Funny story from this week. Greta is fiercely independent and social. She loves playing with friends and making new friends and inviting everyone she sees over for dinner. We love her for this and I'm even a little envious of her social skills at such a young age. We have pretty strict rules to protect her that […]

The deck got finished yesterday evening! Well, mostly finished. We found we were missing the bottom of the railings, but the deck part is d-o-n-e and we are beyond thrilled with the way it turned out. Our house sat on the market for a long time in part due to the small backyard and it […]

We had the Pittsburgh kitchen's reno timeline shrink a little bit. Originally we thought we'd have 9 days to execute the renovation, but that actually included 2 travel days. So that's really only 7 days. But then, there will be 2 days of styling, shooting and filming commercials of the final space. So then it […]

Do you ever just stop and realize how time is flying by so quickly? So quickly! I had a lot of those moments this week. I think Greta reminds me often of how I used to just wait and wait for things to happen. Six seems to be the age of always wanting and waiting for something […]

Maybe it's because I can go outside with barely any notice or that my windows are almost always propped open instead of shut! and […]

I've always been a busy-body, a planner and a bit of a workaholic, and then a couple years ago, Chris pulled me aside and said, "We never do anything spontaneous!" Guilty. I'm the person that doesn't like surprises or straying from the plan. But at that moment, I looked at the calendar and said, "How […]

This week was hectic. We did some major spring cleaning, which always feels fantastic. We had a big, exciting photoshoot that will come out in late summer. And then we got a knock on the door from the city that that our house had used 12,000 gallons of water in 4 days. Commence panicking. We […]

What a week! The Lowe's Spring Makeover in Long Island last weekend was so intense, challenging and fun. We lucked out and got the absolute best homeowners that we instantly clicked with. I've been putting together the post all week, so look for that early next week! Although you may have caught this sneak peek […]

I've been thinking for quite some time that I'd love for there to be away to bring more personality into this blog in a casual way. We could share and chat about what we're reading or wearing or seeing or something we bought our kids that I just HAVE to tell someone about. Weekend plans. […]
