Merry Christmas Y’all!!!

Okay so I know it’s Christmas morning but I wanted to share this outfit with y’all since I got SO many questions about the details whenever I posted it on Instagram a couple days ago!
This is probably the coziest maternity look I’ve worn like EVER!
I’m actually wearing this sweater backwards..I shared a post wearing it normal here.
I got this sweater from ShopHopes, but it’s currently sold out –
don’t worry I linked the exact same one for y’all below!!
I ended up getting this sweater in a medium for a more oversized look and I LOVE it so much.




Obviously today’s post is super quick and to the point because DUH it’s Christmas!!!
Before I go…If you’re going to splurge on ONE thing this year, make it these OTK boots y’all,
I promise you will not regret it. Seriously the best purchase I made all year.

Okay off to make my mamas famous “sausage balls” and get ready for the day!

Merry Christmas and THANK YOU so much for reading my blog and supporting me
& just being the best ever!
Love y’all tons.

Thanksgiving 2017

Thanksgiving weekend has come and gone and I’m totally ready for ALL things Christmas.
I wore this little number on Thanksgiving day,
These ShopPinkBlush maternity tops have been a total lifesaver.
My jeans are also ShopPinkBlush and I wear them multiple times a week….
I mean, I’m pretty sure y’all have seen me talk about them at least 10 times already.
They’re actually making an appearance in tomorrows post as well lol,
Oh and so are these booties…What can I say…I love versatile pieces!!



// Top // Vest (old) // Jeans // Booties //

We hosted Thanksgiving at our house this year which was a FIRST.
Thankfully everyone agreed that we should just make it easy and pick up the meal from Cracker Barrel, because Lord knows this pregnant lady was not about to cook a full Thanksgiving dinner.
Everything turned out great and it was so nice to be at home all day!
We managed to get a little family photo in our office,
Kyle looks a tad awkward & I look like a wale, but hey, we’ll take what we can get! lol

I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and of course enjoyed all the awesome
sales going on!
We have a crazy week ahead of us, I’m about to go grab breakfast with a friend and then I’ve got to start outfit planning for our mini babymoon getaway!!
We also have our hospital tour on Wednesday!
Oh, AND we still need to get a Christmas tree….
Okay, actually I’m not even going to start thinking about all of the things I need to do lol
Happy Monday Y’all!!

Day Trip to Austin

I’m actually kind of upset about these pictures…

and REALLY debated on whether I was going to share this outfit with y’all or not.

I’m obsessed with the outfit, loved it, Kyle loved it, I mean it was great.

HOWEVER, do you ever just have one of those days where you can’t seem to take a decent picture?

Like no matter how hard you try, how many different poses you try…

Nothing seems to be working for you.

Well I was VERY MUCH having one of those days.

The outfit was so much cuter in person, and I hate my face in every photo.

But hey, such is life.

On Sunday we made a little day trip to Austin to spend time with Kyles dads side of the family!

We got there and his Aunt Sue had THE most delicious lunch waiting for us. 

She had this amazinggggg fruit salad that I’m definitely going to need to make soon,

Don’t worry, I’ll get the recipe and be sure to share it with y’all 😉 

After lunch we did everything we could to get the boys eyes off the football games.

And we were quite successful. 

Kyle’s family is all about games and I kind of love it,

We played Taboo, some card games, and some quarters games!

and yours truly won herself $15 LOL Couldn’t take too much of the fams money 😉

I kind of don’t believe that tomorrow is already New Years Eve,

Like where the heck has the time gone?!

We don’t have any set plans yet but i’m sure we’ll be going downtown somewhere.

I got myself a sparkly little number from LuLus this year 

and I’m really hoping it’s as cute as I think it’s going to be.

Guess we’ll find out tomorrow! 

Happy Hump Day y’all.

Christmas Eve 2015

The weather has been pretty much awful lately, 

However a cold front FINALLY came through yesterday.

Over Christmas it was around 80 degrees, cloudy, and super humid…

Unfortunately that weather leads to crappy outfit pictures because lighting is kind of everything.

But hey, it’s better than nothin’!

Booties: ShopMCE

Necklace: PreeBrulee

I die over these leggings.

 They are THE softest material, and THE perfect amount of sparkle.

The photos above don’t really do them justice because of the lighting, 

but this one does a pretty good job.

My sister, brother in law, Kyle and I hopped in the car on the morning of Christmas Eve 

and all headed over to my parents house!

We got there around noon and snacked on all of moms delicious brunch foods,

got caught up in each others lives and then it was time for… 

PREZZZEEENNTTZZZZZ.

I have to say, my sister won the award for most creative/accurate gift.

HA, definitely wasn’t expecting to unwrap the “shitfaced/poop swirl/shithead” emoji.

Does anyone know what this emoji really means anyways? or is it just all of the above?

My parents definitely outdid themselves this Christmas [as they always do]

But forget about the gifts, I’m most grateful for family and the time we get to spend together.

After gifts, we had some delicious lunch and then headed to church together.

It was a perfect day spent celebrating Jesus’ birthday.
