Hey Friends!
🙂
As some of you may know, Steven and I welcomed our beautiful little boy, Cole Steven O’Brien, into the world on June 8th 2020. This pregnancy sure was one wild ride thanks to COVID-19 but it was all worth it because we couldn’t imagine feeling more joy and love than we do right now.
We are so excited to share some photos from Cole’s newborn shoot with the incredibly talented Nydia from Nydia Rose Photography. Not only was Nydia easy to work with and professional but she made us feel super comfortable. We would highly recommend her if you are local and looking for a newborn photographer.
*All of the photos featured in this post are by Nydia. For more information or to contact her please visit her website nydriarose.com.
All outfit and prop details are listed at the end of this post.

![Tell me if you can relate, if not keep scrolling, it’s cool. If you are friends or not friends with a guy name Steven do you automatically pronounce his name Ste-fennnnnn like Kristen from Laguna Beach? Or am I the only one who still does? 😂 My husband doesn’t think it’s cute anymore but it’s one of the reasons I married him so I could contuine to say his name like that. 🤣 jk jk but also not ☺️ . . . Speaking of the beach, is anyone else in need of a little getaway? I would probably take a trip to the islands or somewhere warm. I know we’re only like 19 days into fall but whose counting ☀️🏝 Anyways, yesterday I shared my favorite travel essentials to help make life easier on the blog which includes this @beis weekender bag. ✈️👜 but comment below and tell me what place(s) you are dying to visit! ♥️ ••• [link in bio for the post] 💻](https://scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/72439368_1297736197053572_5457801214397549568_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=Ud3jlj-CAe8AX9ETtxY&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com&oh=1a74e4d578406157680fbd5b0ffba155&oe=5F55341B)
![To say I am obsessed with this wall makeover is an understatement. As you know, I’m all about the little details so I wanted to find a way to display our wedding invites in a chic and classic way. I found these frames at @homegoods for about $17 each. If you are as obsessed with your wedding invites as much as I am and are looking for a way to display them, this gallery style look is so beautiful! . .

![Did I ever tell you the story of how we met? Well it’s a love story for the ages... ♥️ . . jk. actually he was mean to me and I was all like who the ֆɦɨṭ is this guy . . Okay, so, he was only like playful mean but to this day I still tease him about it when people ask how we met . . As you know [if you’ve been around since the beginning] my website started out as a blog documenting my personal training journey and fitness competitions. [see the second pic] . . And one of my first clients [when I was a personal trainer at Bally’s] not only ended up becoming a good friend [hi @chrissieeex ] but also set us up when we went out for her birthday back in 2011. That night he was playfully picking on me being a trainer but he was also the one standing outside while it was snowing talking to me for hours so I knew he was into it 😉 . . So here we are 2,847 days later and with one wedding anniversary under the belt and I still adore him just as much as the first night we met. 💍 For proof I included this photo from our one year anniversary weekend this past September/the mini wine tour we gifted ourselves with because we love wine🍷 ♥️ ps- we both forgot to wear our wedding rings during the wine tour 😂 but we love each other . . but enough about us, what’s your dream date or dream wedding destination? Or just tell me how you and your significant other met. 🥰✨](https://scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/70600742_2797943446906576_378114120096593191_n.jpg?_nc_cat=109&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=NlU85PSdSccAX8Kipo_&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com&oh=902b3388cc04e74ab657e999016db547&oe=5F51FEDA)
![Cake cake cake cake cake, oh baby I like it, it’s so excited 🎶 Does anyone else sing @badgalriri ‘birthday cake’ instead? Pretty sure since this song came out it’s replaced happy birthday for me or at least this is what I sing to myself each year. Anyone else? 😂🎂 • • • Anyway my birthday was Friday and I just recovered from my margarita intake and wanted to share this amazing cake my husband got for me. #swoon ••• Can you guess what cake flavor is on the inside? First person to guess right gets a mystery prize [I’m not playing - check my story for a sneak peak]. We take birthdays very serious in this house! 🎉♥️](https://scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/69465394_2422987654447821_8501078207441997948_n.jpg?_nc_cat=102&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=o8pRwBeNa_EAX-aA_ym&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com&oh=6e4ef9f2cbd0d2d11055811dc03cc9a8&oe=5F52E84B)
![Is butter a carb? 🍞🥞🥖🥐 Can a lip gloss be included in #nationallipstickday ?🧐💄 • • Also, I swear there was a butter emoji at some point in time in the land of emojis. Right? Oh welI, I gave you all the carb emojis I could find because who doesn’t love a mean girls quote and because I watched it for the millionth time today so here we are 🤷♀️ • • • Back to national lipstick day though, who doesn’t love a good lipstick [or gloss]? In honor of this day, I decided to tag some of my favorite grotsky little byotches. These products are either always in my bag or within arms reach so if you’re in the market for some new lips, these products are worth it and some are currently 40% off👌💁♀️ Before you sprint over to my IG story, drop a comment below and tell me your faves so I can casually stalk some new products for my collection.
