Fall To Do’s & Recent Finds


Happy Friday friends! My parents have arrived from Florida and will be here for the next 10 days and I can’t even tell you how happy that makes me! Not only have I missed them so much, but Sophia has already had so many changes since my mom left, I know they are just as happy to spend time with her! With the start of my absolute favorite season, I wanted to share a few things I’m excited to do with Sophia in tow. Of course she’ll be far too little to remember any of this, but it’s her first fall and that needs to be documented!







Apple Picking & Pumpkin Patch || Gary and I have gone apple picking since we started dating and we’re both excited to introduce Sophia to this Fall tradition. We wont be venturing too far out this time around, but hoping to hit a little farm near the city this coming weekend – weather permitting. We’re no doubt going to have a lot of apples, so I’ll plan on making my sister’s delicious apple pie. 



Little Monkey



Little Unicorn



Little Lion – she is a Leo after all!







Trick or Treat || Our neighborhood has a really great block party for Halloween and all the kids take to the street and go house to house to get candy and show off their costumes. One of the things I do while Sophia eats in the middle of the night is browse costumes on Amazon and I think I’ve narrowed it down to three. Which one would you choose?


Thanksgiving last year and little Sophia was already cooking!





Thanksgiving Festivities || Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday and I’m so excited to have Sophia experience her first one – even though she won’t be enjoying any of the food! We’ll be celebrating at my sister’s house this year and once again my parents are flying up for the occasion. If I haven’t mentioned this before, my parents are going to be moving up to Boston in January of next year and to say we are all thrilled to finally be reunited would be an understatement!





Something Navy Collection || I wasn’t planning on shopping the Something Navy collection at Nordstrom, but after seeing this cute beanie, I decided it would be great for winter and here in New England you can always use a winter hat! I went with Light Heather Grey, but it comes in 3 other colors. 




Circle Leopard Buckle Belt || Popped into Gap and saw the cutest belt & it’s currently on sale for $21! I will be wearing it all Fall long!



Perfect Doormat || If this is not the most perfect Fall doormat – I don’t know what is! Now I need to convince Gary to be okay with being “basic” LOL! 



I hope you all have an amazing weekend! See you back here Monday for a little weekending!

    Aw, such fun traditions that will only get sweeter with a baby. Walker and Knox were both lions for their first Halloween’s, so my vote is on the lion! 😉 Enjoy your time with your parents!

    Oh what a tough decision with the costumes. All three are darling, but I think I like the unicorn and the monkey the best. I don't think I can choose between those two! And how wonderful that your parents are moving up to be near y'all!!!! I know you are just ecstatic!!

    Oh my goodness, those costumes! They're all precious, but I think I'd go with the unicorn for your sweet girl! I'm so excited for all the fun fall things, too, and I'm drooling over that picture of a cider donut haha #pregoproblems 😉 happy Friday!

    I'm totally with you on documenting and enjoying their firsts, even if they don't remember them at all! And those Halloween costumes are so cute, but I think that the unicorn or the monkey might be my favorite! And hooray for your parents moving back! That's going to be so awesome to have your entire family so close!

    Hope you have a blast with your parents in town. I'm sure it will be a great help for you as well. The costumes you narrowed down would all look so cute on Sophia but my absolute favorite is the unicorn. Have you chosen the one yet? Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis

    There is just something so refreshing about Fall! I LOVE all of those costumes but especially the lion and monkey. First holidays with little babes is so much fun! This will be our daughters first Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas also!

    Fall is my absolute favorite, and while the little babes won't remember it- there's always the pictures to look back on and great memories for us 🙂 I personally love the little lion costume best, but she will look precious in any of them. LOVE the hat you picked up from Nordstrom. Hope your weekend is fabulous with your parents 🙂

    I just mentioned in today's post that we did the same with Aviah when she was about 3 months, so around the same age. I agree, even if they don't remember, it's nice to have some photos for us to look back on and for them to see when they're older, too! Thanksgiving is also one of my favorite holidays and even more fun with the little ones! We got a onesie that said baby's first on it and around that time she was able to have a little taste, so we just dapped our finger and let her taste the sweet potatoes and her facial expression was priceless, haha! Definitely something to look forward to. By the sounds of today's post, you enjoyed your weekend and I hope you continue to enjoy the rest of the week with the fam!

    XO,
