ICYMI… here is a roundup of everything I’ve talked about this week!
UPDATES
We went to Nashville last weekend to visit Luke’s family since we couldn’t go for Thanksgiving. Luke’s parents met Liam right when he was born, but his grandparents and some of his siblings hadn’t met him yet. We were so excited to introduce Liam to his family! He met his cousin Noah who just turned one, and they loved each other! We are so excited that they are so close in age so they can grow up together!
We came back home to Knoxville on Sunday evening and had a busy week preparing to go to Naples, Florida, yesterday for my good friend Brandi’s wedding! We got a late start (typical of us, whoops!) and gave my dad some serious travel anxiety, but after our flights and a little fiasco with the rental car we made it safely! I was super worried about flying with Liam, but he actually did pretty well!! He ended up sleeping for most of the flight. We’ll see how the return trip goes in a few days!
My parents and grandmother came over on Monday for dinner and to help us decorate our Christmas tree. We made homemade buffalo chicken pizza, and it was AMAZING! One of you guys shared a kitchen hack: if you need to shred chicken, use a stand or hand mixer!!
I also got my nails done at my favorite salon in Knoxville, Soho Nails. They did a really cute Christmas design, and I love it!
The absolute HIGHLIGHT of our week: LIAM LAUGHED FOR THE FIRST TIME!!! I shared the video of him laughing on my stories (saved it to the “Liam 2” highlight bubble). Y’all, it was truly the best moment of my life. Right up there with our wedding day!
PRODUCTS + SALES
- I’ve been wearing my UGG boots a ton lately since it’s been so cold. Luke thinks that they’re “UGG-ly”, but I actually ordered the UGG minis for Christmas because I love them so much! They are truly so cozy and warm!
- You guys have been LOVING this faux fur-lined denim jacket from Posh Appeal Boutique!! It has been restocked 3 times now, and y’all keep selling it out!! I’m wearing a size small for reference. You can use my code LAURA25 for 25% off the entire site through December.
- I shared all of the details of my MYX Fitness bike on stories this week. Y’all, I love it so much! You have the option order just the bike with a heart rate monitor or a package that comes with a mat, 6-piece set of weights, foam roller, and resistance band. The touch screen on the bike is big and clear and it easily swivels around so you can see it for floor exercises like weight training, yoga, meditation, and so much more. I highly recommend it!! You can use my code LAURA for $150 off + free shipping ($250 value)!
- I also shared all about my Pura smart home fragrance diffuser! We put the Frasier Fir scent in next to the Christmas tree and it truly makes our home feel like we have a real tree. You can easily adjust it with an app on your phone to set timers, scent strength, and more, and it notifies you when your scent is low so you can order new ones! You can use my code LAURAG20 for 20% off all seasonal fragrances and an additional 30% off if you subscribe. You will experience a 1-2 week shipping delay if your order includes a device just because of high holiday demand, but I promise you it’s worth the wait!!
- I used my deep waver on my hair for the first time in a while. It would make a GREAT Christmas gift for your sister or friend if you’re still on the hunt! Be sure to check out my DEEP WAVER highlight bubble on my Instagram page for a tutorial! Used it in the photo below from last night & here is a link to my FAVORITE mom jeans I wore also! They run a tiny bit big if anything – wearing size 2.
- I got these Spanx faux leather motto leggings in the mail and they are so soft and cozy! These would be another great gift idea for the cozy chic girl or mom in your life, or even yourself! You can see them in the photo above with the Posh Appeal jacket!
XOXO,
Laura Elizabeth
