far
First off breast-feeding is hard! Everyone I know who's breast-fed has said how hard it is, so I wasn't expecting it to be a walk in the park. But breast-feeding a baby that arrived three weeks early was not only hard but often very frustrating. From the get go Mason would not latch on to my nipple. The nurses in the hospital tried to help but he would just get super frustrated and start to cry. His whole body would turn red from frustration. So they introduced me to the nipple shield. Ever since we've been breast-feeding with ... Read more...

Bell Sleeve Maternity Dress
We had our first major family outing this past weekend with Mason to Leal Estate Vineyards where Justin and I got married. It was our four year wedding anniversary last week and so I thought it would be fun for us to take the baby to Leal to celebrate. We didn't get out of the house until after noon which was way later than I had originally anticipated but that's life with a newborn! I purchased this bell sleeve maternity dress when I was pregnant for my baby shower because I knew that the cut of the dress would look nice post baby ... Read more...
