Ken and I are heading to Mexico in a few weeks for our first parents only vacation in nearly two years. That might not seem like a long time but I can assure you with two kids and a puppy at home I’m counting the seconds until my bootie is in that airplane seat! Since we’re in the thick of winter here and I was very newly postpartum with Jojo last summer I’m in desperate need of a new swimsuit or two

When I first started out in my career {13 years ago, yikes!} I did a fair amount of traveling for work. Anytime a new project required someone to head out of town I’d happily volunteer, racking up frequent flier miles, personal and professional life experiences, and sometimes even stamps on my passport

I haven’t been this excited about a new clothing line in a long, long time. I have honestly been on pins and needles awaiting the launch of the Atlantic-Pacific x Halogen collection by blogger extraordinaire Blair Eadie since first hearing about it a few weeks ago. What mama doesn’t need a few new cozy sweaters and breastfeeding friendly blouses in their fall and winter wardrobe? This morning I told myself that I didn’t need any new shoes

We like to turn it into a little spa day – get the water temperature just right, add lots and lots of bubbles, and then after wrapping her up in the coziest towel we treat our lady to a little massage. Baby Dove Sensitive Moisture Tip to Toe Wash is hypoallergenic and is tear-free formula so everyone leaves the bath happy. Baby Dove products are created without dyes, parabens, phthalates or sulfates so while you do have to worry about dropping your phone in the bath while snapping a pic you don’t have to worry about that baby soft skin getting irritated at all. It’s hard to believe that in just a few months we’ll probably start combining bath time for the girls and retire our little tub forever.
