Sleep. Oh sweet sleep. It has never come easy for Stevie, thus making it difficult suck for us. And, in fact, I get paranoid talking about, blogging about it, thinking about it, out of fear of jinxing the luck. But here we go anyway. Paul came up with a new system. I was resistant at first.…
Oh Gadoo. You poor old sap. You really had the life didn’t you? You had a blonde, funny BFF who loved you and snuggled you and fed you and generally enjoyed your company. As her belly grew larger and larger, you had no idea what was in store. You thought that protruding pillow was for…
That moment when you start this week’s laundry only to realize you still haven’t put away the clean clothes from last week’s laundry. Blurg. I went shopping and found a really pretty spring jacket. As I waited in line to pay, an 80 year old woman came up behind me to wait in line –…
In a couple weeks, Paul will be transitioning over to a new show – a documentary style reality show about the LA Kiss football team. Did you know LA had a football team?! Neither did I. It’s owned by Mr. Gene Simmons himself and it’s part of the AFL (arena football league). They play indoors…
This weekend was one that I am not mentally prepared for to be over. Sure, nobody ever really wants Monday to roll around, but when you’re busy, the days all sort of blend together and what difference does it make if it’s Monday anyway? That’s been life for several months. But this weekend! Oh this…
I hate the playground. Couldn’t even tell you why, exactly. I just dread going there every day. And we go every. day. All I can do to keep my sanity is go to different playgrounds as much as possible. I have found if I have snacks with me, I am much more tolerant. On an…
week 9 // boy week 10 // infrequent flyer week 11 // wild ivy week 12 // sidewalk sights Making: jokes when I’m uncomfortable. Cooking: maybe once a week? Drinking: sticking with that almond champs. Reading: Los Angeles magazine. Wanting: another ArvoWear watch. I love mine so much and I’ve only had it a week.…
I watched TMZ Live for approximately 45 seconds yesterday, when I suddenly said out loud to myself “Is this a show?!” and changed the channel to Friends reruns. Sometimes when my nail polish starts chipping, I’ll just cut my nails shorter so I don’t have to re-polish right away. Traffic signs that say “Slow Down…
In shocking Mommy Fail news, I forgot Stevie had spring break this week. We drove him all the way to school and realized no one was even there before it dawned on me. Hashtag forehead slap. I had already scheduled a Disneyland shoot on Monday and since my clients are part of the Stevie Fan…
As kids, our parents always encouraged us to be active and try new things. They really had no money to speak of, but they always found a way to pay for 5 kids and all our extra curricular activities, lessons, uniforms, you name it. They never let the money factor be an excuse. My sister…
