Cozy Winter in Ponchos

Happy New Year! Checking in for a quick post to share this super comfy cape I snagged during Black Friday shopping.

I really love Loft and have been hunting for a poncho wrap but had trouble finding one that didn’t look like I was walking around in an oversized blanket (although, I can’t think of a better way to get through winter…). This cape is big enough to feel like a warm hug, but not too big where I’m drowning in it. It’s also super soft!

And if you haven’t noticed by my photos, yes… I’ve finally saved in and bought a pair of maternity jeans. Sure, I could technically still squeeze into many of my jeans, but just because it (barely) zips, doesn’t mean it fits. Also, I was a little worried about stretching out my good jeans permanently. I refuse to spend a ton of money on maternity clothing, so I also snagged these from the GAP during Black Friday for half off. But honestly, they’re so comfy and don’t look like maternity jeans, so I’m thinking of buying another pair full price.

Life has been absolutely crazy lately. My family came into town for the holidays and it was so nice to take a step back from work and social media to enjoy their stay. They’ll be back pretty soon for the baby! We also have another big change coming. I don’t want to jinx it yet, but hopefully if it all goes through, we’ll be on the move next week.

Sharing with each other is a different story but… we’re getting there. 😂🚂 🛻 Watching the two of them interact together has been so much fun. From brushing teeth together to wearing the same clothes, Jude has been asking for Heath to be a part of everything he does and it makes me so happy. #heyheathjoseph #heyjudeharrison #thebadbergboys #childhoodunplugged #babyboy #toddlerlife #letthembelittle #boymom #brothers

There’s nothing better than seeing your kids bon There’s nothing better than seeing your kids bond with the kids of the friends you grew up with. ❤️ Always up for anything, Diana was the first friend to visit me when I moved to Chicago 2 months later. We walked the city up and down, ended up at secret bars, and even had a karaoke session to Mungo Jerry on the redline. It was only fitting that as G and I check off things on our Chicago summer bucket list (more on that later) we visit my favorite tourist attraction together with our families (that’s @dpvarroney and @gary.rosenberg far in the back doing their best dad stances! ❤️) Swipe for a throwback from her first visit, taken with a digital camera. 📷 #chicago #summertimechi #motherhoodunplugged #darlingweekend

We’re a little late on taking our 9 month photos We’re a little late on taking our 9 month photos (and we may have missed month 8 🤦🏻‍♀️) but there was no way we were letting this one go by, since this has been our favorite month yet! Heath is officially crawling everywhere and he is FAST. Though he’s still the chillest baby we’ve ever met, that doesn’t mean you can keep your eyes off of him. Once he sees something he wants, he’s determined to get it. He loves to mimic his brother’s sounds and movements (and play with alllll his toys 🤪) and thinks clapping his hands is the funnest thing in the world. 👏🏻 He looooooves to chat and say mama, munch on broccoli, drink water out of his big boy cups, and play in the grass. We’re loving these summer days with you, our little guy! ❤️ #heyheathjoseph #9monthsold #babyboy #childhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising
