Well, somehow it happened again…another month flew by. We’ve got some fun things lined up for May, so I’m looking forward to diving head first into the new month.

Do you watch The Handmaid’s Tale on Hulu? A new season started this week! Mike and I can’t wait to watch it, but we’re going to try to hold off until there are a few more episodes. Speaking of shows, I finally started watching Summer House on Bravo and don’t know why I waited so long. I love a good trashy reality show at the end of a long day, so it’s been fun to have something new to entertain myself with.

I just started using this new lash primer this week and am liking it. I still love Lash Paradise, but this new one is cool because it’s a primer and a lash serum in one. I’ll be curious to see if I notice a difference in my lashes after a few weeks of using it.

Mike and I (mostly Mike) have been working out in the yard a bit the last couple weeks and it’s making me really wish I was better with plants. I tend to kill them, mostly because I forget to water them. I would love to be able to have a little herb garden or something to tend to, but I feel like I’d really need to commit to it. I don’t like spending money on plants for them to just die within a couple weeks because I’ve neglected them!

I grabbed this little blow-up pool at Target this week for summertime and it’s already been used! It’ll be nice to have something to hang out in during the summer heat with Liam outside.

Items Mentioned This Week

Target – Minnidip Pool: Liam (and me!) have been enjoying cooling off in this!

Target – High Rise Jean Shorts: I have these in a few colors. They are on the thinner side, but that’s what makes them so comfortable!

Madewell – Tiered Dress: I’ve been loving this dress! It’s super comfortable and flowy.

Lou & Grey – Softblend Lounge Set: My most reached for lounge set!

Target – Canister: These are technically bathroom canisters but I used them to decorate a nook in my bedroom and love the look!

Amazon – Air Fryer: I didn’t know what I was missing out on until I got this! So far I’ve made a few meals and side dishes and all have turned out great!

Amazon – Vase Set: Love these vases! They are affordable and I love the look, especially for spring! Also grabbed this one as well.

Styled an empty wall in our room this week! You can find the link to those items here.

Shared my favorite gold necklaces here! The ones you can’t find linked are from Elisabeth Ashlie.
