Disney Packing List + 5 Days in Orlando Itinerary

January 24, 2020

Disney Packing List + 5 Days in Orlando Itinerary

I won't lie, I'm partially blogging my Disney World packing list so I have it for the future. I read list after list before we went, plus scoured the internet for the cutest toddler Disney outfits. Now I want to share my info so you all have it for your future trips, too. Note: I had this post fully written out and ready to go, and totally forgot about it! I wrote it right after our trip to Orlando in the spring. I'm not exactly a newbie to Disney - I've been a few times, including once …

Best of 2019: Travel Edition

We love to travel, so looking back on all of our 2019 travels was so fun! It also made me realize that we forgot to add a few ornaments to our tree this year. (It's one of our family traditions to get an ornament when we go somewhere new.) Two of my forever-popular posts are how to fly with a baby and how to fly with a toddler. If you have kids (or will soon), I hope those posts are helpful to you! We started traveling with E when she was just a couple of months old, and I honestly think that …

Maine Family Vacation

August 29, 2019

Maine Family Vacation

I last vacationed in Maine around the age of 10, so it had been a hot minute. But I found a new appreciation for Kennebunkport when we visited in August with my family! My dad has been trying to make a family vacation happen for a while (aside from our normal summer trips to the Cape), so we were all pretty psyched when this worked out. Granted, my older sister had a baby the prior week and was unable to join us for our Maine vacation, we're still counting it a win! I was hoping for nice …

Our Favorite Sedona Hiking Trails

August 19, 2019

Our Favorite Sedona Hiking Trails

Before we visited Arizona in May, we prepared for a true family hiking trip. We bought a backpack kid carrier specifically for this trip (we got this one). To prepare for the Sedona hiking trails, we took E on local hikes, and we planned out which trails we wanted to check out that were supposedly family friendly. We planned to do one day trip to the Grand Canyon, and all other hiking was local to Sedona. Our hiking was mostly the two of us plus E (20 months old) in our kid carrier. She …

Our Harvard Square Staycation

August 3, 2019

Our Harvard Square Staycation

When we initially talked about our renovation (and living with our families), we also talked about taking a staycation here and there. I don't know why we haven't until now, but last weekend we stayed in Harvard Square (in Cambridge, just outside of Boston). It was so needed, and I want to plan another soon! We chose to stay at The Charles Hotel, one of our favorite spots. (When T and I first met, it was at a work event at The Charles. Our first date was just down the street at a …
