Love is Everything to Me.

Hello! I am so excited you are here!

If you are curious as to who I am, the short version is this: my great loves in life are my devastatingly handsome & witty husband, my cuddly dog Gunnar, the perfect (if not elusive) iTunes playlist, J.Crew, sarcasm, exclamation points and above all God.

If you want to know a little more about me or ask how to say my incredibly German last name, click on the Hello tab above or feel free to send me an email with questions, virtual hugs or professions of your undying love (I don't judge). I would love to hear from you.

i’m yours, melissa

There’s been a lot of talk on the blog lately about kids and babies and the lack of which my womb desires either one. (Yup, just said womb on the blog.) Sometimes I wonder if I do have a biological clock or if it is possible that I could have been born without that innate desire to procreate and fill the Earth with little Melissa’s and their nine year old propensity towards perms, glasses and koolats. But every once in a while, a family comes along that gives me license to believe that if I could be a mom & wife and have THAT kind of child and still maintain a sense of self, love and style then maybe, just maybe, I could be there one day too.

Before I knew Lisa as a mom, I knew her as Lisa Mallaiah, the very fabulous and stylish writer of My Inner Fashionlogue; hands down one of my favorite style blogs. But it wasn’t until I really got to know her that I discovered that not only is this woman fiercely fashionable & gorgeous but she also has one amazing, giving heart to back it up. And then I met Miles (also know as the baby who may change my mind about babies) and her wonderful husband Mitch and I started to feel the desire to make a case to be adopted into their family. I LOVE this family. Insta-love. And I’m really not ashamed of it.

So, guys…about that adoption thing…

    Adorable and beautiful! Melissa, do you think they’d take us both as a two for one type deal? :)

    I cannot handle how stylish Lisa is in motherhood. And how adorable Miles is (all that hair!). And…how lovely these photos are :)

    Lovely family- great photos! Don’t give up on your biological clock either… one of the pluses of being modern women is that we don’t have to have babies when we are 15… or even 25!
