Living Room Reveal PLUS 2018 Christmas Decor


I am driving the struggle bus this morning, so stay with me here - this one is going to be short and sweet! Then it's off to bed with a cold rag on my head until I figure out what it is that Annie B is doing that is making me so sick! I thought nausea was supposed to be a third trimester thing??

What's In My Hospital Bag



I love crowdsourcing information from social media, especially nowadays. Any new mom knows that unsolicited advice is not really welcome here. But Lord knows, if we ask for it, you better give us the truth. The intimate details. The nitty gritty.

Traveling In The Third Trimester - What Worked, What Didn't.



I'm not an expert or a doctor, but I did a great deal of research before flying from North Carolina to Texas at 31 weeks pregnant. For most women, unless you have complications like preeclampsia, there isn't a reason why you couldn't fly before 35 weeks. In fact, some doctors will clear you to fly even later.  After this experience, I wouldn't want to fly any later - not because anything bad happened to me, but because airports are a pretty big source of stress, no matter who you are.

How did this happen so fast? This wedding really snuck up on me. So did Thanksgiving (I have about 24 hours after I get back to get my guest room ready for guests, do all the holiday grocery shopping, decorate, and get to cooking.) But today was my last wellness check pre-travel at the OB and come tomorrow, I will be wedding bound. After this, you'll be hard pressed to convince me to leave my house.

Holiday Gift Guide: 4 Amazon Handbags for Mom


I've been dying to get my mom a new purse for Christmas for a ton of reasons. The one she's been carrying around is starting to look a little worn around the edges. And she's always complaining that her purse is too big. I know the feels - when you have a big bag, it's tempting to fill it up with as much as possible. 

What I Do Every Day.



I get asked the same question a lot - what do you do? And it's kind of a tricky one to answer. I know it as being a content creator. I help businesses create digital content to promote their products and services. But on any given day, that looks different. And I work for myself... so the title isn't really enough to suit the description.

I'm just trying to slow things down and savor this season, and maybe that means decorating a whole month early for Christmas. That's my prerogative.



Recapping Annie B's Shower











I probably should've taken more pictures before the party got started so I wouldn't have cucumber sandwich crumbs on my shirt, but what are you going to do.

Christmas Gift Guide #1: Cozies for Him

BTW, we've been married for 11 months today! So, this also counts as anniversary gift brainstorming. 

Why is shopping for guys so hard? I swear, I rack up a list of "needs" for Tanner in my head, things that he's said he could use in passing, and then come Christmastime, they've all left my brain.
