This post is sponsored by T.J.Maxx. All opinions expressed are my own. Shopping for the kids is easy and hard at the same time. On the one hand, you can literally get them just about anything at this age and they’ll be happy. On the other hand, I don’t want to get them just anything. I want to get them things that are thoughtful and serve a purpose. If you’ve ever gone to the store and stared down the aisle completely overwhelmed by choices, this toddler Christmas gift list is for you. ... View the Post

Hey, friends! I'm FINALLY sharing all of the details of Mila's flamingo first birthday party! We celebrated her first birthday this August and I settled on a girly and summery flamingo theme!

Baby Update: 8 Months Old
Mila turned 8 months old this week--time is flying! Cliché sounding? Maybe. But it does seem to be going a heck of a lot faster this time around. With my first, I felt like the first year was so long, perhaps because every single noise and action was noticeable. Not to say we aren't constantly celebrating Mila's milestones, they just seem to be happening so much faster! Anyway, I just thought I'd share a little 8-month update on our baby girl. I haven't been the best about sharing monthly ... View the Post
