It’s been a few months since I did a postpartum update! When I stopped going to Pure Barre, I stopped working out altogether and I felt like there wasn’t a lot to report on. I’ve had a few people ask about my goals, though, in the recent weeks. On my Instagram I’ve mentioned I started […]
How to Transition Your Baby From Their Swaddle
A few months ago, I posted on my Instagram asking for help transitioning Bastian from his swaddle. He loved being swaddled. He had a really strong startle reflex until he was about 5 months old. So swaddling him was really the only way to get him to stay asleep. As he grew out of that, he […]

Master Bedroom Update – Cozy Bedding From Shopko
I’m a sucker for a good deal. You know those people that buy ten packs of toilet paper because “it was on sale”? That’s me. I get blinded by good deals! I usually have restraint, but there are a few things I can’t pass up. One of those is bedding. Bedding is sooo expensive. So […]
In Home Photography Session
I don’t think I’ve ever regretted investing in getting photos done. For our wedding, the largest part of our budget was the wedding photographer. We had three maternity sessions(which may have been excessive, but I don’t regret it haha). An amazing friend of mine came and did Bastian’s birth story. And we had Bastian’s newborns […]
Sarah’s Rainbow Baby “Sprinkle”
When I was in middle school and high school, I remember aspiring to be an event planner when I grew up. Or as I called it, a “party planner”. For me, there’s just something about the organization and planning leading up to a big event that’s thrilling. And then when the party arrives and it’s […]

You all know that I am all about wearing what’s comfy. Sure, I love something that’s stylish but if it’s not comfy the chances of me wearing it a full day? Almost none. Comfort is just more important to me. Which is why I’m such a big advocate of wearing athleisure for moms. I’ve been […]
