Life Lately with the Little

Hey, hey!

Reese's Pumpkins

The Halloween candy has been purchased (Reese’s Pumpkins and an M&M variety pack) and right now I’m just trying to pace myself on the candy eating so that there’s some left for the trick or treaters!

I’m seriously so excited to show you guys Finn’s Halloween costume. I think you’re going to love it! ๐Ÿ™‚

Here are some of our recent adventures.

Tennessee Mountains

We spent last weekend in the Tennessee mountains for weekend three of my yoga teacher training at Vida Hot Yoga. The drive between Asheville and Kingsport is stunning.

Vida Hot Yoga

This weekend we covered things like warm up sequencing, the five koshas, assisting, how to cue and types of cues and much more. I love this studio and my group of teacher trainees so much!

Related…in both photos above I am wearing Lululemon’s Swiftly Long Sleeve. It’s a cool weather staple for me!

Renaissance Patisserie

We had a really fun Monday back in Charlotte that included a lunch date with a friend at the new CAVA location in Charlotte (I’m a fan!). Afterwards, we were running an errand when I spotted a new to me French cafe. Oh friends, get ready to see much more from Renaissance Patisserie. It is the cutest spot and their menu is wonderful. I picked up two pastries to go and they were gone in under 24 hours. By far the best I have had in Charlotte in all my time living here.

Binxy Baby

The grocery store is one of our favorite adventures! (For real.) It’s become so much more enjoyable since Finn hangs out in his Binxy Baby. I can’t even tell you how many comments we get on it every time we shop!

Oh and this was Finn’s first time wearing shoes in his five months of life. He totally doesn’t “need” them but I had these cute Adidas and I didn’t want him to outgrow them before he got a chance to wear them!

Golden Retrievers

The weather is so perfect for long dog walks. I am so grateful for the cool and crisp temperatures because my Sullie girl is back to her normal walking self. This summer she frequently “walk striked” due to the heat and humidity but we’ve been going 3-4 miles with no problems lately. She’s doing pretty good for 12!

Bob Revolution

Finn has liked the transition out of using the infant car seat adapter and into the actual BOB stroller. He’s got much more room to move around. I can’t believe that after all of those months of having to avoid the heat and use a stroller fan that I now have to bundle him up.

Annnnddd so much of our days look like this. This little one is such a wiggle worm these days but loves to be held and close most of the time. I’ll take it while I can get it! ๐Ÿ™‚

Signing off.

Potato and Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Potato and Broccoli Cheddar Soup

This potato and broccoli cheddar soup is a warm hug in a bowl. It’s a mash up of potato soup meets broccoli cheddar soup, and makes for a creamy, hearty and cheesy bowl that has just enough broccoli in it to make you feel like you’re getting your veggies in for a complete meal. POTATO [...]
