You guys, there are pumpkins on my porch—woah! I guess that means it really is fall, huh? We still have temperatures in the 90s here in Nashville so the fall feeling hasn’t fully kicked in, but I bet it will within the next few weeks. We did a little family photo shoot recently and the above is a little moment between my “mini worrier” and me. I started doing that worried brow look within the first few months of being born and I still do it anytime I’m lost in thought, so it’s funny to see that Lola immediately did it as well for her thinking/concerned face too. Here’s what else I am loving this week!
1. I recently started watching the first season of the show “Great News” (Tina Fey produces it), and I think it’s a lot of fun! I was sad to see that I guess it got cancelled this summer after just two seasons (I haven’t seen the second one yet).
2. Tried this line of 9-free nail polish this week (also vegan and cruelty-free) and it’s great! This color is really pretty and the bottles are gorgeous if you’re the kind of girl who likes to display her polish.
3. Eyeing this for the movie/snuggle nights about to hit us as fall progresses.
4. In an effort to make a little more breathing room in my life, I decided to take a break from my personal social media accounts this month. I have to say that so far it’s been really nice to have a few less inboxes to check or things that “need” my attention during my time with my family or in my few hours of free time. I don’t think I’ll quit forever, but it’s a good reminder to think about who-is-controlling-who in your life and create a structure so that those outlets are fun and helpful rather than draining and demanding.
5. I was totally ogling this dresser a few weeks ago—so fun!
6. Suuuper soft high-waisted jeans for fall—yes, please!
7. It’s on my list this week to find a little farm nearby that does all the pumpkin patch/hayride stuff so we can take Lola soon. I would l love to take her where they have a little petting zoo so you can meet/feed some farm animals, I’m pretty positive she would LOVE it and I get so excited just thinking about it!
9. It’s September so let the season of gorgeous coats begin!
10. Maybe my next dining chairs? Love the aqua color!
Don’t forget you can keep up with our favorite items on our wish lists on Pinterest and our blog—we update them weekly, so check back for all the goodies! Hope it’s a little cooler and more fall-like wherever you are this week! xo. Laura
P.S. And because I know someone will ask, here’s the link to Lola’s romper and my dress is an old Zara dress (there’s a similar one here).

I’m both dreading and excited for fall at the same time. Summer is my favourite weather and I can’t stand the cold, but I also can’t wait for all the winter squashes!
I think it’s a good idea to take a break from social media accounts every now and then. Enjoy your downtime! 🙂

Check out Noble Springs Dairy in Franklin! I haven’t actually been out there but their cheese is amazing & they do have fall activities.
Such cute pictures!

I love how you found a pretty much exact replica of your dress on Amazon! Serious skill (also I’m totally buying it now).

Hi Laura! Lola’s shoes are adorable! Where can I find them?
Also in regards to having an Instagram break… sometimes I just put my phone on flight mode for a few days at a time.. I did it for two weeks initially and I just felt so amazing from the break – you reconnect with yourself. All the best x
Good for you for taking a social media break. I need to do the same! Not easy for sure!
That dresser is a DIY waiting to happen–seriously!
Check out Lucky Ladd Farm! They have events all the time and I’ve heard they’re great for kids. Mine is a little too young still but this time next year we’ll be all over that!
