I so desperately want to start wearing all my new fall clothes, but it’s still in the 90’s here!! It’s supposed to be cooling down in the next week or so, so I wanted to share 6 staples I ordered that I’ll be wearing on repeat this fall!
Everyone needs a blazer for fall! They are the perfect staple to throw over your shirt or dresses. I ordered this blazer in the nude toffee color and absolutely love it! I ordered an extra small and love the fit of it. I would order true to size unless you want it a bit oversized, then size up.
This bodysuit is what dreams are made of!! Not to mention the gorgeous square neckline! I love this bodysuit because there are so many ways you can style it AND it’s not see through!!! I ordered an extra small and it fits true to size!
: BLACK JEANS
I’ve been wearing these black jeans with everything! I’m so glad I ordered them. They pair well with any outfit, and I love the dark wash for fall. I got a size 26 in the “after sunset” color and they fit true to size! They are a staple everyone needs in their closet!
I’m a sucker for a good quality turtleneck sweater and this one is incredible! The detailing, the color, and the fabric is so good. I ordered it in an extra small and it fits true to size! Comes in other fun color options too!
: STUDDED HI TOPS
These hi tops are seriously so fun for fall! I’m tempted to buy them in every single color!! I wear mine with everything because it’s such a fun way to add some bling to your outfit. I ordered my normal size 8 and they fit perfectly!
I love this henley top for fall! Unfortunately, it’s already sold out. But I found a similar one that I absolutely love too! It’s a basic comfy tee that can be worn with anything!
September is flying by and I’m just so excited for fall fashion!! I ordered some new shoes for fall, and let me tell you, they are GOOD. I’m so excited about all of them! If you know me, then you know I order shoes + clothes that I can wear with anything. And all of these I’m sharing today are just that! Hope you guys love them as much as I do and find a good pair you can style all through the fall + winter!
I am SO excited about these boots! I ordered the tan color in a size 8 and they fit true to size! Every detail is stunning, and I can’t wait to style these all throughout the fall + winter!
I’m obsessed with these studded hi-tops! They are so fun when you want to add some bling to your outfit! They come in other colors too- not just black!!! I think I need them all, haha. These ones also fit true to size.
I ordered these heels in black and tan because they are just that good. The heel is the perfect height and I absolutely love the ankle strap. They are such a good staple; you can wear them to church or with your everyday outfits! I ordered a size 8 and they fit true to size!
: SILVER BALLET FLATS
Who’s loving the ballet flat trend for fall? I was hesitant to order these silver ballet flats, but I fell in love with them! In the picture below, I styled them casually with my favorite bodysuit, sweats, and a shacket! But I also can’t wait to dress them up! Ordered a size 8 and they fit true to size.
Everyone needs a good pair of black boots for fall and these ones are INCREDIBLE. They are a western style boot, which you guys know I love. You can literally wear them with anything, I think I’m most excited about these ones!! Ordered a size 8 and they are true to size!
: SAMBAS
I also hopped on the Adidas Samba trend and I’m loving mine! You can style them so many ways too, which I love. I always want shoes that I can wear with anything. The Sambas are limited sizing right now, but here’s a similar pair that’s cheaper and has more sizing availability.
I always get asked what items I use when I travel and the best way to organize things so I thought it would be good to show you my travel favorites today! And the best part is they are all from Amazon!!
These packing cubes are a game changer!! If you haven’t tried packing cubes, you’re missing out. No more trying to fit everything into your suitcase and hoping it fits! I can pack way more when I use packing cubes.
: PILL ORGANIZER
I ordered this pill organizer and love it! I use it for medicine and my vitamins. It’s perfect for traveling to throw in your belt bag. Only $6 too!
: SHOE HOLDER
This shoe holder is amazing for traveling!!!! I never knew how to pack my shoes without cramming them into my suitcase and being smooshed. But not with this shoe holder! I got the L size and it says you can fit 3 pairs, but I can fit 4-5 shoes in there! So happy I purchased.
This makeup brush holder is so nice to keep in my makeup bag, especially when I travel! It’s easy to clean and can hold a lot! Under $15!
: PORTABLE CHARGER
Everyone needs a portable charger when they’re traveling. This one is the perfect size and requires no cord!!! Only $29.99 and comes in other color options!
: CLEAR TOILETRY BAGS
I love these clear toiletry bags because they are so easy to clean, especially if anything spills. They are perfect for storing all my moisturizers, lotions, and shampoo/conditioners. Get 2 of them for $9.99 or 3 for $13.99!
This $5 jewelry travel case is the perfect size to bring with you while traveling. It has different compartments for necklaces, earrings, and rings. Comes in a few colors!
: SUNGLASS HOLDER
I don’t know about you, but I have a good collection of sunglasses and I always feel the need to bring multiple pairs with me on vacation, haha. This sunglasses holder holds 4 pairs of sunglasses safely so they won’t break or get scratched! It’s a game changer!
. . .
Safe travels for everyone traveling this fall + winter!
I have been obsessed with all the Amazon sets I’ve ordered recently! I have a great collection that I can’t wait to wear all fall long! The best part is that these ones are closet staples and can be styled so many ways. I love buying sets because I can wear the top and bottoms together or separate. The possibilities are endless! Keep scrolling to see them and get all the sizing details!
The set above is the Free People Hailee sweater set dupe for less than HALF the price! It’s such good quality too! I ordered the black and the khaki and love both of them for fall. AND it’s on sale right now for under $40!!! Run!!!! Wearing a small and fits perfectly! I’m 5’4″ for reference.
The set above is the Free People Freya Set DUPE! I got the same size I get in the FP one (extra small), and it fits perfectly. Definitely true to size! I am 5’4″ for reference, and the length is perfect. This one comes in a ton of fun colors too! I also love pairing the top with jeans, or the bottoms with a bodysuit. Again, there are just so many ways to style this one. It’s a closet staple for every season!
Of course I had to order the long sleeve version! It’s so perfect and comfy for fall. I’m wearing the kahaki white in the picture above, but there are so many fun color options! Wearing a small and fits true to size! I can’t wait to wear the top with some denim jeans too!
If you live in Utah, then you know the hype that is all things SWIG cookies!! They are the OG of drink + cookie shops and in my opinion, the very best!!! Their cookies are unique and delicious and once you try them, something you will find yourself craving! While this recipe isn’t 100% guaranteed to be identical, it is about as close as you are going to get and JUST as delicious!!
– COOKIE INGREDIENTS –
1 cup butter (room temperature)
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/4 cup sugar

Once your dough is all mixed together, roll it into 2 inch balls (golf ball size) and place on your cookie sheet.
Put ¼ cup sugar in a flat dish. Dip the bottom of a drinking glass into the sugar, and then press that firrmly into the center of your dough ball. If you are doing it correctly, the dough should spill out from under the sides of the glass.
BAKE dough balls at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. The cookies should just barely be browning on the bottom. After baking move cookies to a cooling rack + once cool place in the fridge.
– FROSTING INGREDIENTS –
1/2 cup butter (room temperature)

Joe’s Weight Loss Journey with the Tirzepatide Shot
I’ve gotten so many comments about Joe’s weight loss and what he’s been doing so I thought I’d share all the details here so you can always refer back to it! He’s been taking the Tirzepatide shot from G.O.A.T. Athletic Spa and has loved it so far! Their website shares a ton of good information about the process, but today I wanted to share why Joe chose to do it, how he’s liked it, and kind of just his experience with it.
ALL ABOUT THE TIRZEPATIDE SHOT
picture taken on 9/6 (11 weeks on the shot + 29lbs down)
: WHAT IS IT?
The Tirzepatide shot is a weekly shot that helps with losing weight and decreasing fat mass. The website says “tirzepatide is a peptide molecule that is produced synthetically that acts on both GIP and GLP-1 receptors as a receptor agonist. It works by impacting your body’s insulin levels, blood sugar production, and hunger hormones. It also signals to the brain that you’re full, so you eat less, since it also slows the movement of food through your stomach, so you feel full longer.” If you want to know more about the science behind it, here is the link for that information. (And yes, it is safe!)
: WHY IS JOE DOING IT?
With all the stress of moving, his job, our new build chaos, etc, Joe put on some weight. He wanted to lose the weight he put on, so after carefully researching about this shot, he decided to go for it. He’s been on the shot for 11 weeks and has lost 29 pounds!!! Of course, he sticks to a diet and does his daily exercise. The best way to maximize this program is to change your habits… such as eating better and exercising daily. It’s a very individual decision, so be sure to do some research if you want to try this program.
: WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS?
The website states that the side effects of the shot are minor and not everyone experiences them. The most common side effects are nausea, upset stomach, diarrhea, or constipation. With Joe’s experience, his side effects have been feeling full all the time, a little nausea from not eating enough, and reflux at night when he eats late. That’s all Joe’s had, and they haven’t been bad at all. His food hasn’t tasted disgusting at all either.
: HOW LONG IS THE PROGRAM?
Your first vial of Tirzepatide lasts 6 weeks. You take the shot once a week. As your does increases, future vials will last 4 weeks. You can do it for as long as you want or as short as you want.
: WHERE CAN I GET THE SHOT?
They have one in-store location right now and it’s in South Jordan, Utah. They are opening a store in St. George in October though!! You need to be in Utah to get the shot from G.O.A.T. Spa, or at least visit Utah. By law, they can’t ship or prescribe out of state yet. They’ve had lots of people from out of state come to their spa, or even have them ship it to a Utah address (like if they live in Vegas and have family in Utah or something).
: PRICE BREAKDOWN + MY DISCOUNT CODE
Their regular pricing for the first vial of Tirezpatide is $750. The first vial will last 6 weeks and as your dose increases, future vials will last 4 weeks. If you’re a member of the spa, then it’s $595 for the first vial.
My discount code KAILEE gets you $225 off your first vial! So instead of $750, it’s $495!
I ordered this shacket in 3 different colors! It’s the perfect staple for fall to throw over everything. I ordered a small and love the oversized fit!
: NO-SHOW SOCKS
I wanted some versatile no-show socks that would work for me, Hunter, and Hayden so we ordered these ones and they work great! Under $20 for 6 pairs!
: SCOTCHGUARD
This scotch guard fabric protector is amazing!!!! I use it for my bed, the girls’ bed, and all our shoes! 10/10 recommend!
: HAIR CURL CREAM
Hudson and I had to stock up on our favorite curl cream! We go through it so quick. I just apply it in mt hair after I wash it. I don’t brush it or add anything else, just put in this cream! AND it’s on sale right now!
: BLACK SWEATER SET
This black sweater set is the DUPE for the Free People Hailee Sweater Set and it’s less than half the price!!!! Comes in a ton of fun colors! I got the black and the khaki color. I ordered the small and it fits true to size!
: KHAKI SWEATER SET
Of course, I had to get the long sleeve version of my favorite sweater set! I seriously love it! I got the xs in white, khaki, and deep grey! Comes in a ton of fun colors for fall and winter!
: NONSTICK PAN
I had heard so many good things about this nonstick pan, so I finally caved and ordered it! It’s always nice to have an extra pan around and this one is SO good!!
: FLIP FLOPS
I’ve been wearing these flip flops non-stop! Such good quality and match everything.
: CALCIUM SUPPLEMENTS
I’m low on calcium so my mom recommended these supplements. She likes the caramel but they tasted gross to me, so I ordered the milk chocolate flavor and really like them!
: PILL ORGANIZER
I bought this pill organizer to hold my tylenol, vitamins, etc. It makes it easy for traveling and it fits perfectly in my belt bag. Only $5 right now!
: WHITENING TOOTHPASTE
We had to stock up on our favorite whitening toothpaste! I’ve used it for months and love the results.
: TRAVEL SHOE HOLDER
I saw this travel shoe holder and knew I needed it! Every time we travel, I hate shoving my shoes into my suitcase, so I ordered this shoe organizer! I got the large size and it fits 3 pairs of shoes!

What was your favorite Amazon purchase this past month?
If you’ve been following my newsletters that I release every Thursday, then you know I’ve been journaling what happens throughout the week! So if you want to keep up on a weekly basis and hear all about the craziness, you can subscribe here! Today on the blog I wanted to give a house update, kid’s update, share more about Joe’s weight loss, and share about how my mom is doing with her kidney stones!
OUR LIFE/HOUSE UPDATE
: HOUSE UPDATE
We got the bids back on our house and we’re a million+ dollars over our budget. So now we’re back to square one. We’re trying to decide if we should wait it out to save more money, or downsize the house, or repick materials, etc. We got a lot to figure out. We’re not trying to rush anything, so we’re just taking our time to make sure everything is how we want it. It looks like we won’t break ground for quite a while.
We bought the house we’re in now thinking we would only be in it for a year to a year and a half. Now we don’t really have a timeline for when our new house will be done… hopefully it will be done in about 2.5 to 3 years. So now we’re looking for a house that will fit our family better. There’s a bigger house being built across the street, so we put an offer on it. They didn’t accept it so I was pretty sad about that. But we’re just going to wait it out and trust God’s plan that we’ll find something that will be more comfortable for our family for the next few years.
: KIDS UPDATE
Hunter absolutely loves going to school in St. George! She said there’s more traditions and dances at this school, so she’s really excited about that. She has a great group of friends and friend groups from different schools! She’s dating a cute boy and she’s just overall doing so good! She started varsity for the first couple games she’s played and she’s loving it! It’s been so fun to watch her.
Hudson just started football. He hasn’t played since he was 8 so he’s just loving it! Now that we’re in a smaller town, the kids are able to do more sports. Hayden was on 2 cheer competitive teams, so we just narrowed it down to one team and she’s still enjoying it. Harper is in ballet and gymnastics, and she absolutely loves it. We missed the soccer cut-off for Houston, so he’s just been hanging with us and going to all the kid’s games! The kids are still happy to be in St. George. They’re loving the weather, school, and just being by family!
: JOE’S WEIGHT LOSS
A couple of you noticed on Instagram that Joe has been slimming down and you’re totally right. He’s lost almost 25 pounds! He’s been doing the Tirzepatide shot with G.O.A.T. Athletic Spa. With all the stress of work and things not panning out exactly like they were supposed to, he put on some weight and hasn’t been able to lose it, so he decided he just wanted to try it out. It’s not something he plans on doing forever. I’m working on a blog post right now to share all the details about this, so be watching for that!
: MY MOM’S KIDNEY STONE UPDATE
You guys have been so sweet to DM and check up on my mom. Just a little backstory…she had been in pain for about 2 weeks and didn’t tell anyone. The other day I went over to her house and she wasn’t there, she was at a medical center and they told her to go right to the ER because she had kidney stones. I guess kidney stones run in the family. Her dad had them too. So she ended up getting the surgery and it went well. She did get a stent, but they’re removing it on Wednesday. Overall she’s feeling much better than she did 2 weeks ago. She has the same pain that I had where it hurts to sit down. She missed Hunter’s last soccer game so she was sad about that. She’s getting them tested to see what caused her to get them. Mine was from drinking too much greens, so we’ll find out about hers soon. She’s so glad she did the surgery!
. . .
Hope everyone’s doing well and enjoying their last few days of August!
Is anyone else as shocked as I am that we are almost done with August?! This summer seemed to fly right by! Today on the blog I’m sharing the top 10 sellers of the summer! I’m sharing all the products that both you and I loved this past summer and trust me, you’re going to want all of them.
You guys went crazy over this swimsuit I shared earlier this summer! I love the high waisted bottoms; they are so flattering on everyone. Under $35 and comes in a ton of fun colors + patterns! Be sure to SIZE UP. I originally ordered a small, but it was too big. I ordered the medium and it fit perfectly!
The Lululemon belt bag is a top seller every summer because it’s the perfect accessory for summer! It’s hands-free and fits all your essentials. I take mine everywhere… gym, running errands, grocery shopping, etc. If you’re wanting a cheaper option, this belt bag dupe from Amazon is unreal and under $20! We have a few of them and they are amazing quality.
I love the Lululemon align tank for working out, but I couldn’t always justify the price, so when I found this $22 dupe from Amazon, I knew I had to try it! It’s seriously just as good as the Lulu one! It comes in tons of colors and fits true to size! I wear the small and it fits great. You guys also loved this pleated skirt! It’s the cutest skirt for summer work outs!
It doesn’t surprise me that this Freya Set Dupe from Amazon was a top seller this summer! We all love the Free People Freya Set, so when I found this dupe for HALF the price I was thrilled! The quality is so good that I seriously ordered it in 3 more colors! I wear the extra small and it fits true to size!
I am obsessed with these olive pants, so I’m so glad you guys love them as much as I do! There are so many fun ways to style them and they are perfect for any season! They come in other fun colors, so I’ll probably be ordering more! I’m wearing size 25 petite and they fit true to size!
I absolutely LOVE this black dress from Walmart! And you can’t be the price… only $27!!!! I love that you can dress it up or down during any season. I’m wearing the extra small and the length and fit is great!
It doesn’t surprise me that this top + skirt was both top sellers this summer. This ruched top was my go-to this summer because I can style it so many ways! I loved pairing it with this silk skirt as well. The skirt is amazing, I even ordered it in black. It’s on sale right now so go snag one for yourself! (Wearing an xs in both).
This swimsuit from Amazon is amazing and I’m so glad you all love it too! The colors are so fun. I’m wearing a size small, and it fits perfect. Comes in a ton of fun colors and is only $34.99!
These black shorts were a big hit this summer. I swear I wore them almost every day, haha. They match with everything and have the cutest hemming. Definitely a summer staple!
Stanley drinkware are top sellers all year round! Our family loves all our Stanley water bottles, we have a huge collection. And better yet, I have a discount code that gets you 20% off all flipstraw bottles, like the ones shown above! Use code KAILEE20 for 20% off!
Happy 40th birthday to me!! To be honest, I feel like we’ve been celebrating my 40th birthday since the middle of July!! Haha. My sweet residency girlfriends surprised me weeks ago for a weekend getaway trip to California (I shared all the details here). I had no idea at the time, but it was everything I needed! Just thinking about those friendships gets me teary-eyed. And 2 weeks ago, Joe surprised me with a weekend in Desert Color with the whole family! It was the best weekend together.
Amidst all the celebrating, I’ve been a little emotional about turning 40. Not because I’m getting older, but just because it’s the end of an era. Like, I’m done having babies. I’m done having little kids at home with me during the day (all of my kids are now in full-day school). Like these little things that I thought would last forever are now gone. And also, because I guess I just felt as though I haven’t done enough to be 40. I thought I’d be all proper and grown up. But I still feel like the same 18-year-old Kailee.
I always imagined that by 40 I’d have everything figured out. And well… to be completely honest, I felt like this last year of our life’s we’ve had nothing figured out! Or so we thought we did, but then God had other plans for us. I imagined I’d have mastered things like not feeling stressed (ha, jokes on me) or I’d be cooking fabulous meals every night in the kitchen without needing a recipe, just like my Grandma Hunter. I imagined I’d be having weekly lunches with my girlfriends and be in such a fabulous schedule that I’d be going to the gym every day too. I guess I just thought that I’d feel different, more grown up, and it turns out I don’t.
I’m still the same “speaks her mind” kind of girl, the one who always wants a plan and a list for everything. The same girl who worries about things I have no control over and gets irritable when I’m tired, cold, or hungry. I’m still the same spunky teenager who talks way too much and eats too much ice cream. I’m still stubborn but fun, and I’m still addicted to being “busy”!!
But at the same time, I know more about love and loss. I know what it feels like to lose 4 babies. I know how it feels to fall in love with your best friend. I know how it feels to wake up every morning beside the one you love and know that no matter what life throws at us, we’ll get through it as long as we’re together. Even though life feels so overwhelming at times.
I know how it feels to never know where you’re going next, because some medical school “match system” gets to decide. I know the saddest + excitement of moving every 4-5 years. I know what it feels like to leave your hometown and everything you know to move across the country. I know how it feels to say goodbye to dear friends that feel like family because you’ve had to lean on them for so many years since your family didn’t live close.
I know that there is so much more to life than simply existing. I know that life is full of challenges and setbacks and the most important thing is to just keep going. Even when nothing makes sense. I have learned to just trust God because His plan is ALWAYS better than your own, in the end. I know that I’ve wasted far too much time worrying about the future, that I forgot how to live in the present.
I know that life is far too short, so figuring out what’s important is the real key to happiness. And I still struggle with this balance. I know that good friends are worth their weight in gold, that true friends will be there no matter how many months or years pass!!
I know that it’s okay to fail and fall flat on your face. But it’s equally important to learn from those failures and get back up again. I’ve learned that’s it’s better to forgive than to hold onto grudges. Because honestly, you never know what’s going on in someone else’s life. I also learned that someone else’s actions are a reflection of them and not you.
I know that it’s okay to not be okay. I know that my good qualities outweigh my bad, that I’m not perfect but I’m learning. And that for the first time in my whole life I am more me than I have ever been. Unapologetically.
I know that I’ve accomplished + achieved so many wonderful things in my 40 years. None of which I ever give myself enough credit for. But the thing I am most proud of is being a mom to these five crazy people. It will forever be my greatest accomplishment. And I am grateful, every second of every day, that they are mine and I am theirs.
Life is not easy. It’s not meant to be. But sitting here today at forty years old, I feel so grateful to be here. To be able to watch my kids grown up and have the chance to raise them. I might not feel older or “changed” but I do know I’m everything I was supposed to be, and I am looking forward to seeing what the future has in store for all of us.
I wanted to share an update of how our summer has been in our new home and how everyone is adjusting to the smaller space. If you missed it, we moved back to St. George, our hometown, in the spring. If you missed all those details, I’ll link that blog post here. Overall, the kids are doing great and loving St. George! School starts next week and everyone’s excited about that!
OUR UPDATE
: OUR TEMPORARY HOME
We bought a house to live in for the next 2 years while we wait for our custom house to be built. The kids and I moved here in March and Joe moved down the end of April, so we’ve officially been here together as a family for about 3 and a half months!
We bought this home in the same neighborhood where we’re building so that the kids can have same friends and go to the same school. It’s a little tighter than we thought it would be… the kids are growing quicker than we anticipated. All the kids are sharing one bathroom. The babies basically share the master bath with us, and it hasn’t been too bad.
: JOE’S JOB
Joe hasn’t officially started his job in St. George yet, he’ll start in the late fall. So he’s still traveling up to Salt Lake to work a few times a month and working at a few surgery centers in St. George.
: BUILDING UPDATE
a lot of things have come to friction that we weren’t planning on. Things like zoning, walls, and a just a few complications. We’ve had to redesign the home a little bit again due to a few errors. The house is officially design, we’re currently getting it bid out. So it takes time to get everyone’s bids. We probably won’t break ground until mid December. We’re going to take you all through the process, everything just takes longer than you anticipate. I feel like we’ve been building a house for the past 3 years haha.
: KIDS UPDATE
The kids are starting a new fresh year at school next week! Hudson starts his first year of middle school, Hayden is starting her first year of intermediate, and Hunter will still be in high school. Hunter made the soccer team and has already had a couple games. She started varsity the other day and is totally thriving. She always says her life is like a movie. She still has hard days, but overall, all the kids are happy and optimistic about everything. Having both sets of grandparents around the corner has been the best thing. We couldn’t have asked for more. Even though we’ve totally downsized, everything about life here outweighs that. We’re just so happy to be in St. George.
: ARE WE CRAZY?
There’s a house being built across the street from us. It’s a little bit bigger. It has a gym and a pool. We’re debating if we should buy it, since it will be quite a while until our new build is done. Our house is just so small, there’s really just no room to invite friends. We feel bad for Hunter because we want her to comfortably have friends over, so we’re contemplating buying the house across the street just to get us by and not feel as squished. We never know what we’re doing. Whatever God tells us what to do, we do. Had you told me a year ago that we’d move to St. George, I would’ve never believed you.
I wanted to share this because sometimes we feel like we’re the only people who are in limbo or not sure what to do next. Joe and I are always bouncing from idea to idea and just go with what feels right for our family. So if you feel crazy or uncertain at times, you are not the only one!
. . .
Thank you for being here and supporting us every step of the way!
Another month down and I can’t believe it’s August! The kids start school next week so they’re getting ready for that! Today on the blog I’m sharing what I ordered from Amazon last month. It’s always random, but last month I ordered new workout wear, boat gear, and more! Check out all the details below.
I ordered this blue swimsuit because I thought it was so fun with the neon green bands! I ordered a size small, and it fits great. Under $40 and comes in a ton of different colors!
: SWIMMER HAIR PACKETS
I am continually buying these hair packets for my girls during summer. The packets help so their hair doesn’t turn green from all the chlorine! We shampoo their hair first, then use the packet, then shampoo again. It’s a game changer.
: BOAT CLEANER
Since we bought a boat, I’ve been on the hunt to find a good exterior cleaning product, and this Hot Sauce boat cleaner works great for hard water spots!! Definitely a must have if you have a boat.
: SWEATER SET
You guys know how much I love this Free People dupe sweater set from Amazon! I have it in the cream color but couldn’t resist ordering it in more colors! I ordered it in the pink, rust, AND deep brown color! It’s just that good. (I order size extra small and it fits great).
: WORKOUT TANK
I absolutely love this workout tank! I have it in a few colors, and just ordered the pale green last month (size small). It’s exactly like the Lululemon align tank dupe, but only 1/3 of the price! Comes in a ton of colors too.
I was in the need for a new makeup bag and absolutely loved the look of this one! It holds so much and is only $25.99! Perfect for traveling too. I also ordered this makeup brush holder that I thought would be perfect for traveling too!
: ROXY RASH GUARD + HAT
I ordered this black Roxy rash guard and Roxy hat for lake days! Absolutely love them both. Ordered a small in the shirt and it fits perfect!
: EGG HOLDER
I’ve seen so many people sharing about this egg holder, and I finally purchased it! Only $22.99 and holds 36 eggs!! Looks clean and organized in my fridge. 10/10 recommend!
: HOW TO TALK TO YOUR CHILD ABOUT SEX BOOK
Joe and I ordered this book because a friend recommended it. We’ve had the talk with Hunter and Hudson. Honestly, it’s an on-going talk with all our kids. We mentioned some things to Hayden when it’s been appropriate. So I just wanted to read this book for any tips on how to talk about it more in depth with her.
