Personal Touches with Caseapp
After my MM was born, my sister gifted me a beautiful iPhone case covered in photos of my little babe. It was one of my most prized possessions, and a great way to quickly show friends and acquaintances some of my favorite pics of my girl.
Pops of Color
This past weekend I was able to sneak away for a few hours for some much needed mommy-time. My husband happily took our little to watch our local high school's lacrosse team play, while I took care of a few overdue errands: a manicure, pedicure and spin class followed by a trip to our newly-opened Macy's Backstage.
Friday Faves: MM's Room
TGIF- ammiright?
It's been an exhausting week with this girl of ours. I thought days filled with outdoor activities would tire her out a bit... but not so much. Does anyone else have a toddler that goes nonstop all day long? I guess in the long run, its a good thing. And in the meantime, there's always a much-deserved glass of rosé al fresco as the sun goes down. But I digress.
My Beach Mate
Happy almost-weekend, friends!
Does anyone else feel like it suddenly transformed into summer overnight? After months of hoping and wishing for a little sunshine to come our way, it finally arrived here in Connecticut. And boy, it was worth it. MM and I didn't miss a beat, and went right back into our summer routine: early mornings spent as the first ones at the beach, with just enough time to soak it all in before it gets way too hot.

Jamaican Vacation
If you follow along on Instagram, then you know we just wrapped up a sunny five-day trip to beautiful Jamaica.
Full disclosure: we were total vacation-crashers. My younger sister, P, had planned on this trip for some time- a tropical getaway to watch one of her dearest childhood friends tie the knot.
At Home With Ring
Being a stay-at-home mom has its benefits, for sure. I can stay in my PJ's as long as I want. Athleisure-wear is totally acceptable work attire. I can sneak in some DVR'd Bravo during naptime. And, best of all, I get to spend the whole day with my favorite little human.
Mother's Day Gift Guide
Mother's Day is just a few days away, and I can't believe it will be the second one I will celebrate as Madeline's mom. This year will be especially happy, as we will be celebrating with my mama in tow- three generations of ladies. Last year I was so overwhelmed with new feelings of motherhood, that all I really wanted to do was hold my little one for Mother's Day.
In My Bag: Tropical Vacation Essentials
It's officially May; and yet the weather here in New England has remained somewhat gloomy and just a touch chilly. I've been in full wanderlust mode over here- daydreaming of an island vacation in the tropics So the chance at a quick beach getaway with the family couldn't have come at a better time.
Mother's Day Giveaway
I can't believe it's that time of year again. Mother's Day is just around the corner. Meaning another year has flown by, and my Madeline Mae will be two before I know it. It's crazy how quickly the time can pass when you're raising tiny humans.
So in honor of my second year in this tribe called motherhood I decided to bring you a fun Mother's Day Giveaway.
