Monday Catch Up

Hope you all had an amazing weekend!  Its been too long since I've sent a newsletter out. I feel like this time of year just flies by so fast!  But I'm getting back into the swing of things 🤎

A couple of weeks ago we had a really scary accident with my son Beckam. He fell off a hammock at a neighborhood get together and suffered a traumatic brain injury and bad concussion. I have spent the last couple of weeks helping him heal and spending time with family. He had his first full day of school last week which was a big step. I wanted to say thank you to everyone who showed their support, so many of you guys still DMing to check in on him and it means so much to our family! 

Last week was a big week in our house, we celebrated Ollie, Wes, Cody and my mom's birthdays!   Ollie is obsessed with lego and it was so fun to throw him a lego birthday!  It was his first time having a little party with his buddies and it was so much fun. Wes celebrated with a fun sleepover with some of his friends. They had a great week!

I am really excited to share that we have totally redone my blog website!  I've been really wanting to get back to my old school blogging days. Its so nice having everything shared in one place to reference back to!  You guys are the first to hear about this - stay tuned for the launch hopefully this month! :)

Hope you have a great week ahead - thanks for being here! xx Christine
Ollie's Lego Party

I loved how Ollie's lego themed birthday party turned out! I ordered most of the balloons and decor on Amazon so if your little one loves legos too I've linked it all here for easy reference. Ollie had the best time. The kids got to build legos and race lego cars. It was so fun getting to meet some more of his buddies from school too :)

I linked all of his party decor and shared a video of the set up here.
new amazon finds

I just got this half zip sweatshirt in a couple of colors and I love it!  I got it in gray and light blue in size medium. I also just got this leather tote bag - its super big and feels like great quality for the price!  Its perfect for work, travel or everyday mom bag. 

I've worn these gray sweatpants on repeat this fall! They're on sale 15% off right now. Full outfit linked here. 
makeup routine

I have so many sweet followers who sent the nicest compliments about my skin and makeup in all the photos I shared on instagram from the LTK events about what products I used! I rounded up the makeup items I used here.  This foundation (shade 140) has been my favorite for years now and its always one of my most asked about products! I like to put in one pump of this with the foundation and I add one pump of this (shade starglow) if I'm wearing it all day. It gives the perfect amount of coverage and glow. These drops are a good affordable alternative to the drops! I apply the foundation with this brush. I am also obsessed with this blush/bronzer stick. I've been wearing this lipgloss I also love this lipgloss. All makeup & dress linked here.
skincare routine

My skincare routine hasn't changed a ton over the years. I've shared all of the skincare products I use here. I still use this exfoliating toner every morning and night.  This vitamin C serum has been my holy grail skincare product for years! Skinceuticals recently launched this new P-TIOX product that I've been trying for a couple weeks now and I am LOVING it! Its a peptide powered serum for supercharged wrinkle correction.  I use this right after my CE Ferulic Vitamin C.  I rotate between these face creams - this one and this one. I am also obsessed with this face mask. It makes your face so cool and tingly and minimizes pores. I will share a full skincare blog post soon when my new website launches :)
hot wheels race track

Ollie got this hot wheels race track for his birthday and my boys are obsessed with it! They sit and play with this for so long - it was such a good find!  This would make a perfect Christmas present. You can see how it works in my video here.
exclusive LTK content

Just a reminder that every week I am sharing exclusive content in the LTK app!  Lots of outfit collages and all the outfit links you see me wearing on instagram are always in the LTK app first, so be sure to follow along there :)
