It all has to come down.

But not today.

I’m going to keep the tree and lights and holiday knick knacks up a bit longer because they make me happy and I don’t know how to fill those spaces in our home anymore. And anyway a little bit of Christmas decor never hurt anyone so 🤷‍♀️ this @naturallife mug from Bryan was one of my favorite gifts this year. What were yours? Am I the only one who still has my 🎄 up? Happy Sunday, you guys! 🥰

Happy 2021, you guys 🍾🥳 pop that bubbly and let’s send 2020 off in style (or shove her ass out the door because she’s the house guest who clearly overstayed her welcome, amIright?!).

Do you set intentions for the new year, create goals you hope to achieve, or think up a word you’d like to focus on? I have been doing the word of the year challenge since 2017 and the word I picked this time around might remind you of a certain Friends episode and it might be a popular one for 2021. Who knows. Here’s a snippet from the blog post (#linkinbio if you’d like to read the whole thing).

Sidebar: This photo of Mila has nothing to do with anything but I could just eat her face she’s so delicious. And also she’s a big part of who I am (now, today), the reason for my being and a driving force behind everything I do these days ❤️

“The tail end of 2020 forced me to rethink a lot of things. Maybe it’s the pandemic, maybe it’s Maybelline, maybe it’s the fact that I have run out of fucks to give, maybe it’s Mila, and perhaps it’s just me… Once I turned that calendar year, something clicked—I don’t want to waste another moment on things that don’t matter in the end.”

I published a very merry recap on the blog this week (#linkinbio if you missed it/care to read!). I’m always so reflective at the end of the year, as I look forward to a new one filled with promise and hope. Of course I felt that way in December 2019 and look where we are now 🤪

Anyway. Despite everything, our Christmas was really special this year, not only because it was Mila’s first, but because she met new family members ❤️ My brother and his gf paid us a visit from FL and it made me so happy to share her with them—their visit was short but incredibly sweet and Mila only fussed a little bit (like her momma, she gets cranky when she’s hungry). We stayed outside and wore masks and it was a bit chilly but as normal an experience as 2020 would allow 😆

Bryan’s sister is planning a visit from Oklahoma in February to meet the little stinker. On the one hand, it’s not what any of us expected when we announced our pregnancy news to our families last October. On the other, life holds special meaning now in a year that dealt us all a very strange deck.

Here’s to a better 2021–filled with more togetherness, a lot more kindness, and happy memories to replace what many have lost. Happy happy New Year, my sweet friends 🥳🍾🎉

On so many days and in so many ways I have questioned myself and my decision making. As it turns out, parenting requires you to be really decisive, all the time 😆 it helps to have a partner who shows up for the little day to day things that make all the difference, like feeding and cleaning bottles to diaper changes and giving baths. The stuff that often goes unnoticed; the non sweeping gesture stuff. Thank you, @bryanholster. What a beautiful family we are creating ❤️ and thanks to my SIL @925kimberly308 for snapping this rare pic of us. Also shout out to me for the cute sweaters that B thought were only mildly lame 😂

Enjoy a Mila mocha, on us 😆

Wishing you a happy and safe holiday season, regardless of what it looks like this year. And in case you’re curious of what the behind-the-scenes of this shoot looks like, imagine three masked weirdos jumping up and down to get a baby girl to stop crying 😂 merry everything! 🎄🎁🎅⛄️

❄️⛄️🎄❤️

Why yes, that is a deer on my sweater with a caption that reads “Felt festive. Might delete later.” DID YOU EXPECT ANYTHING LESS? [ad]

It’s a weird season this year, no doubt about it. But we can still celebrate and be merry and maybe even create new traditions as a result of our circumstances. Life is about silver linings and sometimes you just have to dig a bit deeper <3

Today I’m partnering together with @NJLottery for a great last-minute party-pleaser of a gift. You can pick these up at the gas station and I promise you they’ll be better received than those socks you were eyeing.

Pay no mind to the schmutz on the mirror. It’s a cozy sweater, rainy/snowy mix of a Monday. The gang is (almost) all here 😂
