I’ve needed a new pair of denim shorts all summer, so I decided it was finally time to bite the bullet and get a pair. But let me just tell you, it wasn’t that simple. I tried on five different pairs in order to find the best fit and I wanted to stay under $100.

Now that we have two kids getting out of the house for long periods of time is more intense. We still do it but whenever we can stay home we’re always more relaxed. This summer we’ve been playing in our backyard as much as possible. I wanted to share my favorite outdoor things that make our backyard fun for a toddler.

Today is the first day of public access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! Fingers crossed that things that have sold back will make their way back into stock… you just never know. If something you want says it’s sold out, keep checking back throughout the sale. Today I want to share my absolute favorites that are included.

The sun is out and it’s finally starting to feel like summer! Just in time for stores to bring out all the fall things. Ha! But in all honestly, our summer is only just beginning and it won’t be anything close to fall until at least Thanksgiving. Crosby and I are taking this opportunity to wear all the cute swimsuits we can… starting with these fun one-pieces we wore Sunday.

How is it already July?! The year is half over and the summer is kind of half over too… although here it feels like summer is just starting! I can’t believe the 4th of July is just two days away. It’s always been my favorite holiday, no surprise since I’m such a big summer lover. I’m looking forward to doing some festive things in the sun on Thursday. I wanted to share some outfit inspiration ahead of the day in case you’re stuck with what to wear. Each of these outfits can easily be worn all summer long.

June is usually pretty gloomy, but it’s been an abnormally long month of gloom around here. I think we’ve only seen the sun a handful of times. We are more than ready for some warmth and sunshine right now, but that didn’t stop us from heading out on a friend’s boat last night.

Happy Monday! It’s the first full week of summer and it’s my birthday… both call for a celebration. Or a spritz. Speaking of… how cute are these mommy and me matching sweaters Crosby and I got from Show Me Your Mumu? They just released a match your mama line that’s beyond adorable. I want everything. 🙂

A couple of months ago Jeff and I were lounging playing with the kids in the backyard and both decided we wanted to make a few changes. Our outdoor dining table had been with us since we lived in our rental house and gotten a lot of use/weather over time. We decided a new table was the perfect place to start.

I love a good romper in the summer. They’re so comfortable! I always look for ones that can be dressed up or down to maximize wearing potential. I snagged this one last week and have already worn it a couple times. It checks all the boxes and also comes in black. I especially love that there are buttons down the whole front. It’s perfect for nursing and can also be worn more like a playsuit with a top underneath.

I’m all about convenience these days… going out with a newborn + a toddler and dealing with getting in and out of the stroller, car seats, carts, etc is a big ordeal. I save that for when I want to get us out of the house, more than when we actually need something. Which brings me to Amazon
