let’s make my front porch cute! we know i’m let’s make my front porch cute! 

we know i’m obsessed with everything new england, so obviously i had to new england it up here! what is more new england than rocking chairs and mumms?? literally nothing. i got these from @bedbathandbeyond and they’re weatherproof and under $300 for the pair! they also come in cute colors but i chickened out because of the blue house?!

i am so so happy with how it turned out, we spend most of our time in the backyard but to be able to sit here and wave off arlo every morning (while the actual school bus picks him up directly from our driveway because we live in a small town like a hallmark movie) brings me real joy!
raise your hand if “wee sing” is also still fo raise your hand if “wee sing” is also still forever engrained into your brain 👋 i showed the kids this year and now they love it just as much, as soon as i gave izzy her red dress she asked if she could get on the table and be sally hahah 

decided this year we’d postpone a party and do a real one on her half birthday when she has more friends (we’ll see if i end up bothering!)

instead we took her to nyc for the day and just threw her this sweet little birthday at home 🎈

if you want the links for the party supplies, just comment WANT and i’ll send em straight to your dms!

IZZY IS 3!!! to know her is to love her, cliche bu IZZY IS 3!!! to know her is to love her, cliche but it’s true! she is just the spunkiest and sweetest girl with the biggest smile and a heart of gold and ofc the best dance moves. she’s just made of actual sunshine 🥹 

it seems like just yesterday i was at the darkest point of my life, so sad and so desperate for a baby, and i still can’t believe she’s real. (shoutout to @mosiebaby)

happy birthday to our rainbow babe who is pretty much a literal rainbow! 🌈❤️

I’M MAKING IT CUTE — the living room is the mo I’M MAKING IT CUTE — the living room is the most beautiful and least used room in our new house and before we furnish it i wanted to paint the built-in fireplace and bench, but ofc i can’t decide what color. 

k so please advise and this time i will do my best to listen!!!! 

and stay tuned for our new sectional! and new so much more!!! it’s going to be soooo cute at some point 

paint colors are both @sherwinwilliams, the one i painted is “sea salt” and the darker green is “hazel gaze”

september was amazing, the kids started school fin september was amazing, the kids started school finally, and we got a glimpse of what a normal life here will look like. it’s not at all normal yet but the glimpse looked good!

gigis first visit, our 11 year anniversary, the debut of falling leaves, and watching arlo the mini fisherman freaking thrive more than any of us here 🥹
