The past week I spent my days taking care of not 1, but 4 little youngins! Yes, that's our 3rd time within the year of family-sitting :) It's always fun seeing how life would be with more kids and honestly it is so much work but we try to make it as fun and normal for the kids as we can. Tuesday, little Miss L made two 100's on her tests so we were talked into heading out for ice cream to celebrate. The next day she brought home 3! I wasn't ready to load up all 6 of us for an outing ...again but I did pull out an easy cake box cookie recipe for a colorful treat to help her still feel special and accomplished. Test out this fun treat that gave the kids all sorts of heart eyes! [amd-yrecipe-recipe:9] … [Read more...]

It’s been a long time coming and I am so happy that it is finally complete. I will be posting the full master bedroom reveal later but for now here is a little bit of my thought process. When we made the choice to stay in our smaller starter home after graduate school, we knew that some big projects were in order to make our house feel like a home. One of those was to utilize all the space in our closet and make our bedroom feel more relaxing and inviting. Here are 5 ways that helped me personalize our dream space. Color palate. It’s no … [Read more...]
Walk In My Shoes
Photography: J Petite Photography Before I ever had Ryker, I followed Freshly Picked on Instagram because of the darling kiddo posts and baby fashion. I knew I wanted some of these cute shoes for my son or daughter one day and that was that. I love shoes and so my kid would obviously have the cutest shoes around. Ry loves playing in my shoes because they have bright colors, cool designs or sparkles. It got my mind turning about the quote "to walk in their shoes" I have all of Ryker's FP Moccs in a cute little container that he can point to and say shoes. How funny it would be if we could walk in our child's shoes - metaphorically speaking of course. How would we see our day; how would we see ourselves as parents. So one day I put it to … [Read more...]
Master Closet Reveal
Eeeekk! I can't contain my excitement that our closet is finally done! We have been in our house a full 5 years now and although it is our starter house I always had big plans to make it our home. I absolutely love organizing and spreading a little love throughout each room. For me having a space that reflects our style and is easy to manage makes a world of difference. When I see the before pictures I have to remember it wasn't always that messy. We snapped those pictures to document the space but it was usually clean just cluttered and everything fit so tight. We had a lot of space that we couldn't use because of the design and Ryker would always pull all my shoes off the door hang. When starting this project we also did the Kon … [Read more...]
Workout Wednesday: My Monthly Mantra
Photography: J Petite Photography Top: Onzie c/o | Leggings: Onzie c/o Welcoming August with open arms and taking a big deep breath. I've recently picked back up practicing yoga in the mornings before I get the babe up. It feels so nice to stretch and focus. I am kind of particular about my choice of yoga pants but these Onzie leggings have been on repeat the past few weeks because they are unbelievably comfy and supportive. Clearing my mind and starting the day with a good intention and positive vibe has made a world of difference for me the past few days. So much has been on my mind lately and I have noticed that I have been waking up exhausted - burning the candle at both ends. (p.s. our a/c died in the middle of summer but y'all, … [Read more...]
