Nico’s First Birthday Party: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Our little stargazer is 1!
A huge mix of emotions: happy, sad, overwhelmed, relieved and so much love.
Sunless Tanner Review: Isle of Paradise Butter
To know me, is to know I LOVE sunless tanners. I like to try different brands and applications all the time and share my favorites.
Our Pantry Organization
I’ve always wanted to have a beautiful and well organized pantry, but to be honest, it’s not cheap! The containers really feel like an investment, but they are so worth it in the end.
Nico’s 1st Birthday Photoshoot: Photo Backdrop
Some of my favorite shots have me running out of the frame after I sat him down. He would crawl away so fast unless he was being entertained! They are so real and candid, and those are definitely the memories I want to keep forever.
Spring Overhaul Must Haves: Dresses
Do you ever just feel like you need a whole new wardrobe as the new season approaches? Yeah, same. Sometimes your closet needs a few fresh new pieces to spruce it up and make you feel like you did a complete overhaul.
The First Trimester: From Both Perspectives
It seems a little late to write this post but I wanted to make sure I really reflected on it before I shared. The first trimester was not easy, honestly for either of us. Which is why I think it’s important to share the first trimester, from both perspectives.

Nico Makel Levell - A Birth Story
Our midwife called him a stargazer. He was face up when he came out, which she said is a much harder way to get them out. But he was face up and eyes open, and ready to be here. I love that she called him a stargazer, bc his room theme is stars and the moon. It just fit so perfectly.
The Best Gifts for your Labor and Delivery Nurses
When I first started thinking about my hospital stay, I knew I also wanted to bring something for my nurses. Nurses in general are some of the hardest working people, but labor and delivery nurses are a whole other breed!
Celebrating My Pregnancy with a Lingerie Photoshoot
Everyone keeps telling me to really enjoy these last moments with my bump. They all say how much I will miss it when Luca is finally here and my body is “back to normal”. I can definitely see now, finally, what they have been talking about.
Blue Agate Themed Baby Shower
This last weekend was my baby shower! I decided on a blue agate theme baby shower, and was so thrilled with how it turned out. My sister and my moms (and SO many others) worked so hard to make it the most wonderful day. Oh, and we just so happened to announce his name at the shower! 😉
California Coast Maternity Shoot
To be totally honest, it wasn’t a planned shoot at all. I knew I wanted to bring a few maternity gowns and dresses with me on our trip to California. I also knew that there was a good possibility we would be too busy or too tired to even take these pictures.
