Making: Stevie do all sorts of things he hates. Cooking: is for the birds. Drinking: the non-dairy Tropi-Kale smoothie from Robek’s. Reading: Goodnight, Goodnight Construction Site Wanting: another tattoo. Looking: for a chambray romper that won’t break the bank. Playing: a few new DVD’s hoping one will catch Stevie’s interest. Deciding: on therapies for Stevie. Enjoying: spring blooms in…
I’ve never done a breakdown of all my clothes on the blog before. I’m kind of excited to share! Just a couple years ago, it would’ve taken a decade to go over everything in my over-packed, overwhelming closet. But for the past few seasons, I’ve been working on defining my style and whittling down the junk. And…
Let’s wrap this trip up, yes? Day 7 had nothing exciting to report – just a travel day. We drove back to Chicago to take a flight to Kansas City to drive into Joplin, Missouri. And unlike the first part of our trip, the second part was all scheduled correctly, thankyouverymuch. The next day was spent…
Obviously things slowed down significantly in Madison. Well, most things. Stevie was still go, go, go and wanted to play on the stairs pretty much the entire stay. Super fun for everyone, taking shifts catching whatever he felt like throwing down at the moment. The stuff vacation dreams are made of, I’m telling you. But…
Oh Chicago. Another city crush. You all know I am a huge fan of New York, but Chicago is up there too. It’s like the preppy little sister to rockin’ NYC. Lots of good shopping, eating and city fun while still looking so pretty and friendly. Stevie likes the hustle and bustle of the city too. Cars…
Hey all! We made it back to hot Los Angeles! Overall we had a really good trip visiting family in 3 different states. Man, we are ambitious on vacation – now we need an actual vacation to recover. Day one. Oh, day one. Boy do I have a story for you! But I’ll start at…
Even though most of the country is in a warming trend and starting to see glimpses of Spring, just a week ago much of the Midwest was still in an arctic freeze. So imagine my nerves as we headed out to Chicago, Wisconsin and Missouri to visit family. I was prepared (and kind of excited)…
I haven’t had a spa day in years. So when I get desperate, sometimes I’ll just slather organic coconut oil all over. Since it warms on contact, it feels like your own personal sauna. And leaves your skin pretty soft. Just don’t sit on anything! If you search Google Images for Nene Leakes, she seriously…
I had some requests for a tutorial on this hairstyle, after it was debuted on un-fancy.com. Oh, my hair is embarrassingly dirty in this video. If you saw my Confessions last week, you will already know. But I just hadn’t had time to wash it, and this is what I do when that happens – the…
I have been putting off taking Stevie to the Natural History Museum because… well, he’s Stevie. He has shown no interest in nature or history. The museum does not have cars. So I didn’t have high hopes. One of his teachers recommended I take him, so I figured we’d give it a shot. We braved…
