Traded the city hustle for a little Gilded Age gla Traded the city hustle for a little Gilded Age glamour in Lenox . ✨ 

If you haven’t visited The Mount yet, consider this your sign to pack up the car and head to the Berkshires.

Edith Wharton designed this estate herself, and walking through it feels like stepping into one of her novels—if her novels featured a modern mom chasing two girls through a perfectly manicured French garden. 

It is dripping in architectural elegance, but it never feels stuffy. It’s the perfect blend of historic sophistication and wide-open spaces for the kids to explore. Plus, there is nothing quite like showing your daughters the physical legacy of a woman who completely owned her story (and her style).

Tell me in the comments: If you were building your Gilded Age dream home, are you demanding the two-story library or the sunken Italian garden? 📚🌿

Motherhood in the little years is a beautiful, cha Motherhood in the little years is a beautiful, chaotic, and wonderful whirlwind. 

Between the endless scheduling and the sheer energy it takes to keep everything running, it is so easy to overlook the small, unscripted moments that make this chapter so brilliant.

We talk a lot about the milestones, but what about the spontaneous living room ballet recitals? The architectural pillow forts that take over the living room? The fact that my wardrobe is now routinely critiqued by two tiny fashion directors who strongly advocate for more sequins or that while I might want chocolate ice cream at the pretend Gelateria in my yard I instead get handed a flavor called “Rainbow Chocolate Pink”?

These are the unplanned perks. The moments that force you to be present, laugh a little louder, and remember that life doesn’t have to be perfectly tidy to be incredibly beautiful.

These are the Blink-and-You-Miss-It Moments I’m fiercely clinging to as a mom to two little girls who I love more than anything.

What is your favorite unplanned perk of the season you are in right now? 

Let me know in the comments. ✨🥂

This video is from 2022—masks on, being so incredi This video is from 2022—masks on, being so incredibly careful because of Covid, but absolutely determined to sing to our Nunny. Today, she would have been 105.

It has been two and a half years since we lost her, and if there is one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: it doesn’t matter how many years a person gets on this earth. Living a remarkably long, beautiful life doesn’t make it one bit easier for the people who have to stay behind and say goodbye.

I still have that immediate, gut reaction to pick up the phone and call her the second something exciting happens in our lives. Arielle just performed at her very first Open Mic, and my first thought was how much I wanted to tell Nunny all about it. Aurora isn’t in this video—she’d make her appearance the following year—and so often, when she hits a new milestone or does something for the very first time, my heart aches wishing Nunny was sitting right there to see it.

The world will truly never be the same without you in it. We love you so fiercely, and we miss you every single day.

Happy Birthday, Nunny. 🕊️🤍

Trade the heels for your chicest sneakers, because Trade the heels for your chicest sneakers, because Roger Williams Park Zoo @rwpzoo is the ultimate all-day itinerary. 🦒✨

We came for the magnificent elephants and giraffes, but the real plot twist? ‘A Bug’s World.’ I am the first to admit I am not a bug person, but watching the girls completely mesmerized by larger-than-life animatronic insects was unexpectedly fabulous. 

Add in high-flying rescue dogs serving major personality and the beautiful chaos of petting the goats, and this is a full-day adventure you absolutely need to book.

Have you seen ‘A Bug’s World’ yet? Let me know below! 👇

Two princesses, infinite sprinkles, and twenty yea Two princesses, infinite sprinkles, and twenty years of us. ✨👑

Over the weekend, we threw our annual joint birthday bash for the girls, and naturally, it was a royal affair. We celebrated 7 and 3 the only way we know how—with tiaras, a little beautiful chaos, and our favorite people (both related and chosen family) at Putnam Pantry. There is something perfectly high-low glam about tulle dresses at an ice cream smorgasbord, and frankly, I am here for it. After everyone conquered the legendary sundae bar, we kept the sugar high rolling with cupcakes and opening presents. 🧁🍨

But today is actually a day of major milestones all around. First, it marks exactly 20 years since my very first date with Alex. Two decades, a lifetime of adventures, and two beautiful girls later... someone pour the champagne! 🥂

It’s also the three-year anniversary of finally giving our youngest her name. Fun fact: it took us a solid two days to officially name her. Behind closed doors, I was secretly whispering “”Isla”” to her, convinced that was the winner. But in true dramatic, big-sister fashion, it was Arielle who ultimately decreed her little sister would be named Aurora. Honestly? It’s the ultimate princess name, chosen by our very first princess, so it was always meant to be. 💕

Cheers to 7, 3, and 20! 🍾

How we celebrated three years of magic, sass, and How we celebrated three years of magic, sass, and keeping us entirely on our toes. ✨🎈

Aurora woke up yesterday to her favorite stuffies delivering three balloons for her big day. Naturally, this included a signature touch of toddler drama—she was deeply offended that someone dared to attach a balloon to her baby doll’s carriage. (We have to respect a girl with a strict creative vision.)

From there, we fully embraced the birthday anarchy:

The Menu: Cake for breakfast, because obviously. Later, we hit the ultimate high-low culinary pairing of a Happy Meal for lunch and homemade chicken nuggies for dinner. 🍟🥂

The Itinerary: A serious toy shopping spree, mini-golfing with her big sister, and round one of ice cream. ⛳️

The Big Reveal: Her very own ice cream cart from mama and daddy! She is completely obsessed. 🍦

A massive shoutout to Daddy for pulling a covert sunrise assembly shift to build the cart before the rest of us even opened an eye. Look, I can navigate a chaotic schedule and pull off high-low glam, but dawn construction is simply not my ministry. 💅🏻

A brilliantly exhausting, wildly fun day for a newly minted three-year-old. Loving this girl fiercely. 💖
