My Lincoln turned 3 earlier this month. He’s been obsessed with Spider-Man lately, and who can blame him. Spider-Man is pretty amazing. Naturally, this meant that his birthday theme could be nothing else but Spider-Man! As always, I try to keep things muted and simple with children’s parties. I really wanted each child to have a mask to wear so […]
Simple Black and White Gender Reveal Party
Summer is coming to an end here, and I’m not ready! As I try to steel myself for a busy fall and winter season, I’ve been trying to get better organized. One of the tasks I am tackling is organizing all my photos from various shoots and events. I came across the folder of photos from the simple black and […]
Minimalist Everyday Diaper Bag Essentials
I’m a wannabe minimalist as I have mentioned before. Full disclosure. I don’t actually own a diaper bag. Even after two babies, I still don’t see the need for one. I use one of my designer purses and all my everyday diaper bag essentials fit perfectly into it. Is it absolutely crazy that I use my Louis Vuitton Evora purse […]

Red Egg and Ginger Celebration for Henri’s 100 Days
Last month, Henri turned 100 days old! We celebrate this milestone with something called a Red Egg and Ginger Party. What the heck is the significance of 100 days?? In East Asian cultures, when a baby lives past a certain number of days, it signifies that they will live to see their first birthday and beyond. Morbid? Sure, a little […]

The outpouring of love and support is overwhelming, and I’m encouraged to see women come forward who have had similar experiences. I believe it helps […]
The Realness of Becoming a Mom of Two
It was Mother’s Day this past weekend, and it got me thinking more about my journey so far as a mom of two. It’s been four months and some since becoming a mother of two to my sweet boys. I have to be honest with you guys, becoming a mom of two kicked my ass. Emotionally. Physically. Mentally…all the asses. […]
Terrible Twos – A Monster Birthday Theme
I can’t even believe it is already the end of October beginning of December! As soon as the first of September hits, our household spirals into a whirlwind! At least every 2 weeks there’s a birthday or holiday to plan for and celebrate. This goes on right through to the end of December! And I don’t even have school-aged children…oh […]
Life Update
I’m joining the quarantine babies club and so happy to announce that we’re expecting Baby Badau 2.0! We’ve actually been planning to be pregnant again for a while now, but as I now know full well, you really can’t plan these things – much to my type-A personality’s chagrin. Life just works out exactly how it is supposed to, and […]
