What We’ve Been Loving Lately March 2023

March 31, 2023

mom-blogger

Welcome back to the March edition of What We’ve Been Loving Lately! In this installment of our wrap-up of a few of the things we’ve been into over the past few weeks, we’re sharing life updates, what we’ve been watching and what we’ve crossed off of our shopping list. Here’s what we’ve been loving lately …

It’s a …?

Last month during our February edition of WWBLL I teased our upcoming gender reveal. And as I shared on the blog and via YouTube, we will be welcoming another baby girl to our brood this spring. We have so much to do still (this list just seems to keep growing and growing) and I’m not sure we’ll be able to get it all done in time!

Prepping for a Busy Spring

Which brings me to my next point – we have so much going on this Spring. I shared more about my spring plans in this post about my seasonal bucketlist. Hopefully we get it all crossed off before baby girl 2 arrives!

What’s on TV

We went from having to fill our evenings with reruns, to having more TV to watch than time! I am so excited that The Voice is back as that is always a fun show. I was really looking forward to the return of Ted Lasso but so far the episodes have been a little depressing. I am hoping that the tone picks back up, especially since this is the last season. We’ve really been enjoying the revamp of Night Court, one of my favorite shows from the 80s. John Larroquette doesn’t miss a trick. And the American version of Ghosts always promises a laugh. 

What we Bought in March

With all of the prep work we’ve been doing before the baby comes, I’ve been focused on organizational supplies to make our lives a little easier. When Alex redid my closet a few years ago I made the switch to these non-slip hangers and I love them. So I grabbed another box in the hopes that I can get started on organizing my other closets around the house. I also decided to upgrade Arielle’s clothes hangers, and get some extras for the outfits I know will be coming when the baby arrives. And I am loving these drawer organizers for her dresser. Soon I’ll do a post on the other updates we’ve made to the nursery.  Finally, for a kid who was born bald, Arielle has a ton of hair and subsequently a ton of headbands. I found this clever organizer that gets the headbands off the top of the dresser so I have more room for knick-knacks. 

I’ve also started shopping for Arielle’s Big Sister wardrobe and fell in love with this adorable sweatshirt that she can wear into the hospital to visit her baby sister. And these lacy bike shorts will look so cute under one of her tutus. 

What have you been loving (or not loving) lately? I’d love it if you’d email or DM me your recommendations.

I’m Pregnant!

What it’s Like to Have a Miscarriage

A very New York kind of magic. ✨ One minute we’re A very New York kind of magic. ✨

One minute we’re admiring the diamonds at the AMNH, where I am quietly debating if a 500-carat sapphire pairs best with pearls or my leather jacket, and the next, Aurora is blinking awake in her carriage to the sound of dozens of strangers belting out a classic at Strawberry Fields. 🥂

Honestly, slipping into a daydream when you are surrounded by that much unapologetic sparkle is practically a rite of passage—even for a little one catching a nap on the go. But rolling the stroller out into the fresh air for a spontaneous park-bench chorus? That is exactly the kind of city magic you just can’t plan.

Throw on your comfiest heels, grab an espresso, and let the city completely rewrite your family itinerary today. You never know where the detour will take you. 🚕 🍎

102 floors up, and right now, it truly feels like 102 floors up, and right now, it truly feels like we have the world at our feet. ✨

Celebrating 12 years in the very city where we got engaged—and where my own NYC story started—is pure magic. Watching our two girls thrive and fall completely in love with the city makes this milestone that much sweeter.

But let’s be unapologetically real for a second: marriage isn’t just about these glittering, top-of-the-world high notes. It’s about the grit behind the glam. It’s how you show up as an absolute team when the view isn’t so pretty, relying on each other through the tough, messy seasons that take real work.

Through the sky-high moments and the days that require all the hustle and heart we’ve got, there is absolutely no one else I’d rather navigate it all with.

Happy 12 years, Alex. Here’s to the climb, the view, and our beautiful, wonderful life together. 🥂🗽🖤

We are officially trading the quiet morning routine for the absolute magic and beautiful chaos of Manhattan! I wanted to start this trip off with a little bit of mystery, so before the girls even opened their eyes, the clues were waiting for them. There is nothing quite like that split-second realization when they figure out we are heading to the city.

The bags are packed, the sneakers are laced, and we are ready to take a bite out of the Big Apple.

Do you surprise your kids for trips, or do they help you count down the days? Let me know below! 👇

This is 40.🥂✨ For as long as I can remember, I ha This is 40.🥂✨

For as long as I can remember, I had this recurring dream. I’d be a little girl, sitting in front of a mirror, watching myself age. And right before I hit my 40th birthday, I would just… disappear. For years, I carried this quiet, nagging fear that my story was supposed to end before this decade even began.

But plot twist: I didn’t fade out. I just finally found my lighting.

I am officially 40, and I’m living a life I never could have scripted, let alone expected to love this much. I’m married to Alex—the wonderful guy I took to my senior prom, who I’ve been with for 20 years (married for almost 12!), and who I’ve been crushing on since I was even younger than Arielle. I’m raising the most amazing, insightful, and beautiful little girls who challenge me in the absolute best ways every single day.

I am completely in love with our beautiful, crazy chaos. I get to hustle at multiple jobs entirely on my own schedule, collaborate with dream brands in ways I never imagined, and bring my favorite people along for the ride.

Today was delightfully chill by design. But behind the scenes, I am deep in planning mode for a once-in-a-lifetime trip where everything is aligning perfectly, and I get to work with globally known brands and iconic landmarks.

I had a little revelation in the shower last week (I’ll share the full story soon), but to sum up exactly how I’m feeling right now: these last 40 years have been an incredibly wild, beautiful adventure. But with everything unfolding for me lately, I have this undeniable feeling that it was all just dress rehearsal.

The main act is just getting started. Watch out world—I’m coming for you. 🖤🍾

Since we’ve already established that my birthday is the official August holiday, I feel it’s only fair to remind you that the big day is actually tomorrow. Which means, yes, you still have precisely enough time to find me something suitably fabulous.

I’ll gladly accept vintage Chanel, a fresh box of pastries from that impossible-to-get-into French bakery, or simply an uninterrupted hour to drink something sparkling out of a coupe glass while wearing tulle and a leather jacket.

Here’s to another year of unapologetic ambition, wearing the killer heels even when I’m wrangling the girls, and adding a little extra rock ‘n’ roll edge to the everyday. 

Let the birthday festivities commence! 💖🍾
