I am so excited to share some photos of the boys shared bedroom!

When we moved into this house, there was a queen bed in here (very similar to this layout our previous house) and Theo was in the crib in the nursery.

In the fall we moved these custom upholstered twin beds in, and after the holidays we started letting Theo sleep in here. They’ve been in here together for almost two months, and so far it’s going better than expected. Hudson loves having someone in the room with him, and Theo just loves to sleep so he is truly happy in any scenario.

Fingers crossed we can keep this momentum, so far so good!

A year after moving in and four months after Miss Stella was born… her nursery is finally ready for her!

Most of the nursery did not change from Hudson to Theo to Stella. The boys are now sharing a room (I seriously love their big boy room, should be done soon!), so most of Theo’s things have moved over to his new space. The piece that transformed the room from Theo to Stella is this stunning rug from English Village Lane.

I knew I wanted to change the rug to something that would grow with her from baby to teen, and this one is IT. The entire process was so smooth and the quality is unmatched. I can’t say enough great things about it. If I get my way, this will be her childhood room rug forever. I just LOVE it, and it’s so sweet to think of ordering it when I was pregnant with her thinking about her teen years and what would last.

We are working with the same crib, changing table and stuffed animals from Hudson and Theo’s nurseries. I put pink velvet bows around the stuffed animals, added some pink trinkets to the shelves, and ordered this tableskirt for the round side table. It feels so similar to the boys room, with splashes of pink.

Little girl room, complete.

The iron shelves were in my bedroom as a girl and the pink Cadillac was a hand-me-down from my sister’s girls. I have a piece of art and a portrait of myself as a baby in Stella’s room, a photo of the original Stella (my great aunt), trinkets from my childhood room, and dresses of mine in her closet. I can’t fully express how special it has been to see these things in her room. My guys are my dream guys, and this little girl is a puzzle piece to my heart.

My mom painted the nameplate on the door, and most trinkets on the shelves are sentimental gifts from others.

Thank you so much for checking in and reading. More peeks into our home here. Talk soon! xo –

The sitting room off the kitchen now feels “complete,” and I love the cozy finished space. Most of these pieces came from our previous home, with the addition of this striped sofa and these swinging arm floor lamps from Ballard Designs.

Even though we don’t have a TV in this room and it’s attached to a much larger living space with a TV and fireplace… this is where we spend so much of our time. Christian really wanted it to feel more like a sitting room than a dining area, and he was right. When it’s not just our family of five, we eat in the dining room. But our nuclear family is typically eating at the kitchen island or Christian and I share our meal together at this small round table (a hand-me-down from my parents).

Credit goes to our designer, Maggie, who chose the furniture layout, striped fabric and floral pillows. As always, she was right!

I took these photos in November and am excited to be sharing them finally! At last, we are starting to be at a “complete” enough place with the interiors of our home (we moved a full year ago). We have been painting, wallpapering, designing our first lady nursery and renovating her bathroom, combining the boys to twin beds and renovating the boys bathroom, adding a laundry closet upstairs, turning a home office into a large his/her closet, finishing the scullery and refinishing the backyard sport court.

We still plan to tweak the fireplace mantle, build some sort of patio, and come up with a landscaping and exterior plan. That will all be for 2025 and 2026… hopefully.

The dining room was shared recently here. 

A mini six months in preview was shared here.

Even though we’ve been steadily working on this house for a full year, we are still waiting for a few finishing touches for some of the above projects. Bit by bit I’m photographing and sharing these spaces as they are complete. It feels so good!

I love having our homes documented here because it brings so much nostalgia to see our prior spaces. I love seeing which pieces have gone with us from place to place (this headboard has been in six homes since 2012!). I highly recommend photographing your homes at some point just so you can remember the feel of the rooms. If you are an interiors lover, it’s a sweet keepsake to have.

Other than adding the chandelier and a little bit of paint, we didn’t alter the primary bedroom (which was lovely to start).

It has been so much fun photographing our home during the holiday season! I don’t take photos with my big fancy camera as often now that video content is queen, and I forget how much fun it can be. Last year I skipped taking photos and sending holiday cards because our impending move made the season little too hectic.

This year I knew I wanted to capture our first Christmas in this house. I didn’t go all out, knowing I have less time on my hands right now working from home with a three-month-old. But I still pulled out the essentials, and it feels really special and cozy.

A few photos from the holidays in our previous home…

I heard someone ask once what their Christmas decor “theme” was. They said that most people pick a theme – snowmen, grinch, nativity, nutcrackers, Santa, candy canes, etc. Ours is definitely nativity and nutcrackers. Hudson, Christian, and I love The Nutcracker music and book. It wouldn’t feel like the season without these pieces!

One year we went somewhere tropical during Christmas and while beautiful, I really felt like I missed out on the traditional holiday season. I realized that I liked to be home in December. Hudson has really loved decorating with me this year. He loves the ornaments, the music, the trees, the stockings, Jerry the elf on the shelf… he has so much enthusiasm which is such a treat. Love that kid.

Merry Christmas season to you and yours. I hope you get lots of time logged by the sparkling tree in fuzzy socks sipping coffee. Thank you so much for reading – xo –
