I wanted to throw out some more health tips for you guys before the new year, in case you’re looking to make changes after gorging yourself during the holidays (like I did). This is kind of how I stay on track for the long run. PLANNING AHEAD The most important thing you can do for yourself…
Looking back, I realized I never updated you guys on my Fall Capsule. Turns out, I don’t think that many people cared, so that’s a… relief? I guess? Since California had so little change in the weather anyway, I didn’t really have to worry about making many adjustments. I wore my Summer Capsule with a little…
Merry Christmas from us !! Christmases with Stevie. Hm. I’m trying to think how to describe it… They really seem to simultaneously get harder and easier each year. Harder because Stevie knows what he wants and he wants it now. No exceptions. Lots of tantrums, screaming, demanding, and more presents!!!! I know he’s not the…
OMG STEVIE IS 5!! And this is the first year he understands it’s his birthday. For the last month, he kept telling us my birthday coming up soon. And when we’d ask how old he was going to be, he finally stopped saying two and started giving the right answer. This morning he woke up ready…
I had a teenager give me a tutorial on how to use SnapChat. There is no turning back now. (Username: themomgonnasnap) When Stevie wants to put something in his “cock-et”. I react like a 12 year old boy. Or a 36 year old husband. The most stressful day I had this week was when my…
It’s time for your weekly installment of this mom is a dummy! Are you ready?! So yesterday was cold. Real cold. And windy. Warm comfort food was a high priority for dinner. I decided tomato soup was the ticket, and quickly found a vegan recipe online. Again, this was an easy recipe. Nothing complicated about it.…
IS IT FRIDAY YET? (Well it wasn’t when I wrote this. But I guess it is now.) Also, I nearly passed out when I got an email yesterday that was titled Two Weeks til Xmas. I need a security system for all the security system salesmen who stop by our house. I took Stevie to…
During the holidays, it’s hard not to get caught up in the hustle and bustle and sales and shopping and more, more, more, more, more!! That’s probably why I haven’t set foot in a store in weeks. Well, except Target. We’ve all been to Target, right? I’ve mostly been poking around online, trying to keep…
Gadoo has been sneezing and it’s just about the cutest thing ever! Dare I say, even slightly cuter than a baby sneeze, and we all know how adorable baby sneezes are. It kind of makes me like him again. I’m obviously doing a lot of fantasizing about decorating our new place. Visions of a clean/mid-century…
I don’t know why, even when I want to cook a simple dinner, if it doesn’t involve a microwave, it always has to be a story. Or maybe it’s just me who thinks my life is hilarious. No comments from the peanut gallery plz. So we have a kitchen in our new house – not…
