15 days until Christmas. Let that sink in. Every year I tell myself that I will get my Christmas shopping done early, and that the last two weeks until Christmas will be spent enjoying hot chocolate and watching Christmas movies with the family. And every year I’m a meltdown away from pulling out my hair not knowing what to give as gifts. Although I may not have finished my Christmas shopping with only 15 days left, I managed to find some awesome gifts that can be ordered and delivered just in time for the big day. Here are some gift ideas for that special man or lady in your life that you can order and get as soon as possible! All the items for my mens gift guide can be ...
Last Minute Gift Guide 2019: Men & Women
Sebastian’s First Halloween!
There are a lot of things I'm excited about in motherhood, but I didn't think celebrating baby's first halloween was going to be as exciting as it was. Growing up I never really cared for halloween. Yea, getting candy was pretty cool but my mom never let me eat any of it, so trick or treating was kind of pointless for me. I never really had any cool costumes- I was always a soccer player (using my school soccer jersey, so creative). And I think I only went to 2 halloween parties my whole life.

30 Hours in Madrid: 30 Weeks Pregnant

We flew out of New York on a Thursday night and arrived in Madrid Friday late morning with Iberia Airlines. First off I DO NOT recommend flying with Iberia. Although our flight was super cheap ($400 round trip nonstop from NYC), the seats were extremely uncomfortable, customer service is the worst, and you have to pay for bags (which is normal now a days) but also to PICK A SEAT. Oh, and I wasn’t ...
Fall Home Decor On A Budget
Decorating your home for each season is nice, but can add up if you don't buy fall decor on a budget. Fall is my favorite season to decorate the house for- it's preparation for the holidays, I'm more active in the fall, and it seems like all the best candle scents are out in the fall. Waking up and being productive is easier, the weather is great, fall fashion is easy and comfortable, there are so many family friendly activities to do, and of course, pumpkin EVERYTHING. I’m just overall a happier person during the fall. Although this year’s “fall” started later (it was 90 degrees end of September this year in Jersey), decorating the apartment helped kick start our season on time. I’m ...
