Making Time for Yourself as a Mom

Making Time for Yourself as a Mom

Making Time For Yourself as a Mom The word “selfish” has been in my vocabulary a lot since becoming a mom, and after a few conversations with other moms, I realized I’m not alone. For a long time, since having Oliver, anything I would do for myself that didn’t benefit him, my marriage or work, … Continue reading “Making Time for Yourself as a Mom”

Makeup and Vanity Organization

I used to be such a makeup and skincare hoarder. Since we’ve been home quarantining I have been organizing every room in our home, just like everyone else, purging what I don’t need/use anymore and trying to keep everything super neat and tidy, so I wanted to share with you how I organize my makeup … Continue reading “Makeup and Vanity Organization”

Oliver’s 8 + 9 Month Update!

The days are flying by and now that we’ve been in quarantine for more than a month, it really feels like the days are gone in the blink of an eye. I feel like as Oliver gets older these monthly updates are really going to get more spread out, because I can’t keep track of … Continue reading “Oliver’s 8 + 9 Month Update!”

Oliver’s Bedtime Routine at 7 months Old

7 Month Old Bedtime Routine As I sat down to write this post I couldn’t believe how many small changes we’ve made to Oliver’s bedtime routine in just 7 months, yet how nothing huge had changed since we brought him home from the hospital. Although it may have been tough creating a routine with a … Continue reading “Oliver’s Bedtime Routine at 7 months Old”

Oliver’s 6 + 7 Month Update!

On Christmas Day Oliver turned six months old and Rob and I both felt a little sad. How has it been half a year with our boy? It sure doesn’t feel like it. Half a year sounds like a long time somehow, and the days have just been flying by. After we got emotional about … Continue reading “Oliver’s 6 + 7 Month Update!”

Easy Makeup Routine for Everyday

Easy Makeup Routine for Everyday

Since having Oliver I have definitely cut back on my morning routine. Thankfully he sleeps pretty well and I have a good chunk of time during his morning nap to get things done, but I’ve noticed a shift in my everyday makeup routine. I have found myself leaning towards a more simple and natural look … Continue reading “Easy Makeup Routine for Everyday”

Gratitude: what a huge predictor of our mood each day. I’ve been talking about this with Ollie a lot lately, how to practice gratitude and how powerful it is. When I physically say out loud what I’m grateful for each morning, before my feet even touch the ground: our family, our health, the beautiful desert we get to live in that surrounds us... it can make the things that may be weighing on our hearts feel a bit less daunting. The mind is so powerful. 💫

Noticing moments that spark joy, those small in between glimmers amongst the hustle that fuel our souls. It’s easy to get sucked in and hyper-focused on what’s next, but when we can see the good it’s often the simplest moments that mean the most. 🧡

This doesn’t mean problems go away or everything is perfect but perspective can lay such a strong foundation. ✨

Morning! ☀️ Time to open the shades and let the sunshine in. Here’s a peek at our little nook off the kitchen/coffee area. I find myself in here so much in the mornings. It’s such a cozy spot to curl up with coffee and a book while a record spins. With fall around the corner I’m looking forward to getting that fireplace going too. 🙌
.
The scale of the room and mix of materials really adds to the coziness of the space. We continued @theshadestore automatic roller shades in here as well. I tried so many samples with different colors and materials, here was our winning combo 👇🏼 Save for your next home window project…

Shade Material: Harper
Color: Ivory (perfect match to our creamy walls which is Dunn Edwards “Birch White”)
Reverse Roll (comes forward off the roll)
Hardware Mount: Black

Where’s your favorite spot to cozy up in your home?

So much goes into making a house a home. 💫 You all have been on this journey with us, celebrating each milestone: finding this property and breaking ground, designing and selecting home finishes, unpacking and decorating, and now: getting our space ready for gatherings with friends and family. Well it took way longer than we anticipated but our outdoor kitchen and dining area is complete and it was just in time to host some of our favorite people this past weekend!
.
Check out the full space over on the blog with @thehomedepot, for all the photos and links. Creating a space to enjoy with those we love has always been at the forefront of this house design and that definitely includes the outdoor space as well. Cannot wait to fire up some pizzas in the @gozney oven and gather around this table. Outdoor living was such a huge part of why we were attracted to this place…🌵🙌💫why we wanted to create a home here, and #homedepot helped us bring it all to life. #sponsored #myhomedepot

Something about wearing a pretty dress that just changes your mood. 🙌I remember a few years back when everything was changing and yet the world felt like it was at a stand still, we were all home trying to make sense of things, getting dressed each morning and feeling good helped me show up for my family and keep some sense of normalcy at home. 
.
I’ve kept that same mindset as time goes on, using the “good dishes”, fancy glasses just for water and wearing the pretty dresses even if it’s just to school drop off and at home. 😆🙌🧡 loving this @christydawn one made from regeneratively grown cotton in the sweetest print. Use my code 15CHRISTINA to save. 💫🌸

I’m a big believer in manifestation and writing down your goals. For me, when i can physically see something written down in front of me, i become more focused…...it gives me something to clearly work towards.💫 here’s to recognizing the good in our everyday and working towards creating more of those little moments. 🧡

TGIF! Dreaming of fall looks: cords, patchwork patterns and of course, boots 🙌💫🤠 @ranchroadboots is having an archive sale with up to 50% off all retiring styles. I’ll share some of my faves in stories. I scooped up these brown ones with a brass toe. So fun!

*wildlife spottings* 👀 #ad Can’t believe it’s officially been 5 months in the new house! We’re slowly making it feel like a home, and it’s really becoming a place we’re excited to spend time together and with friends. We recently installed the all new @Blink Outdoor 4 camera which was super easy - it’s wireless plus the battery life can last up to 2 years.  I can monitor everything from the Blink Home Monitor App, including all our desert visitors…and catch my better half relocating a few hairy ones away from our door and safely back into the desert. 🤗🙈🌵🕷️ #blinkmoments
