Another year older! As I close out my twenties, I can definitely feel a sense of change. For the last five years, Eric and I have thrown big themed bashes for our birthdays. This year, we're opting for a quiet dinner for two and I'll be celebrating with all my friends at my baby shower this…

Mondayyyy. I just got back from a mini vacay this weekend, and I'll admit I'm not fully ready to take on the week. What do you guys do to get back into the swing of things after being away? 1. As I mentioned, we just returned from our babymoon in Charleston, SC this weekend! Full post on ou…

Hey folks! Not sure about you, but after a few spurts of nice weather in the last few days and a weekend of excitement, I'm super ready to take on this week! I am just returning from a few days in Chapel Hill, where I got to spend some working with my team and visitng with good friends …

It's finally here - the last three months of pregnancy! I know I complained a lot in my last recap post about it going slowly, but this trimester really did seem to just draggg on. Probably because you automatically miss 5-6 weeks in the first trimester before you know you're pregnant, and y…

Happy Valentine's Day! I talk a lot on here about my travels to other places, but not much about my home city. That is all about to change! I figure what better post to share on lover's day than a list of our favorite date spots in Charlotte. Eric and I have spent a majority of our relation…

Happy Monday Folks! This week kicks off a super busy month for me, which after what feels like months of hibernation, I'm completely looking forward to! 1. Eric and I took our hospital tour yesterday in prep for baby! We accidentally parked about a mile away, and went to the wrong building …

If you all remember, I was pretty gung-ho about becoming zero-waste in 2016, and even took several steps in making my kitchen get close to zero-waste. The last year however, hasn’t been as smooth. Between home renovations and pregnancy, it’s been a lot of styrofoam, giant boxes,…

Happy Monday! Sorry for the delay on this post, Super Bowl kept me up late! Our neighbors are huge Eagles fans, so it was super fun to watch with them and experience the win. I also read somewhere that Americans consume about 2,400 calories during the Super Bowl. Pretty sure I accomplished t…

It's here! The final installment of Eric and I's Scandinavia trip at the end of 2016. Might I also mention these seem to be the best city names? haha. After traveling to Copenhagen, Visby, and Stockholm, we took a quick daytrip to Sigtuna and Uppsala to see some castles and cathedrals. Sinc…

Real talk ya'll: this month has been rough. While pregnancy has brought about a lot of great things, it's also brought about a TON of changes to my schedule that I just wasn't ready for. In an effort to reduce my stress and focus on me these last few months, I cut out all of my freelanc…
