The Momiform ft. PinkBlush


Throughout the week I am always rushing around in the mornings to make sure all my kids are ready, fed, and at school on time.
So while they always look cute and put together, my outfits tend to be...lacking.
I usually have the momiform (mom uniform) of jeans, one of my husbands shirts, and whatever shoes I can slide on on my way out the door.
So I was pretty giddy when PinkBlush gifted me this cute striped top!

Baby Names I Love But Won't Be Using

 With our first three kiddos, names were decided so easily.
This time around we cannot definitively agree on ANYTHING.
(Also surprise! I am pregnant. Stay in the know HERE)
We have finally narrowed it down to two names
HALLELUJAH!!
Here are some of the names that have been adored by someone in our family but were ultimately vetoed.

Kid Designed Birthday Cake

Every year I make my daughters special birthday cakes based on what they love.
Peppa Pig.
Unicorns.
Anything their heart desires.
(HERE is a look at some of Ellie's cakes)
This year my little artist Ellie requested an elephant cake.
And since I make the cakes based on what they love I had the most "DUH!" realization.
Why don't I have Eloise design her own cake?

Emilie and the Cool Kids - Mougins

If you have been to the French Riviera, then you probably know of Emilie and the Cool Kids.(previously Emilie's Cookies)
If by some strange happenstance you didn't walk by one or eat there, Emilie's is a restaurant franchise that makes cookies, cupcakes, vegan desserts, etc.
They serve brunch and bagels as well for you savoury/salé lovers.
All of their locations along the Côte d'Azur have a cool atmosphere and staff (probably why they had the name change - much more on-brand now👌)

Today Emilie's opened up their Mougins location and we decided to hop on over to treat the girls to some sweet goodies.

Balade à Biot

Lately, we've been loving to take family walks through different towns and villages to burn of some of the girls' energy.
They sprint up and down cobblestoned hills while we stroll along behind them.
It is a nice way to see all the little side streets these gorgeous towns have tucked away.
This was our afternoon in Biot

France Finds: Annecy in the Winter (Travel Photos)

As you might already know, I live in a sunny seaside town in the French Riviera.
What you may not know is that I actually dislike hot weather and beaches 🙈
Blasphemy, I know.
I love cloudy weather, having all four seasons, and mountainous regions.
Do you know which town has all of those things?
(hint: it is in the title 😂)
Annecy.

Where To Eat In Annecy France

My hubby and I recently went on a lovely couple's getaway to Annecy, France.
Nestled in the snowy mountains, this alpine town is where skiers go after a long day on the slopes.
And how do they warm up after hours in the snow?
FATTY FOODS.
Raclette, Tartiflette, Fondue... I am drooling just thinking about it.
My hubby and I didn't partake in any winter sports, but we definitely ate as if we did.

Here are the amazing places we ate at during our weekend in Annecy:
