BBQs and fireworks and brewskies, oh my! The Fourth of July is just a few short days away, but it's not too late to pick up some red, white and blue goodies for the weekend. Here are my star-spangled faves- the fringe sandals have been my summer staple since last year.

I don't know about you, but shopping for my hubby can be hard. After nearly four years of marriage, we've covered most of the typical gifts to give a significant other- watch, cufflinks, lacrosse gear- check, check, check. OK, lacrosse gear may not be that typical, but nonetheless its already been crossed right off that list.

Happy Friday, folks. It's been a busy week over here- between birthday celebrations, helping my mama get settled in her lovely new home, and  afternoons spent out doors with our girl. And while MM spends these hot June days in her cutie-patootie bikinis, this mama lives for the perfect summer dress. I scoured the internet to find my top nine for ya'll

Over the weekend we celebrated our girl's second birthday. And I just can't stop asking myself: but really, where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday we were assembling layers of her smash cake, wondering how our newborn babe had grown up so fast. And it just doesn't slow down.

It's been a scorcher here in New England. The past few days reaching close to a humid 100 degrees. And as much as this mama wants to stay indoors with the AC cranked, cozied up with a comfy blanket, my MM has different plans. Our chickadee, who recently turned two over the weekend, lives for being outdoors. And it breaks my heart to keep her all cooped up inside.

Throughout my fertility journey I enjoyed a rollercoaster of feelings and emotions, many of which were new to me entirely. And as a result, it momentarily changed me- the very essence of who I was at times; inevitably shifting the relationships I had with those around me. Particularly when it came to my more fertile counterparts.

And just like that- we enter the sixth month of the year. Before we know it, 2017 will be half way over. It's crazy how time flies as an adult- I guess raising tiny humans will do that to you.  

This May was bitter sweet, for sure. We had beautiful days; and we had gloomy ones. We had perfect beach mornings;  and afternoon hailstorms. We celebrated Memorial Day Weekend with family and friends at our local Greenwich Town Party and a perfect lobster boil at our home; but not before we had to tearfully say goodbye to our four-legged fur baby, Henry.
