3 Healthy Dinner Recipes + Grocery List

One thing I've been trying to be better about is trying new dinner recipes so I'm not constantly making the same thing over and over.  For me, I need them to be pretty easy, pretty healthy, and pretty quick.  I'm not picky at all ;)  If you're like me in that way, then you can check out these 3 healthy dinner recipes I made last week, plus the grocery list to go with them so you don't miss an ingredient. Read More

How to Create a Workout Routine + My Workout Schedule

One of the most common questions that I get is "What is your workout routine?"  I used to share my Weekly Workout Schedule every single Sunday (for years!) on my blog prior to having Emma, and then once I had her I wasn't working out for those first 6 weeks, so I took a break from posting it and just never really got back to it!  SO....I think I am going to start doing that again just so it is helpful for people to see that each week for guidance.  But in this post I wanted to touch on my workout schedule now and give tips for how to create a workout routine.

Emma 11 Month Update

I seriously cannot believe my baby is 11 months!  I feel like I'm going to start any and every post about her that way.  Time really does fly and you don't notice just how quickly until you become a parent, I think.  Time please slow down!  Writing these posts will be something I enjoy looking back on one day, too.  Craig journals a lot of memories...I blog them :) Sharing an Emma 11 month update in this post about eating, sleeping, walking, playing, & more!Read More

Booty, Abs, & Cardio Workout

I think it's always a super fun workout to combine booty, abs, and cardio.  Those are the fun muscles to work!  Combine it with some cardio for a little extra heart-rate-boosting, calorie-burning action and you're good to go! Read More

Workwear Outfit Guide

It has been a couple of years now since I went full-time with my blog and left Corporate America, but after a handful of requests for some wear-to-work style, I decided to dust off that section of my style brain and create a little workwear outfit guide for y'all.  I know different jobs have different dress codes, and the styles I'm sharing today are probably most along the lines of business casual.  Some jobs might be slightly more formal business attire on a regular basis but I'd say for the most part, these items would be okay to wear to just about any job I can think of.  These are all pieces I would have worn to my job and I'm going to share exactly how I had my workwear wardrobe styled so I could mix & match a ton of pieces.
