The first week of the new year always leaves me feeling conflicted. In some ways I'm ready for the fresh start, excited to get back to work, and am relaxed after so much time off. But on the other hand, I get sad the holidays are over, that my parents have returned home (after staying with us for a week and a half), and that I can't keep approaching each meal as though it's one big celebration. But I've been trying to look for the little things that get me feeling excited for this slightly awkward time of year: Sloan's 3rd birthday that's a month away, some of my favorite tv (The Bachelor, awards season, and the winter Olympics!), and an international girls trip in March. Here's to making it through our first week of the year and to really great things to come in 2018! x

We finally bit the bullet and are taking our first trip with Sloan this weekend. We’ve been so apprehensive to travel with her since she’s such a great sleeper and we didn’t want to mess with her routine, but we’re heading up to Northern California to see my parents and I ...read more

2017 was one of my most rewarding, challenging, happy years to date—G and I celebrated ten years together, Sloan started school, we doubled our team and moved into a beautiful new space, and launched the Shop (!). While I've always been a huge believer in taking a break over the ...read more
