The Girls Shared Room


I'm so excited to finally share photos and details of the girls shared room!  The girls have been asking to share a room for several months and we kept saying no because we were so afraid they wouldn't sleep well together!  Plus it just seemed silly to put them in the same room when we have enough rooms for each of the kids.  To our surprise, they've done really well and are loving sharing a space.  When I rock Briar to sleep at night I can hear them chatting before they fall asleep and it's sooo cute :).

We decided to move Sloan into Phayre's room (you can see her room before, here!),  I love the pink floral wallpaper so much!  The room isn't super big, but the girls keep their toys downstairs in the playroom so they don't really need a huge bedroom.  Right now Sloan's old room still looks like her room and when she occasionally needs a nap she'll nap in there, but I think eventually I'll make that into a guest room slash office (I would love to have an office again!!).  Scroll to the very bottom for sources!  If I miss anything, let me know in a comment below!

Without further ado, the girls shared room!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Picks 2018

I didn't plan on doing a post for the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, but after shopping the sale last night there were too many good deals not to share!  I got myself and Eric a few things, but mostly bought the girls some new school clothes!  I wasn't super impressed with the baby boy stuff, but I don't buy many of Briar's clothes at Nordstrom anyways.  You can only shop the sale right now if you have a Nordstrom card.  If you don't have a Nordstrom card, I highly recommend it (there are so many perks!!).  The sale opens to everyone else on July 19th!

My lists are pretty short and sweet, but it's all really good stuff!  A few favorites for the girls are this underwear (I buy a few sets every year during the sale), this sweater, these pajamas, and this jacket!

A few favorites for myself are these jeans, these yoga pants, this long sleeve tee (I ordered it in three colors!), this sweater, and these running shoes!

If you're in the market for a Dockatot, now is the time to snag one!!

Mom Style: Spring and Summer


A few months ago, I did a "Mama style" post and I got a lot of great feedback!  I thought I'd do a new one as we enter a new season.  Summmmmmmmer is finally here!!!  Well almost.  Only one more week and then it will officially be summer!  I LOVE summertime.  Gimme all the sunshine, champagne, and fun stuff outside.  Oh and comfortable flowy dresses.

The last time I posted, I had about 30 pounds of baby weight to lose.  I've lost about half of that, only 16 pounds to go!  The baby weight isn't exactly falling off the third time around ;), but I'm actually feeling ok about it!  I'll get there eventually, when I have more time to make myself a priority.  Until then, I need to get some summer clothes that fit me!  I thought I'd share my finds below.  Enjoy and happy shopping!

My Favorites/Must Haves:
The perfect formal summer dress (perfect for a wedding or special event!)
You need this tank top (I grabbed it in white, gray, highland green, and candy pink!).
Can't stop wearing this top, so cute with skinny jeans.
My favorite ever skinny jeans (they're super stretchy, size down a size or two).
I'm only 5'3" so I wasn't sure if I could pull off culottes, but these ones are SO good!!
I live in saltwater sandals all summer long, they're so comfortable and go with everything.

GOUMIKIDS X HELLO BABY BROWN


You guyyyyyyys!!! My collection with goumikids is finally here!!!

I am so excited about this collection, it really is near and dear to my heart.

When Eric and I started trying for a baby, we were shocked when it didn't happen right away.  We were young and married and wanted a baby!!  It took us a few years and we were definitely getting anxious.  When we finally got pregnant with Sloan, my mother in law bought me a little celebratory gift from a baby boutique right by her work.  She bought me a pair of goumikids scratch mittens and boy did those come in handy!  I have used those little mitts with all three of my kids!  As most of you know, my mother in law passed away very unexpectedly last year.  Those little gray and cream mitts are so special to me and make me think of her every time I look at them.

Goumikids is a Portland based company, run by moms!  A few of my friends actually work for goumikids and connected me with the owner, Lili.  Upon meeting her, we quickly realized that we needed to design a Hello Baby Brown collection!  That was months ago and to finally see my prints on the goumikids products feels amazing!


The gender neutral charcoal stripe print is perfect for boys and girls!  I love how simple and classic it is.  The coordinating floral is the sweetest print and makes me really wish I had twins so that I could use both prints at the same time!  Each piece is made from the absolute softest fabric, you'll fall in love as soon as you feel it.  Their mitts and boots are tiny, but mighty-my absolute favorite goumikids products.  Briar lives in their jamms, they're so incredibly cozy.  Ah I'm so excited!  I literally cannot wait to see these prints on your babes!!!

Goumikids also gives back!  10% of their profits go to victims of human trafficking.

I hope you love these prints as much as I do!  You can shop the entire collection here!
