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…

Mom Style {5 More Friday Confessions}
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…
Los Angeles County Museum of Art
… 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.…
Before I Was a Mom: We Got a Cat
Almost 8 years ago (!) – back in March of 2006, before Paul and I got married, we really wanted a cat. OK, I really wanted a cat. Paul was kind enough to play along. We were on the lookout for an orange tabby, because obviously they are the cutest. But because they’re the cutest,…
Mom Style {5 More Friday Confessions}
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…
Stevie Fan Club {This Damn Scooter}
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.
Riding the Burbank City Bus
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…
Mom Style {5 More Friday Confessions}
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…
Stevie Fan Club {When He Sleeps}
I always say nap time is the best time. Holla if ya hear me folks! I’m not one of those parents who gets bored or misses my kid while he sleeps. #sorrynotsorry. And right now, the naps are getting shorter, but I am clinging to them for dear life, I tell ya. If a kid turns…
Shopping Diet: Mission Complete
As I sit here thinking about what profound thing I can tell you all about giving up shopping for year, I realize… well, there really isn’t anything. Because giving up shopping for a year is not profound. It’s not as important as it seemed when I first started. In the scheme of life and all…
