Great NEWS!!!

Brooke is a BIG SISTER!!!

 

We are incredibly excited to announce that we are expecting Clarke Little #2 in March of 2017. If this baby is anything like it’s sister, it may even be February! I am currently 8 weeks pregnant and so far, everything has been even smoother than the first time (knock on wood). The only symptoms I really have so far are hunger and fatigue. And, by hunger, I mean I want to eat everything, all the time. I am having cravings like crazy and just want to eat all the food. The struggle is real. Plus, chasing after a 16 month old is tiring enough without even being pregnant. All of my lab work and ultrasounds have looked good so far, so we decided to share the news with everyone a little earlier than normal. Plus, it’s way harder to keep a secret this time. We just can’t wait to be a family of four! I will be doing bumpdates with this baby as well on Fridays (most likely starting at 12 weeks). Also, I will be sharing how we found out next week, so check back to hear our story!

    Oh my God, CONGRATS!!! This is so exciting! Before I found out I was pregnant, it seemed like everyone was pregnant and then I got pregnant and now it seems like tons more people are pregnant again. So many babies and so much happiness.

  • Save or splurge? 👀

I finally compared the viral Amazon shorts to my Vuori favorites... and here’s my take. 💕

The Amazon pair is a great budget-friendly option (just make sure to size up!), but when it comes to comfort, Vuori still takes the win for me.

If you’ve been debating between the two, this side-by-side comparison should make the decision a whole lot easier.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links! 🎀 And tell me... are you team save or team splurge? 👇🏼

  • Okay Target... you really got me with these ❤️✨

I found 4 maxi dresses that are cute and easy to throw on. You’ll keep reaching for these all summer. Great for running errands, heading to brunch, vacation, or just trying to look put together without thinking too hard. 😂

Now help me decide... which one’s your favorite? 1, 2, 3, or 4?👇🏼
