Labor Day is just around the corner. Here are the things that have caught my eye (and I shopped some of these early so a few of these items are already on their way to me!) I’ll be adding to this post throughout the week so be sure to check back. P.S. My favorite rug and the lemon art in the photo above are included in the sale!

This post is long overdue and I’m so excited to share an updated version of our current favorite children’s books. The first time I shared books we were reading was this “Learning Tools” post when the kids were freshly three and one-and-a-half. Now, I have six year old, an almost five year old and a one year old (!) and each of those three beautiful babies absolutely love their books. Let’s dive in.

I don’t fall in the “pumpkins and bats” camp when it comes to Fall decor, but I do love small swaps to make our home feel cozier when September rolls around. We’re pretty committed to not purchasing any new furniture or big decor items until we’re no longer renting, so I pay close attention to what it is that that I love about other spaces that don’t scream Fall but give all the inspiration this time of year.

A question I receive every single week without fail is this: “Why are you guys still renting?” Usually it’s followed by “why don’t you just move?” And there is so much to unpack there. (That feels like half a pun.) As someone who loves interior design and has been planning our forever home for a decade, I always have interiors on my home and the desire to make a house our own again is always on my mind. Let’s dive in.
