It's Eric's birthday today! If you see him this week, make sure to wish him a happy birthday in person, or drop him a note or message online or by text! We've been busy this weekend enjoying some trick-or-treat events for Oliver and spending some time outdoors in the beautiful fall weather before it gets too cold again.

life update
favorite finds
Drop-Shoulder V-Neck Sweater
I got this sweater in a Wantable style edit this week and fell in love with it right away! It’s super flattering and a great color for fall/winter. A little bit of a splurge, but I got a good price through Wantable and will be wearing it over and over!
Mocassin Slippers
These slippers were a gift to me from a client a few years ago and I love breaking them out around this time of year! They are great as a house slipper but also convenient for stepping out of the house since they have a hard sole.
Pura Smart Diffuser
After several years of eyeing this up, I finally decided to grab one for our house - love that it is safe for kids and pets and I don’t have to worry about an open flame of a candle getting knocked over. I also love that I can set the intensity of the scent and even create a schedule for when it comes on. Right now I have a pumpkin chai scent that comes on for 30 min in the morning and a spiced cider scent that comes on for 30 min at night - gives me just a small sense of serenity in the chaos of this house! Hoping to get a discount code for this sometime soon to be able to share with you all!
Hollow Teether Tubes
I got these hollow silicone teether tubes for Ainsley since she is teething a lot these days. They are super easy for her to hold and they have lots of different sizes of bumps and shapes on them for her gums to enjoy.
Kitchen Soap Dispenser Set
I had been looking for a long time for a cute soap dispenser set for our kitchen sink and this plastic and bamboo one was such a great price and i love the look of the fonts they used - looks way more expensive than it was!
easy-peasy Toddler Hoodie
We have been loving this toddler hoodie for Ollie - this easy-peasy line of clothing is from Walmart and they have lots of adorable neutral styles and colors and the fabric is such good quality!
