Wow guys, it’s been a while hey? Some of you may know that I’m currently spending most of my time over at Woven Whimsy (if you haven’t yet, please head over, check it out and give it some love). This little blog has been on my mind recently, because I often still think of things…
Loving… picture rails {decor DIY}
Yay, a blog post that isn’t about babies! We moved into our home over 3 years ago, but it’s taken me this long to actually hang some pictures on the walls. Why? Because I have commitment issues. I love collecting prints and photos, but the thought of trying to decide on where to hang everything,…
Loving… Cloud + Co {Baby Brand 2}
I recently discovered yet another original and local baby brand which I love, called Cloud + Co (you can read about my first baby brand feature here). The owners say that they’re inspired by the Scandinavian aesthetic, and it shows in the carefully curated items for babies and kids. Each of the products could easily…
Loving… another birth story {Meeting Cara Faye}
It took me more than a year to write Evan’s birth story, so I’m hoping to improve on that timeline! It’s been a little over a month since we welcomed Cara Faye into our family, and I wanted to share our story of meeting her, especially since it was so different to Evan’s birth. When…

I think one of the most frustrating things about being pregnant in South Africa is the lack of maternity clothing options. I remember being so excited to buy my first “preggy” top when I was pregnant with Evan, but this was quickly overshadowed by a disappointment in the lack of availability and variety in local…
Loving… choosing a prenatal vitamin {not really}
When you fall pregnant, you’re suddenly inundated with choices that you have to make. Big decisions, like where you want to deliver your baby, who’s going to be your healthcare provider, what are you going to name your child? And these big decisions are mixed with millions of other decisions that you need to make…
Loving… a DIY Vertical Garden {Courtyard make-over part 2}
I wrote about the start of our our courtyard make-over a little while ago – since then I’ve been looking for a way to incorporate more greenery into this space. That was easier said than done, particularly since our courtyard is very hot and dry, and Cape Town is in the midst of one of…
