This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com on behalf of Nine West Me and my little girl. When I found out I was pregnant with a girl, I was shocked. haha. According to all the old wives tales, I was having a boy by a landslide. Driving home from the doctor's office, I started imagining life with a baby girl and I was smitten. One of the things I was really looking forward to was outfit posts together. The last style posts I did here on the blog were all maternity! After taking off some time for ... continue reading...
My favorite Amazon purchases of 2018
Oh hey! Me over here. Looks like I'll be still recapping 2018 until the end of January ;) But really, so many times this year I've answered "I got it from Amazon!" to the age old question, "Where did you get that?!" and I wanted to share some of my favorites from this past year.

Mama
With the new year on the horizon, I started loosely thinking about 2019. Historically I've picked a word for the year but this year nothing big was coming to mind.

Looking back on 2018
I'm always a big fan of getting my "top 9" on Instagram every year. I remember going into 2018 knowing I was pregnant and imagining what this top 9 would look like - photos of my growing bump and a new baby. And as silly as it sounds, I needed to envision that end goal as I was dealing with morning sickness and pure exhaustion in my first trimester. How fun it is too look back on these photos - some before we knew we were having a girl, most before we met Hilde, and some of her growing up so ... continue reading...
Learning Photoshop
This post has been sponsored by Udemy. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Hi! I am Elizabeth, and I have been paying for Photoshop for 5 years and have never used it. 2019 is the time to change that, don't you think? I use Lightroom daily to edit photos for my blog and Instagram. I even have the app to edit my phone photos on the go, but I have been too intimidated to learn how to use Photoshop. People who use Photoshop went to art school and took classes on Graphic Design, right??!! Haha. ... continue reading...
