As you might’ve seen on our Instagram, this past weekend our little family took a trip to Lima, Perú. It was a looong way to go for a quick Thursday-Monday trip (especially considering the little one and the two long flights!) but my best friend from college was getting married and I really wanted to…
Thanksgiving with the Rices
Before I started dating the #handhomehubbs, I wasn’t very into Thanksgiving AT ALL. In fact, I didn’t even celebrate it! I mean.. if I was invited to a Thanksgiving dinner I’d go but that’s about it. You see, in Panama Thanksgiving is not a holiday. Do people celebrate it? Yeah, absolutely; more and more people…
Bows! Bows! Bows!
Ever since I found out we were having a girl, it’s been bow + headband central here at #CasaRice! If you follow me on Instagram or if you’ve seen this post, you know I’m all about boys clothes for Chickie, since girl clothes can feel overly girly sometimes. Not bows though.. Bows I’ll take any…
#MomlifeMusings Part II
Today’s #momlifemusings comes to us all the way from beautiful Monterado, Italy where my good friend Marjorie lives with hubby Chris, their 80 + pound fur baby Rooney and beautiful 9-month old baby girl Chloé! Chloé, just like her Mama, is a force to be reckoned with! The girl has plenty of opinions and is…
DIY Lettered Pumpkins 🎃
If you follow me on Instagram and watch my #instastories, this post will come as no surprise to you! Carving pumpkins is super fun but VEEERY messy. This year I decided to avoid the mess by lettering our pumpkins instead! It was a lot cleaner than carving and about 50 times less work. After sharing…
Raising Charitable Kiddos
Growing up, my mom and dad always made sure us kids KNEW how privileged we were. They didn’t hide the reality of the world from us; instead, they used the world around us to teach us lessons about giving back and helping those in need. How? Well.. in different ways. One particular memory that sticks…
New Series: #MomLifeMusings
As I’m sure you’ve heard me say a million times in the past, my goal with A Little Too Loud is to grow a community of powerful, complicated mamas that empower each other to be confident in their “too much-ness;” whatever that may be. I want this space to be more than just the Chickie and SHR…

Chickie’s Fun and Functional Playroom
We moved into #CasaRice in November of 2015 when I was pregnant with Chickie. I normally HATE moving but this time around- thanks to the best excuse to not lift a finger- it wasn’t so bad. We moved from a two bed to a three bed so our Panama family could still stay with us once…
Where We Shop: Pregnancy Clothes
I love getting dressed on the weekends. For work? Not so much. My style is super laid back and informal so dressing for work- especially on days I’m in Court- is not my strong suit (pun intended! Get it? I’m a lawyer so I wear suits haha #lamemomjoke 🙃). Because of my laid back, informal…
