As I am writing this, Wyatt is already considered a toddler. He moved rooms at daycare the week of his birthday. It all happened so fast! How did my baby go from 4 lbs 7 oz to a babbling, crawling, scooting, giggling little human? Here’s what I’ve learned the past year…
Read MoreI am loving lately . . . my new favorite everything bagel in Charleston, a local artist, something that’s helping me fall asleep faster, a robot vacuum, and an Instagram account that really helps me choose less toxic and cleaner options for food and household items.
Read MoreThis week I am loving a summer salad recipe, a motivational podcast, a baby toy and an affordable summer dress that looks expensive!
Read MoreI bought my first Ruggable rug in September, and I wrote a mini review on my Instagram about how I liked it after a couple weeks. Here is a series of updates and reviews after about 8 months. It’s a rollercoaster!
Read MoreThis week I am Loving Lately . . . walks around a charming Mount Pleasant neighborhood, an inflatable hot tub, biker shorts, a restaurant that doesn’t get enough buzz, and a program that is helping my buyers win homes in this very busy real estate market.

Read MoreMy blog needs some more love! I enjoy writing and sharing but life seems to get in the way. In an attempt to connect more with y’all I am starting a bi-weekly “Loving Lately” blog post. It will include literally anything: products, stores, podcasts, quotes, foods, books, restaurants, etc. Anything and everything I am loving in my life lately, so I think everyone who follows me could relate or connect in some way. I hope it helps you get to know me and Charleston a little better.

So I wanted to tackle those, along with generally “cleaning up” the products in our home. This is the update on what products I’m still using and what I’ve changed up.
Read MoreTo be frank, most women hide their pregnancies for the first trimester, so I feel like it’s not talked about a lot. I’m here to talk about it. Also, maybe you’re like me and don’t have a lot of family or close friends with kids so it’s not a world you’ve been very in tune to. That being said, my pregnancy experience so far has come with a lot of surprises!
