Anyone else feel like it’s just never going to be cold again here in LA? I’ve worn shorts non-stop since February. I really hope to be eating my words come Christmas time. My attention span has gotten so bad, and I’ve gotten so used to interruptions, I can only get through about 30 minutes of a movie…
Month: September 2014
8 Years and Counting
DAD! DAD! DAD! Eat! Dad! Eat! EAT! EAT! Mom. Mom! MOM! EAT!!! That would be the sound of sweet Stevie first thing in the morning. Cue me, burying my head under as many pillows as I can find, trying to drown out the nagging. Paul and I roll over and give each other the look. We…
5 More Friday Confessions
Nothing motivates me to eat my fruits and veggies like a weekend of debauchery. I came home from Palm Springs and ate healthy for like a whole day! Sometimes I take the local streets with the speed bumps because it always makes Stevie laugh. He giggles in the back seat and shouts “Mo-om!” with each thump.…
Mama Like: Mineral Eye Shadow
A few months back, I posted about this magical mascara that lengthens your lashes by 300%. It sounds absurd, but it’s a real thing. And I still love it. So when a rep from Younique asked if I’d like to try some additional products? Well, you bet I jumped at the chance. I’m honestly not…
Attempted Capsule Wardrobe: Downsizing
Yesterday was one of the first “free” days we’ve had in awhile. So as soon as we got Stevie down for a nap, I went temporarily insane, ripped everything out of my closet, threw it on the bed, and proceeded to clean the closet. This, in itself, is not breaking news because I clean my…
Stevie Fan Club {Hugs, Hugs, Hugs!}
You may have already seen this on Instagram and/or Facebook. But Stevie just learned how to give a real hug! Oooooh! To feel his chubby little arms squeeze around my neck… I mean, I can’t even describe it. I felt butterflies shwooshing around in my tummy. I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders. I…
5 More Friday Confessions
I tried yoga for the first time. Ever. In my whole life. It was an intermediate hot class and I was so nervous! Having girlfriends there helped, and in the end, I loved it. I’m going to try and make it my Monday night thing to get all zen and shit for the week. Approximately…
Summer of Stevie
While the last couple weeks have pushed me to my limits, this past weekend had some really… fulfilling moments, helping to put me back in a little better state of mind. Not only does crying like a baby help, but I worked on Friday. If it had been anything other than a wedding, I probably…
A Novel: Weird Life, Yo.
You know how life is really weird and all, right? Yeah. Ups and downs and all arounds. Being high, then being low, then getting stuck in the middle like a bad hair part. Sometimes you’re overwhelmed to the point of tears and sometimes you can’t think of a single thing to do that seems more important than…
Palm Springs Girly Best Ever Bachelorette Weekend
Palm Springs. 113 degrees. Fantastic house. Poolside. SPF 100. Awesome group. Great food. Girl talk. The kind of weekend where your biggest problem is who’s getting out of the pool to get the next round of drinks?! I give you “Scenes from a Bachelorette Party”. Haha And that’s all I’m authorized to share at this time.…
