Thank you for being a part of a crazy year.
Here on the blog, I tried to post more consistently, have more original content and start keeping a more consistent editorial calendar. Y’all seemed to have loved the ‘Instagram Lately’ posts on Sundays, my series of Mom essentials in the “Mommy Monday” posts and the kickoff of me sharing one of my passions that I rarely talk about, fitness, in the “Wednesday Workout” posts.
We added an “Instagram” tab to the “Shop” page, I continued to focus on finding classic pieces that were worth that investment and fun pieces that didn’t break the break. I have loved the last couple of months that direct messages on Instagram and personal emails have increased tenfold and I have loved having ‘off air’ conversations with some of you on topics ranging to finding the perfect winter coat to how to get motivated to loose weight for your wedding.
On the personal front, my family dealt with life changing health diagnosises, managing Cancer, a wedding, and life with two little ones. We sold our first home that we purchased together after becoming engaged, where I didn’t spend the night until after our wedding and the subsequent sale of that home. We continued the house hunt, found our dream home and are still decorating! We have been lucky enough to watch Madrid flourish into her Big Sister role, her start of preschool and her vocabulary grow. Leo has crushed all the accomplishments that occur during that first year and always with a smile. He is the happiest baby you have ever seen!
We were lucky to take a special trip every month of this summer and one with each sets of parents. We watched the eclipse, celebrated my then sister-in-law to be’s bachelorette and Fernando on my brother’s bachelor party. We talked at nauseum about the potential for our first trip next fall for a big birthday away from both kids. I was lucky enough to see mutltiple life long friends, including watching my oldest friend become a mom to twins!
This short post doesn’t being to cover all that has been loved, lost and accomplished this year. I appreciate you following along, I have loved making personal contact with many of you and I hope that 2018 continues to see this little spot of the internet that I call my own as a way to inspire!
Thank YOU!
Happy New Year. xoxo
