Happy Valentine's Day from the cutest little besties. Crosby gets more obsessed with Mackie every day so it was only fitting to do a little love day shoot with the two of them. I remember last Valentine's Day so clearly and can't believe it's already been a year. Crosby was only 11 months old and we went shopping and mailed out her Bday invitations. This year we made Valentines and are going out to breakfast for heart shaped bagels. So crazy that next year I'll have another little Valentine.
Over the weekend I was feeling so blah and uninspired with the current rotation of things that fit me. I decided to shop my closet, if you will, and put together this look with pieces that are all a couple of years old. Sometimes I think I have these pregnancy wardrobe delusions where I put something on thinking it will still fit the way it did a few months/weeks/days ago and then get frustrated when that's not the case. So I went back to some old faithfuls that worked my first pregnancy and was happy and comfortable all day.

I've been getting a lot of questions about baby shower dress inspiration and thought it would make for a fun blog post. Early on in my pregnancy I decided I wasn't having a shower this time around. I was pregnant with Crosby exactly two years ago and was blessed with two beautiful showers for her. We have a lot we can reuse on baby boy and I'm often sent new products to try out. There's really no need for another shower.
It's no secret I love any reason to match with Crosby, but Valentine's Day makes it even more fun! We are loving red right now... specifically our new red dresses. I mentioned I got Crosby this one last week and I picked up this red ribbed mini for me as well. Our weather was so perfect over the weekend we couldn't wait to break them out to celebrate a little early.
Now that Christmas is less than one week away, it means New Years Eve is right behind. I thought I'd share a fun and festive look for the big night. This sparkly maxi dress gives me some disco ball vibes, which I highlighted even more with my metallic silver leather jacket. But since I'm six months pregnant I dressed it down on the bottom with my trusty vans high-tops. Kind of a mullet of looks - glam on top, casual on the bottom.
Last week I posted a photo of Crosby and I in matching pj's on instagram and this week we're back with more. These cute pajamas are from PJ Salvage and you know I love the mommy and me matching prints. I sized up to a 2T on Crosby's jammies and got a cute little one piece matching romper for baby boy. They're a little big on her this year but hopefully they'll both fit into them next year and we can match again.
