It’s time for another mushy love post, it’s my Wordbird’s birthday and I love him more than words can say. He’s a sweetheart, patient (with the exception of videogames) and kind and make me the best version of myself. I feel lucky every day to be with him. Danny has changed so much in the … More Happy Friday and Happy Birthday Danny!
I reached that point where new clothes are a must. This weekend I invested in some maternity pants and have to say I’m not sure why everyone doesn’t wear them at all times. Normally, I can’t wait to get out of pants because I either spend my time awkwardly pulling them up or feeling like … More 2nd Trimester Fashion
One of my favorite things about Detroit is that it’s always changing. If you’re away for a couple weeks, things are likely to be very different from when you return. It had been far more than a couple weeks since I last visited the Detroit Historical Museum and while I knew it had undergone a renovation, I … More Detroit Historical Museum
Following our anniversary (and Valentine’s Day) tradition we went to The Edison at the Dearborn Inn for dinner Tuesday. We were married at the Dearborn Inn and with all honestly it’s probably my favorite place in the world. It’s across the street from Greenfield Village with all the classic charm you want at a fraction … More Happy Friday!
This anniversary feels extra special because it’s our third year of marriage and first year as a family of three. We’re ready for it and excited but it’s a little bittersweet. Danny and I are great together. We bicker and he does things to drive me crazy but I love our life as the two … More The Big 3
Dana is a Detroit fashion blogger. I found her blog, The Closet Confessional, a couple years ago and am always impressed with her wardrobe choices. I also enjoy seeing which local spot will be the backdrop for her latest fashion shoot. This summer Dana announced that she was starting her own personal styling business and, as I do … More Life in Detroit: Dana Frost
For months I was looking forward to visiting The Flower House – a unique art installation in an abandoned home in Hamtramck. My work-buddy and go to garden guy, Paul, was going to go with me. I very naively put off purchasing tickets and now they are all sold out! I’m beyond disappointed because this … More Happy Friday
When I learned our baby was a boy, it was a challenge to figure out how I would connect with him. Girls I know, boys… not so much. Fortunately, it didn’t take me long – 24 hours – to come up with a nursery theme that incorporated many of my loves and helped me envision … More Nursery Inspiration: Captain America
I’m hoping I’m passed the halfway point now. I’m finally showing and it’s weird to see – I can’t imagine what it will be like next month! I love our little guy and can’t wait to hold him in my arms. In the meantime, I relish every kick and there are plenty to enjoy. The … More Month 5
The Detroit Mercantile Company is one of my favorite shops in the city. Located in Eastern Market, it’s perfect for my standard welcome to Detroit tour but I often stop in myself to check out their goods. In addition to being a shop, it’s also a rental venue and Chris and Emily had a beautiful wedding … More Detroit Mercantile Company
