Happy Monday & Happy October friends! I have exactly one month left to my maternity leave and it’s very bittersweet! Hard to believe that our little one is so close to being 2 months old! This is definitely a picture heavy post, but I’m loving my camera on my iPhone so much that I just can’t help it!
Since my parents were with me on Friday, I had a chance to get out on my own and enjoy sometime at where else, but Target! Of course everything I bought was for Sophia, but it was nice to stroll around and relax a bit! I also stopped into Sephora next door and picked up this Summer Friday jetlag mask that totally lives up to the hype and the Kopari coconut lip balm another product that lives up to the hype.
My mom almost pushed us out of the house to go to dinner and have a little date night! We tried a new to us restaurant and it was probably the worlds fastest night out because we left at 5:00 and were back by 6:15, but it was so enjoyable. No surprises that the majority of our conversations revolved around Sophia! I also texted my mom about 5 times asking if Sophia was sleeping, crying, etc?!
Saturday was truly the most beautiful day outside – the first true fall day that called for sweater weather! I convinced (begged) my mom to stay with us one more day before heading to my sister’s house and we ventured out to Newbury Street! I’m loving my new TopShop bag for this season -it’s the perfect cognac color & is so roomy!
Since my mom was with us for one more night, we snuck out for another date night and this time met up with Jackie & Tom for a quick dinner! It was so nice to be out and about if only for a little bit of time!
The wrap cardigan& top shop bag are making another appearance!
Sunday we headed towards my sister’s house to drop my mom off, see the kids and head to the Boston Hill Farm. It was such a fun filled fall day full of apple picking, pumpkins and cider donuts! Sophia slept through the entire thing,but I know next year she’ll be running through the fields!
This was a weekend for the record books and I’m excited for October and all the fun to be had! How was your weekend? Link up below to share it with us!

Beautiful.
Your iphone pictures are so good! Do you have a new phone? How wonderful that you were able to sneak out a few times while your mom was there…priceless! Have a great week!
How amazing! You had the perfect Fall weekend! Just look at your smiles and that doughnut!
Ok you guys are goals! I love how you keep up with activities, meals out, and date night. This is exactly how we want to be whenever a baby arrives! Keep it up! 🙂

Enjoy your last month of maternity leave! It goes by so fast. Loved the picture of your little family plus grandma. I'm sure she loved the chance to babysit, even if it was only for an hour and 15 minutes! 🙂
Sounds like a wonderful weekend! Seems like you packed all the fun things in. And that farm looks too cute!!
This was the perfect weekend to get out and about! The weather was SO GORGEOUS! We might have to pay a visit to that Boston Hill Farm!!

What a fun weekend! The apple on Sophia's head & Gary's face cracked me up! Yay for a date night, moms, & solo Target trips! Happy Monday!
Yayyyy for date nights and solo trips to Target! I remember that feeling when I went for the first time without baby girl in tow. How adorable is Gary with the apple on Sophia's head?! And now I'm totally craving cider donuts <3

These iPhone pics are amazing! So happy you got a couple of date nights!
You look gorgeous, momma! I remember my first kid-free trip to Target! It's a milestone. 🙂 And what a treat to have your parents in town!
Such Gorgeous pictures ! Are all these taken with your new iPhone ?? If so, the quality is top notch. You look so happy !
Your pictures are SO good that I can't believe it's all iPhone. I'm obsessed with the Kopari balm, it makes an amazing gloss too! And isn't going to Target alone life changing after you have a baby??
Looks like you had a great weekend!! Love all the photos!

What a fabulous fall weekend! How amazing is your mom?! I love that y'all got to sneak in two date nights while she was there. Have a great week!
It is so lovely to see you all so happy, healthy and fab looking! I remember those first sneaky dates where you can't fully settle 🙂 So fab that your Mum slept over for you though – so sweet of her. We didn't get that til C was 5 and by then I was scarred and battle-hardened. Boston looks like a foodie paradise – A has been and wants us to do a trip next year around the NE as it must be the most beautiful place in the world in Autumn! The donut looks amazing – teeth hurting and worth it 🙂 xx
Can't believe you're already wearing sweaters!! Looks like a FABULOUS weekend; glad you got out solo and as a duo!! XOXO,R
What a falltastic weekend. We are still in shorts down here :)!
So glad you got some time to get alone time & date time… I'm sure your momma loved the time with Sophia too. Win win for everyone!!!
Sounds like a really nice weekend! Enjoy this last bit of maternity leave!!
Sounds like you had great weekend. You look amazing in this white sweater, Biana. Happy Monday babe. xx

Sounds like it was a wonderful Fall Weekend. I worked all weekend (Sat and Sun) and was so disappointed to miss out on the great weather! So jealous that you went Apple Picking!! That picture of you, your Mom and Sophia is Gorgeous!! Three Beautiful Ladies.
SO many fun fall things this weekend, B! I love the picture of your husband balancing the apple on Sophia's head haha it's such a "dad" thing to do! And YAY for solo trips to Target! Happy Monday!
What a wonderful weekend!! I'm incredibly jealous of your weather. At this point I'm not sure we'll ever see the 60's. Haha.
Two dates nights in one weekend, look at y'all! You look great! I am so jealous of the sweater weather, still summer down here! I am so glad you got to Target by yourself!
Girl, I know how good it must've felt just to have those moments to yourself and with just you and Gary here and there throughout the weekend! It recharges you, which is so important, and your mama knows that, haha! You look absolutely beautiful and I love these photos. One of the very first actives we did with Aviah was also some apple picking. Thanks for sharing, beauty, I love seeing snippets of baby girl! I hope you have the best week ahead and enjoy every bit of the rest of your maternity leave!
XO,

Ohhh such a busy weekend and two date nights!! Yay you!!
Gorgeous lady you look amazing! Glowing as ever with your new bundle of joy but I can't even tell you were just pregnant. So glad you and Gary are getting some fun date nights and "hands-free" time for you while your parents are there visiting. Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
I love all the pics, you look amazing Mama! So nice of you and Gary to get time out- your Mom sounds like a total gem. LOVE all the pics from the farm!
So nice that you got to go on a date night for two nights in a row. It must be so needed especially when you have a child.

What a fun weekend. Loving all the Fall things. I can't believe Sophia is almost 2 months already. Time flies.
Looks like a fun weekend! I also love your cream sweater. Yay to your parents moving to Boston too!! That is exciting news!! Do you think that they will be OK during the winter months though? 🙂 I'm also glad that you and Gary were able to get out alone too. 🙂
It was a beautiful weekend! I went to Nashoba Valley Winery on Saturday. I'm hoping we get one more nice weekend so I can go to Newport Winery. I'm glad you were able to get a couple date nights in.
fun adventures! all that food looks super tasty!
