A little bit of this...and that

Hello lovely readers!  I hope you are having a fantastic day.   I've gotten some reader requests to talk about fun and unique baby products/gift ideas etc.  That is going to take more than one post :)  However, I did want to highlight one of my absolute favorite companies for little ones called Little Unicorn.   They make amazing blankets, diaper bags and travel items for baby!  I love how soft everything is and the fantastic prints.  Also, if you are in the market for a diaper bag look no further.  There's are vegan, fantastically priced and incredibly stylish! Enjoy! xoxo 1.  Swaddle Blankets Click here! 2.  Diaper Bags Click here! 3.  Security Blankets Click here!

Happy day this and thatters!   I hope you and yours had an awesome weekend.  Ours was filled with family time and crossing items of the baby to do list.  I did find some time to shop at Old Navy and enjoy the awesome 40% off sale.  :)  I buy a lot of Emily's clothes from Old Navy but I snapped up some super cute fall tops for me that I had to share. xoxo 1.  Pintucked Blouse I have to tell you that I'm over wearing maternity clothes!  I know this isn't surprising.  I have bought a few things for fall but honestly haven't gone overboard because I am not exactly sure what my body will be doing.  I loved this blouse because of the fun color but also because I feel like it will be great at hiding anything I need to hide :) Click here! 2.  Striped Top I loved the look of this top!  I think it will be great to throw on with jeans when I'm in a hurry.  It is also super soft and super comfy.......

Happy Day this and thatters!  I hope your week is flying by and you enjoy this edition of what's on my nightstand! xoxo 1.  Lilly Agenda I have to tell you that I haven't carried an agenda/calendar in a very long time.  In the past few years I've just always used my phone to keep myself organized.  However, as life gets busier and things get crazier I've needed a new method for keeping myself and the family organized.   I was thrilled when I saw the Lilly agenda!  I absolutely love it because it is Lilly but it also has absolutely everything I need to keep myself organized. I got the large size and it is perfect! Click here! 2.  Hands Free Mama I LOVE this book!  A sweet mom recommended it to me and I have absolutely fallen in love with it.  It is such a great read about disconnecting from technology and connecting with yourself, your family and those around you!  I have really enjoyed reading it and p...

Happy day this and thatters!  Sorry I've been a bit absent  lately but I've been busy working and preparing for baby and that's left little time for blogging.  I promise I will try and get back on a regular schedule very soon :) xoxo Nordstrom Anniversary Sale How good is the nordstrom anniversary sale?!  I have loved, loved it.  I actually placed my final order last night, ha!  These are the items I couldn't live without.

Enjoy! xoxo 1.  Sole Society Caftan I die for this cover up!  I love the blush and grey colors and how much fun it is.  I also have to confess that I wear it as a top with white skinny jeans, ha!  It's super comfy and I always get tons of compliments.

Happy Monday readers!!!  I got some fb messages after my post on Saturday about dressing your pregnancy bump.  It isn't easy and it is sometimes hard to be stylish but it can be done. I also think it's important to buy pieces you can wear even after you are pregnant and working to get your body back.  Below are some of my go to pieces to dress the bump in style! xoxo 1.  J.Crew Cut-offs J.Crew has dipped their toe in the maternity pond and I am so happy about it.  I really like the cut of their maternity pants and shorts.  I got a J.Crew gift card for my birthday and immediately snapped up the white cut-offs and the minnie pant.   This weekend I scored the denim cut-offs on super sale!  I highly recommend J.Crew pants while prego and I know the minnie pants will be perfect for wearing home from the hospital.   Click here!

Happy Saturday this and thatters!  We are just getting in from the beach so this post is brief but enjoy!  xoxo 1.  Reinventing Your Bathing Suit I have to tell you that trying to find decent maternity bathing suits is nearly impossible.  So far I've been making my non-maternity ones and the one maternity suit I like work.  However, when I read one of my fav blogs (link below) about reinventing your suits I was thrilled.  What a quick and easy way to shake things up!  I tried it today and loved it.   Click here! 2.  Sales, Sales, Sales Have you seen all the amazing sales going on right now?  Nordstrom, Anthro and Tory Burch.  Such great deals happening right now so if you've had your eye on something now is the time to buy!   I got some great stuff that I can wear while pregnant and hopefully after!  Be sure to check out the sales.   Nordstrom I picked up this super cute vest...

Happy Friday this and thatters!  Sorry I've been slack about blogging but I've been a busy bee this week and next week we are at the beach.  I promise I will get back to my regular blogging schedule ASAP.   xoxo Dear Emily, OMG you are growing up so fast!  I love it and it scares me at the same time.  Ha, ha!  I went to lunch with some dear friends this week and held their sweet babies who are about 10 wks old and got emotional remembering that time with you.  There is nothing that I will ever cherish more than those first months with you.  I loved learning how to be a mom and I loved doing that with you! You are getting 5 teeth right now!  I feel awful for you because I know it's uncomfortable.  You are a slow teether and it looks like you've decided to do a lot at once.  I'm trying to make you as comfortable as possible but my heart just breaks for you.   You are talking up a...

Date Night Saturday night we had an amazing date with friends!  The food was delicious and the company was just what the doctor ordered.  I love a great night out on the town! Sunday Funday On Sunday we went to church and Em did amazing with nursery drop off.  It has been a little dicey so I was so relieved and proud of her for being so brave!!   We spent the rest of the day hanging around ...

Happy Weekend this and thatters!!  I was so excited to see the sun today and yesterday.  It's been a rainy week and the sunshine was a welcome relief.  I hope you have a fantastic weekend! xoxo 1.  Rainy Day Activities So do my lovely readers have rainy day suggestions?  I took Em to the library, pet store and even the park in the morning when it wasn't raining but somehow by the end of the day my house looked like this (pic below) every time! I would love to hear from you any fun and exciting indoor activities you might suggest.  Besides the usual coloring, building with blocks etc.  Next week is shaping up to be yet another rainy week and this momma would love new ideas! 2.  Elizabeth Heard Barrettes I was doing some online shopping this week and stumbled across Elizabeth Heard's site and fell in love!  How adorable are these barrettes?!  I literally want them all!  Be sure to check out ...
