Big news friends! My husband and I finally closed on our new place and last weekend, we made the move into the new house. I feel like we’re slightly nuts to have bought a new house after just having gone through what turned out to be a very stressful process of selling our last house and making a transcontinental move, but here we are… homeowners again! I love owning a home, but I think all homeowners can agree that with homeownership comes responsibility that you’d sometimes rather not have.

The mid-80 degree weather, constant sunshine, and gorgeous turquoise water was just what we needed, and we spent all of our time soaking it up by snorkeling, biking, reading on the beach, swimming and kayaking. It was glorious! While we were on vacation, we had the chance to do a fun photo shoot to celebrate a certain big thing happening in our lives... ....I'm having a baby! This week marks 15 weeks of pregnancy, and I'm feeling strong & healthy. A few weeks ago we found out that it's a girl! I felt that it was a girl all along and had been referring to the growing tiny human inside of me as 'she' and 'her' from ... [Read More]
