Really trying to appreciate this time when it's just me and her these days. Less than a month to go before my due date and I'm exhausted and she's challenging me more than ever, but still. At least for now I can still put on some Disney music videos and we can cuddle up on the couch. Ps. More pics coming soon to the blog from our maternity session with @elizabethmessina šŸ˜ dress from @shoptilden

Is it just me or does this feel like the longest winter of all time? I may need to start having flowers in my house every week to cope. Thankfully I snagged a few this week from @nataliebdesigns @jennikayne šŸ™ŒšŸ¼ (at Stanford Shopping Center)

When I was a mere baby at 25 I made my way to NYC for the first time. I was working for another photographer. He shot runway each season. I begged him to let me come. After a few seasons he gave in. It was on that trip I got the NYC bug. The glitz, glam, sexiness, and non stop energy this city has bit me hard. I also met this fancy magazine editor on the trip and we became fast friends. Everything about her was fancy. Her style was incredible, she had two cell phones, and she did the European double kiss greeting. And she wore red lipstick everyday. I wanted to be just like her in every way. She just had that je ne sais quoi. She was a woman. At the end of the trip I sheepishly walked into a Sephora--a store I had never walked into at that point--and bought my first red lipstick. IT WAS @narsissist NARS matte lip pencil in Cruella. It was a tiny little tube of makeup. But putting it on made me feel like a whole new girl. No it actually made me feel like a woman. To this day I don't leave the house without it. And whenever I put it on I think of that first NYC trip that seemed to change everything for me. #verilyredlipchallenge šŸ“· @tuttidelmonte

It felt like I was walking through Narnia this week as I traipsed through Central Park with my friend. It was frrrrreezing, snowing sideways, with gusts of wind pushing us through the park. But even still it was like we were giddy school kids filled with wonder. Friends life can get crazy, but let's always create space for moments of play and wonder. šŸ™ŒšŸ¦„šŸ™ šŸ“· @sarakerens

If you're looking for a perfect little spot for a girls getaway weekend or just a fun weekend trip in CA, we loved the Ojai Rancho Inn šŸŒæ rustic cabin vibes and a little fireplace and free coffee in the morning in the lobby šŸ™ŒšŸ¼ (at Ojai Rancho Inn)

"One thing people may or may not know is that Iā€™m actually half Guatemalan! A love for my heritage is the true reason behind starting @nenaandco." So excited to be sharing the #bosslady @ali_hynek on @therefinedwoman today
