The most beautiful summer blooms sent to my sister, Grace, after the premiere of her original musical, Loreneβs Reverie! They were so stunning I had to capture a few photos!
Here Comes The Son: Sophieβs Baby Shower!
Last weekend we celebrated the upcoming arrival of Baby Boy Wilson! I am SO excited for Grant to have another boy cousin (so close to his age!) to grow up with. Sophie, you are going to be the most amazing mom, I canβt wait to experience motherhood alongside you. Here are a few of my favorite photos of our sunny celebration at my parentsβ home.
Peony Season 2024
My favorite time of year! Once again my peonies are in full bloom and bringing lots of joy.
Grantβs First Birthday!
Our dino-baby turned one on March 24th and we had the most wonderful celebration with family and friends at my parentβs house. Grant loved his cake (after I helped break off a piece for him) and we had perfect weather. Iβm so glad I will have these photos to look back on to remember the day!
Around The Web: Q1 2024
While my around the web posts are some of my favorite, this year has really gotten away from me! Going forward I plan to share quarterly, starting this month. Easter is early this year, so I loved getting to pick out Grantβs Easter basket! While he probably will enjoy it more next year, these are special days getting to watch our little guy experience the world β especially each holiday. Soon I will post Grantβs milestones photos/notes and we canβt believe we are already celebrating his first birthday! Here are a few links I wanted to take note of the first few months of the year:
Iβm obsessed with the Easter basket we got for Grant this year! Itβs no longer available but if it is back for 2025 RUN to Crate&kids!
To start the year here is a fun recap of color trends for 2024 as well as a guide to current fashion micro-trends.
Dale loves Khruangbin and we both enjoyed this animated video!
I have such fond memories of visiting Le Bon MarcheΜ on my very first trip to Europe so was excited to see this current installation/shopping experience!
Bookmarking this list for future secondhand shopping!
Unfortunately, Ottobroke one of my beloved bedroom lamps so Iβm considering a pair of these to sit on the dresser.
Also on the hunt for some more toy storage in Grantβs room. This bench could be an option!
A few momming articles that caught my eye recently: one on Instagram parenting classes, one about Dr. Becky (Iβm reading Good Inside currently!), and the hilarious reality of bringing a new baby home for the first time (at least for us!)
Love following Carlyβs family, her boys are the cutest! Would love to get Grant a shamrock sweater for next St. Patrickβs Day!
I would love to check out this local bookstore in KC soon, BLK + BRWN.
Thinking we may need to order these with Grantβs face to keep his dino baby theme going!
And finally two favorite recent recipes: Broccoli Pesto Pasta and Instant Pot Pad Thai
Happy Spring!
Turkey Hill Daffodils
My mom brought me this beautiful daffodil bouquet from Turkey Hill and I couldnβt help but snap a few photos. Grammy has planted many daffodils at the lake over the years and I was sad to not be able to see them bloom in person! Our household is definitely ready for Spring!
