I’m nearing a moment many women reach in their thirties: it’s probably time to start getting Botox or Dysport. However, I am slowly stopping nursing, so I have to wait as it is recommended that you pump and dump milk for four days after treatment and that makes so sense to me at the moment for a multitude of reasons. I’ve been looking for methods to smooth things over (hardy har) until the big day arrives. I found Microneedling Anti-Wrinkle…
I know things got a little heavy this week, and I’m sorry I kept it going with yesterday’s post. However, I’m also trying to be less self-critical (more on that below) so I’m going to continue soul-digging while softening the edges quite literally with the fluffiest sweater ever under $30. Same?

I feel this is the beginning of the end of nursing forever. My daughter, my third and (most likely) last baby, will be 11 months old three days from today. Last night, she didn’t want to nurse. She wanted to suck her thumb instead. Raquel is my first thumb sucker, so this is new to me. I laid her in her crib, certain she would change her mind and want me to feed her. But she didn’t.

Today is National Library Shelfie day, so I’m sharing a sneak peek of my new library / office progress and some of my favorite shelfie objects. The library in the new house has the most amazing built-ins and woodwork, but it was just too brown. I was inspired to paint the walls blue after seeing a blue library in another house we looked at but ended up not buying.…
Winter is a lazy hair lady’s worst nightmare. The sad truth for some of us is that there are some days that are simply to cold to skip the blow dryer. Between post-partum hair loss, breakage, and bleach fry, my mane was in need of a bodyguard. I’ve tried so many heat protectants that I was convinced they just weren’t a thing that works.…
