Happy 5th of July! Hope you had a good long weekend. We’ve been on vacation all weekend and are soaking it all up before it’s back to reality. It was our second time leaving town with Crosby and wow, is it hard to pack the car with all the stuff we need. We were sweating and definitely needed a drink once we got to our destination. #FirstTimeParents

Holidays are always the best time to score amazing deals because there are always sales going on. I know summer is just getting started, but lots of retailers already have summer stuff marked down to make way for fall #toosoon.

The 4th of July is just one week from today! I always feel like after it passes the rest of the summer goes super fast and before you know it it’s Labor Day. Nevertheless, I always love dressing for this holiday. I showed a red, white and blue look yesterday but I wanted to share more recent looks that could easily be recreated for the holiday.

1. In labor
2. With a newborn
3. Still pregnant – the most likely scenario here

I’ve been all about the color pink lately… with a baby girl due soon and Valentine’s Day on the horizon I just can’t help it! Valentine’s Day is such a fun little day. Even if you don’t celebrate it in a romantic way, it’s still nice to buy a little something for yourself or a friend. Years ago I went to a fun anti-Valentine’s Day party at a bar in LA with a group of girlfriends and it was honestly one of my favorite memories of the holiday. That and back in elementary school when we’d get dressed up, pass out Valentine’s and have parties in our classrooms.

Now that I’m old and married I wanted to share a fun little gift guide I put together.

I also wanted to share some gift ideas for the guys…

This mug is the funniest, I might have to get it for Jeff. Also love this red backpack and a fitbit is always a great gift.

And of course, I can’t forget the babies. Here are my favorites…

Hope you’re having a great week – thanks for stopping by!
