Cape Cod Momma

In January of 2020, I tried Botox for the first time. I was one of “those” people who had a whole lot of preconceived notions about Botox: it will make me look frozen, it hurts, it’s for old people (what is “old” by the way?), it’s super expensive…etc. etc. Then I was getting my hair done one day, and there was a pop up Botox …

This past weekend Elle and I packed our car and headed for an adventure in the wilderness at AutoCamp Cape Cod. Just to clarify that by wilderness, I mean, a stay at a beautiful, fully equipped, spotless, and quiet honestly, a very luxurious Airstream suite. AutoCamp Cape Cod is located in Falmouth, MA, about a 5 minute drive into the center of town, and 10 …

Two weekends ago, Bayside Resort in West Yarmouth hosted Elle and I, as well as my parents for a little staycation. We got so unbelievably lucky with the most gorgeous October weather, which made our stay that much more memorable. Bayside Resort is probably one of the most family friendly places to stay on Cape Cod, offering a year round indoor pool, seasonal outdoor pool, …

It’s raining, it’s pouring, it’s actually gusting 50mph, but the good news is, Elle and I are safe and sound at home, and get a day off from school/work. Shortly after breakfast, and a small dance party, we decided today was the perfect day to make some Halloween sugar cookies. I have tried many different recipes over the years baking with Elle, and this one …

I think many of my fellow mamas would agree that an outfit isn’t complete without the perfect pair of shoes. This statement stands true for our littles outfits as well. When it comes to choosing shoes for Elle, I have three criteria: they must be 1: comfortable, 2: they must be durable, and 3: they must be cute. We have several ‘go-to’ shoe brands, and …

I work in a school, and every school employee will tell you, February break is usually the time we pack our suitcases full of bathing suits and sunscreen, and as soon as that last bus leaves on Friday, it’s vacation time! New England is always cold in February, so a tropical vacation is usually in the works. But this year, given travel restrictions, safety precautions, …

I have been meaning to write this post for about a year and a half now. Elle’s room is by far my favorite one in the house, and while it’s been a work in progress since she transitioned out of a crib (at around 3.5 years of age! eek), I think it’s finally done…. until she decides she wants something different probably next week! Her …

Elle has acquired quiet the dolly collection over the last five years, and even though we have quiet a few, there is one brand that is my absolute go-to: the Götz collection. Pottery Barn Kids was how I was discovered these dolls, and their adorable little faces and outfits got me. Elle’s first one was actually the Götz Baby Doll Leila, exactly the same size …
