Floral Ruffle Trim Dress

DRESS | SANDALS | STUDIO 33 HANDBAG

So far pregnancy has been ALL about making things work. No matter what it comes to, making it work has been my motto. So when I saw this dress and knew I had to have it, I started telling myself ” you’ll have to make it work”.

This gorgeous, floral ruffle trim dress is an absolute must-have summer piece. Of course if you aren’t pregnant, this style is perfect for you. It’s a non-maternity piece, but I’m definitely making it work. For just $18, it’s an incredibly easy purchase.

I can’t forget to mention it comes in two colors, and it’s super comfortable. Post pregnancy, I know I will live in this look. I will again be saying to myself “make it work” with my new body. I think it’s easy to make it work when you have beautiful pieces to chose from.

Casual Maternity

I won’t lie, I was running errands in this look, and thought I might as well show you guys what I really look like at 30 weeks pregnant. This definitely isn’t my most stylish look, but it’s real.

This non-maternity top is the perfect amount of flowy and oversized, paired with my maternity denim shorts. If you know anything about maternity bottoms, the belly band seam starts super low. So if you’re planning to wear non-maternity tops, you have to plan on them being long enough to cover the band. This casual blouse fits the bill.

I have promised you guys some new looks as I return to work for 1/2 days today. It may be next week when I have a few looks to show, but they are long overdue. Being on bedrest and not feeling 100 percent, it was just not in the cards for me to keep up on here. But, I will be back soon.

Back On The Grind

TOP | EARRINGS | JEANS | BOOK

Since Evan’s surgery (March 19th), life has looked a lot different around here. Not a bad different or a great different, just different. We’re still waiting for a sense of normalcy to greet us, but until then, we’re back on the daily grind. Or I am at least… trying to work while one of our parents takes their turn at helping us out around the house.

Thankfully for amazing friends and family that support us, we have the most generous meal train that keeps me out of the kitchen, and focused on work and helping Ev. Speaking of Ev, I couldn’t be more proud of him. He is walking and moving around with strength and determination. He is slowly but surely, gaining the confidence to do so many things on his own. So he’s back on his grind of sorts too.

Today we meet with the doctors for the first time since surgery, and I can’t believe it’s already here. His stitches will be removed and he will get a good look-over from the neurosurgeon’s nurse. Minus a few questions, we are so excited for his progress thus far and we know his doctors will share in that excitement with us.

I can’t thank all of you for your love and support over the past few weeks and months, and the weeks and months ahead of us. God is so good.
