White maternity jeans and stripes

Outfit details:

White jeans: Gap maternity 

Grey tank: Gap maternity

Stripe top: Target

Sneakers: New Balance

Diaper Bag: Timi and Leslie

Spring is here and I am so happy about that fact! It's a great time of year becuase I can wear light layers and not be too hot or cold. I love these distressed, white maternity jeans I bought from Gap last fall. They were super cheap ($5) becuase it was the end of the season and they just happened to be my size! Don't you love it when that happens?!

 This is an easy outfit to throw on and still feel put together. You could also wear white jeans with a military jacket, moto-jacket or trench coat. Just have fun playing with different looks! But, if all else fails, wear a denim jacket. It's classic and goes with everything. 

Having a few pairs of comfy, cute, maternity jeans that you feel good in are important wardrobe staples to invest in. If you find a fit you like, buy them in another color. You will definity get your money's worth from each pair throughout your pregnancy. The better I feel in my maternity jeans the more

I will wear them! Plus, I will wear them in future pregnancies. But, you can always consign your maternity jeans if your done using them!

So, my beautiful, fellow pregnant mama's out there; you can still feel chic and put together in your clothes at 32 weeks! Cause let's face it when your bump is that big, you can't touch or see your toes anymore, and getting up from a seated position is no longer a simple task, you don't always feel super attractive in what little wardrobe you have at that point. But, investing in a few interchangeable maternity pieces that you love, will help make you feel more confidant with your ever-changing body! Just remember that God has created you as a prefect, amazing, unique, woman :) What a beautiful, freeing truth!!

Our family vacation highlights

We had an awesome opportunity to go down to Florida to visit family for our spring break this year! It's was much needed time away for us as a family to relax, soak up the sun, and enjoy each other! It was so fun for us to watch our son explore the beach, play in the pool and just run around outside in the warm temperatures. He LOVED it down there! 

Here are a few of the highlights of our trip:

Drake enjoyed digging in the sand (took him a bit to get use to the sand, but then loved it, especially throwing it in his own hair)

Father and Son having fun in the sand

Drake loved exploring everything!! This boy has no fear!!

30 weeks pregnant!! Baring my bump on the beach. Baby girl liked the warm sun :)

He was fascinated by the water

Sunset family walks. We did a lot of walking which felt great to me getting lots of exercise! 

Mommy and Daddy had some alone time  at the pool! Brian and I had a few opportunity's for "just us" time during naps and a date night, when Papa watched our little man. It was so nice!!

Celebrated my 32nd birthday with a beautiful view and yummy, fresh, seafood! It was a wonderful way to spend my birthday. 

Reflecting back in our vacation week I am so thankful for the opportunity to travel, especially for our son! It is good for him to see new places (although he has been there before, but can't remember since he was only  3 months old at the time). It is so important to my husband and I that we expose our kids to new experiences, even when it takes little more effort getting there. Traveing with a toddler is no easy task, but the reward far out weights the challenge! Drake loves to fly and it's because we have traveled  several times since he has been born. 

The time away for us as a family is so crucial. It's important for us to relax, away from the streasors of work, and just have some fun together. Life is to short not to!! It is a time to really enjoy each other and make memories! We make it a priority to have family vacation time at least once or twice a year.

God has blessed our family immensely this year and we are so thankful for all that has been given to us!! Thanks for following along on this journey with us :)

Leather and Lace maternity look

Outfit details:

Leather (faux) leggings: Anthroplogie

Lace top: Clothed in Grace 

Jacket: Banana Republic 

Leopard flats: Norstrom Rack

I love pairing unexpected things together in an outfit. Leather and lace are a nice contrast and can go well with each other! A lace top off-sets the edgy, tough, vibe of leather leggings. Don't be afraid to mix textures and patterns!  It helps bring interest and fun to an ensemble. 

Leather (or faux leather) is a trend I have loved the past several years! They are fun and unexpected. They certainly are not your typical "mom jeans"! I found these leggings recently at Anthroplogie and LOVE them!! They fit great and were a surprising find for maternity pants. Yes, you can still rock cute, edgy pants even when your almost 8 months pregnant...all you mama's out there!! If I have to wear leggings in pregnancy, I figured they should be fun and still feel stylish :)

Blessings,

Sarah

How cute is this Ikat print top? It's from my friend Stephanie's online boutique,  The Goldfish Boutique. I love the lace detail on the sleeves and how perfectly it fits over the baby bump at 29 weeks! It's a fun pop of color and print for spring.

All black maternity style

You can't go wrong with wearing all

black! It's elegant, slimming, and goes with everything. 

Leggings are also a girls best friend, especially when your 7 months pregnant! I got these leggings at Costco, of all places. They have a faux leather finish on the front side and are super comfy. Did I mention they were only $14?! I love a good deal, and always keep an open mind when shopping anywhere! If it's cute and fits me well I ignore the brand name! 

Adding a fur vest will dress up any outfit, add texture, and make a statement. Even to a simple, all black ensomble. Give this look a try!! 

Outfit details:

Tunic: Clothed in Grace

Faux Fur Vest: Thrifted

Leggings: Matty M

Boots: Michael Kors

Necklace: Stitch Fix
