First of all, thank you all so so much for the congratulations and sweet words about our announcement. Every one of the comments on here and on social media just made my heart happy. Thank you for celebrating with us! And because I didn't want you to go thinking that our life is picture perfect... Here's what the other 1,673 photos I snapped looked like. Oh my goodness, it was a HOT (windy) mess!!!! Probably a bit what life with 3 kids is going to be like...right?!? And then Nash walked off ...
I’ve Been Keeping a Secret…
A pretty BIG secret... Arden and Nash are getting a baby SISTER! Almost 14 weeks into this and I still can't believe I'm writing those words. This baby is such a miracle and I can't wait to share the whole story with you tomorrow. As long as I can stay awake long enough to finish the post, that is ;) XOXO, Vanessa ...
A Princess and a Party
Kids birthday parties are a lot of work. Am I right? While I love to plan a good themed party, life is busy and I also love things that are really easy ;) And that's exactly why we had Arden's 4th birthday party at a kid's salon.

But most importantly, the birthday girl and her guests had the best time ever! Each little girl wore their favorite princess dress and came ...
Friday Faves
Friday, already?! I'll take it! It's been a whirlwind of a week, with a busy weekend coming up...but who can complain when you're busy with fun things?? Just popped in to share some of my favorite things this week... ONE. This kid. He's SO wild and ornery one minute...and then the biggest snuggly sweetheart the next. I wish I could've bottled up this moment! TWO. Of course I would buy two of these at a local boutique (no returns--wahhh!) right before this sale happened! Nordstrom is price ...
Groupon Goods
Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Groupon, however, all opinions are my own. #ad #Groupon I remember the first time I was introduced to really nice towels. I mean, is that weird? It's not like I grew up with rags or anything, but when I stayed at a super ritzy hotel for my first job, I almost fell in love with the oversized goodness that were the bath towels. I immediately googled "hotel collection bath towels"...problem was I was fresh out of college (read: poor)--and they weren't exactly ...
Arden Is Four
You guys, I have a 4 year old. How WILD is that?!?! The last couple of days my Timehop and Facebook memories have been all about Arden...and I'd be lying if I said it didn't make me a little teary-eyed realizing how quickly these four years have gone by. But at the same time, I'm so thrilled to see Arden grow and thrive and become the amazing little person that she is. Here are a few of the things that she loves the most right now... I left family off because I thought it was kind of a ...
