week 5 // ball collector week 6 // clumsy boy week 7 // the “geen bop” (train park) lover week 8 // coffeeeeee drinker Making: more videos. Cooking: I made stuffed peppers this week. Quite an accomplishment. Drinking: almond milk. Reading: books about trucks. Any truck book will do. Wanting: this watch. Looking: forward to…
To put it ever-so gently, this week has kicked my ass. One of those weeks that leaves me wondering how anyone – including myself – ever dared to think I would be cut out for motherhood. A week filled with tantrums, screaming, and spitting from morning until night. A week where my body collapses in…
Since ankle boots don’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, I’ve been on the hunt for a pair. Just basic, simple, easy-to-wear-with-anything, all-around ankle boots. I liked these from Steve Madden, but I’m trying to stay on more of a budget here. And one day while I was perusing Target, I came across these…
After a few years off, I’m back on the American Idol wagon. Can we just say? Harry. Connick. Junior. I can not do one correct push-up. Even girl style. I seriously can’t do it. I’m working on it though. I really want to get Stevie a puppy. There are a lot of “buts” that go…
… or LACMA for short. You all know what it is. There was free admission yesterday, so I thought I’d take the Stevie. We actually never even made it inside, but he liked the elevated mass, the tar pits and the light installation. Well he liked them second best to the stairs and the ramps.…

I am in desperate need of a dance party. My brother tells me I am exactly like the “smother” on the show The Goldbergs. Not sure why this makes me so incredibly happy. Just need the 80’s hair. Doing burpees and pushups as a grown up is probably one of the most embarrassing things I’ve…
OMG look at my Stevie! So excited to ride his new scooter! I could die. He looks so cute and happy! Roughly 45 seconds later: The end.
Stevie has really started to develop a thing for trucks and buses. Well that’s not true – he’s liked them for quite some time, but it was hard to tell since he called everything by the name of UH! So lately I’ve been encouraging him to tell me what he is seeing. He is getting…
The one time I wear sweat pants to the park, along with my I-don’t-give-a-crap attitude, I meet the cool, hip moms with great hair and makeup, whose kids get along awesome with Stevie. I really tried to like “Her”. I wanted to like it. Maybe it was Joaquin Phoenix and his creepy ‘stache. Or the…
