Forever 21 has been my favorite place to buy clothes during both of my pregnancies. Whenever I’m in a rut I go there and always find plenty of non-maternity options that work on my big old bump. Their stretchy dresses are everything. I popped in last week and came out with a bunch of new things I wanted to share. The best part is they work both with and without a baby bump!

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.

Happy Monday! After today there are only 4 more Monday’s in 2018. How insane is that?! A couple weeks ago I noticed the trees in our neighborhood dropping leaves like crazy. And obviously this is something to get excited about since we live in Orange County and aren’t that used to seeing. Crosby and I put on our coziest sweaters and headed out to play in the leaves. My pink cowl neck sweater from BB Dakota is under $100 and also comes in black. It’s so soft and kind of feels like wearing a bathrobe… not mad at that.
on me: sunglasses, sweater c/o, jeans, booties
on Crosby: sweatshirt, leggings, shoes c/o

Ever since we announced our pregnancy I’ve gotten a lot of questions about if we know the gender. I mentioned in this post, but we did a blood test back in September and actually found out then. I did a poll on IG stories the other day asking what you thought we were having and the results came back an even split. Exactly the same number of votes for a girl and same for a boy. What are the odds?! We plan to spill the beans soon… but first I thought it would be fun to test out some gender predicting old wives tales.
