Easy Infinity Scarf Tutorial

My awesome sister has been visiting me this past month and we've been having a lot of fun spending quality time together.  Whenever we hang out, we have so much fun because we are alike in so many ways.  We have the same silly quirks, enjoy grocery shopping and free samples, love watching cheesy dance chick flicks, and are always having random dance parties around the house.

Last week, she put her high school video project editing skills to good use and filmed and edited my very first video tutorial - it's my take on how to make an easy infinity scarf.

We had a fun time making this and I hope you find it useful and easy to follow.  Feel free to use/share/pin it!

Jersey Girl

Time has been flying by and it's been over a month since I last posted.  Cora is growing at an exponential rate and I am just unable to keep up with her on my blog! It's been a busy couple of months for us as we spent 5 weeks in NJ with my family.  Cora made it through her first plane ride beautifully, which was a huge relief for me.  This trip was Cora's first time meeting most of my family and childhood friends, and most people commented that she was so much bigger in real life than she appeared in my pictures.  Yes, their observations were true, but I've also been lagging in my posting by at least a month, and in baby terms, alot can change in a month!

So here's a run through of our month-long stay in the fabulous state of New Jersey!

We arrived just in time for my brother's graduation from medical school.  Can't believe my younger brother is actually a doctor now! Crazy, and I'm crazy proud of him!

We took Cora into NYC for the first time - to get Halal of course!

I had such a good time introducing Cora to her Jersey roots.  She's gonna be a Jersey girl at heart, just like her momma!
