Who’s ready for a summer picnic and parade? I know we are!

I signed up for a YearCheer holiday subscription for the girlies last year, and it quickly became one of our very favorite parts of the holidays.

A few weeks ago Maddie and I teamed up with one of our favorite local mompreneurs, Jasmine of MerriMane, to share some of our local spots in downtown greenwich. MerriMane has been a favorite of ours since she launched just a few months ago- her sweet little fleeces the perfect combination of fashion and function for littles- so when she asked me to launch her “City Guide” series I couldn’t wait to show her around town.

There's something about celebrating the holidays with a baby that makes them so magically exciting again. Although I continued holiday traditions in my adult life- hanging stockings, watching Home Alone {incessantly}, mass on Christmas Eve- there's just a new excitement that comes with Christmas with a little one.

Happy Friyay, lovelies! I'm kicking off my holiday gift guides for Abigail Fox Designs with some goodies for those special people that make our lives a little easier-from teacher to babysitter to the hostess with the mostest, here's what I'll be gifting this year...

And just like that... Christmas time is here. Time flies when you're raising a tiny human! This month I'm super excited to be collaborating with a favorite local shop of mine, Abigail Fox Designs.
