my favorite target summer dresses and maternity dresses I found myself across the street from Target this morning. With an hour to kill and only one kiddo, I decided to go to Target to try on summer dresses because my current summer wardrobe is sparse. Usually Ben and Blaire are fighting over my phone in the fitting room, but this trip, Ben was content just hanging out. So…
Now that I don’t have to worry about dressing business casual from 8-5, I’m fully embracing the momiform. Blaire is in afternoon Pre-K, so I typically start my day with breakfast for all of us, then when they’re done and playing, I do the dishes and then respond to emails and messages. I have an alarm set to make sure I get Blaire dressed and ready about 20…
Spending a ton of money on maternity clothes is NOT necessary. There are plenty of places to shop for inexpensive maternity clothes. Luckily, there are now a TON of options for maternity pieces that won’t take all of your money and have lasted me throughout both of my pregnancies. Don’t panic! You can find inexpensive maternity clothes. For me, I try to maximize anything in my pre-pregnancy wardrobe…
For those of you currently rocking a baby bump (not me!) I keep coming across the CUTEST graphics for baby bumps and I just had to document them. So I figured I may as well round up some of the cutest maternity themed graphic tees, right?! These are all super cute and they look so comfy! Some are not actually printed on “maternity” tops, so make sure you read…

We are heading to the Caribbean this spring and I’m on the hunt for some new suits. BUT, unless Orange Theory does some serious work, I’m just not ready to bare my mom tummy (or my side rolls). I have owned quite a few…

Well, we went from 50s to 80s here in the midwest and it’s fine. I’ll take whatever I can get at this point! I just want to pack away the long sleeves and break out all of Blaire’s cute dresses and the water table she got for her birthday back in February. We had a great Mother’s Day. If you follow me on Instagram, then you know we…

I am SO in love with our maternity pictures. We got so, so, so lucky with the weather that day. Who knew we would be blessed with a 70° day, in February,…
Thank you to Carter’s for sponsoring today’s post. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This weekend we had some amazing weather! It was in the 50s, which almost feels like Summer when you’re in Iowa in February and it was just snowing three days ago. Blaire got a tricycle from her great grandparents for Christmas and this weekend was the first time she was able to ride it outside. And she…
Thank you to Motherhood Maternity for sponsoring today’s post! All thoughts and opinions are my own. Dressing a baby bump is seriously my favorite! I feel so much more confident when I’m pregnant… which I guess may be strange considering someone else has taken over my body and it seems like every day I have a new ache or pain. BUT, pregnancy is such beautiful and amazing thing and…
Thank you to Pink Blush Maternity for sponsoring this post! All thoughts and opinions are my own. If I had $1 for every time I heard someone complain about how hard it is to find cute/inexpensive/stylish maternity clothes, I’d have enough money to buy allll of the cute maternity clothes my heart desires. If you’re shopping in-person for maternity clothes, there may not be as large of a selection…
