Ohio-based Lifestyle, Home, and Travel Blog by Amanda Hamman

Columbus, Ohio · April 27, 2016

Life Lately: April

Such a busy month! Trying to juggle a 3-month-old, going back to work, and my blog… I know I’ve taken a short hiatus with GAC and I apologize 🙂 I promise to bring you posts as often as I can! This month, you all really enjoyed My Weekend in Photos and a new GAC series, 5 Fab Friday Finds – you can find those posts here, here, and here. In related news, GAC turned 3 years old and I organized all of my pregnancy and family posts on one page for easier reading. Here is a little of what I’ve been up to:

sundays

^ Sunday mornings with my girl are just the best 🙂 My pajamas // Ava’s pajamasmothers-day

^ Partnered with Origins to help spread awareness of their #KissThePlanet campaign while sharing this photo of Ava + I at one of my favorite spots ever, the nursery. my bag // my jeans // my sunnies // Ava’s romper // Ava’s bonnet.
curio

^ Got brave and took the babe to one of Nic and I’s favorite date spots, Harvest/Curio. It was a totally success 🙂 northstar-cafe

Cincinnati Photo Dump 🌸✨// We had so much fun Cincinnati Photo Dump 🌸✨// We had so much fun on our little one-day getaway! 🙌🏻 If we would've had more time, we could've visited Miami... my alma mater! 🤍 You guys know I love supporting @ohio529 for higher education. This past year, I've learned so much & I want to share with you all... did you know: 
1.) All you need is $25 to start or add to your Ohio's 529 plan.
2.) Your Ohio's 529 plan be used NATIONWIDE - not just for Ohio schools.
3.) Your Ohio's 529 doesn't just cover tuition - you can use it on any qualified expense, like room & board, books, computers, internet services, mandatory fees and MUCH more.
4.) 529 plans aren't just for 4-year colleges. Ohio's 529 can be used at ANY type of school - whether that's a 4-year college, trade and tech schools, certificate programs, apprenticeships and more.
5.) There are SO many tax benefits - ALL earnings, including interest, grow tax-free, 529 plan withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified higher education expenses, and you can deduct your contributions from their Ohio taxable income, up to $4K per year, per beneficiary.
