Stevie has been up to some new things that we are pretty excited about. #1 – Walking. Not independently. He will take some big clumsy steps while we hold his arms. He has been using his walker daily – even if just for 5 minutes – to build those muscles and just get him on…
Shorts + Boots
I know this is slight overkill, because it will warm up to nearly 80 degrees today. But the last couple days there has been the slightest hint that Autumn is in our midst. There was fog. There was crispness. There was a chill in the air. Sweaters and boots started chanting my name from the…
San Francisco
I just got home from a trip to Northern California and I haven’t blogged about this one yet! Plus we have another trip to San Fran in about 3 weeks. We’ll see how soon I get around to that one. Anyway, this is wrapping up the stay-cation I’ve been going on & on & on…
LifeProof iPhone Case
I love, love, love my LifeProof phone case. Besides being waterproof, I can take pictures in swimming pools, and it’s also safe from rain, snow, dirt. But most importantly, it’s shatterproof from 6 feet up. As someone who cracked their iPhone screen 2x’s in one month, this is kind of a big deal. I also…
Drawstring Pants - Day or Date
The most comfortable pants in the world, because basically, they are pajamas. I was really hesitant about buying them because I didn’t really envision myself wearing silky pj’s out in public. But they have been one of my best $12 purchases! I have worn them to everything from bridal showers to premier parties. And I…
Quick Little Bathroom Update
Our bathroom has been made over before. We’ve changed the floor tiles & the shower doors and Paul painted his little heart out on all the cabinets. That was… 4 years ago? I think. Pre-child. Since Stevie is the one who has reign over the guest bathroom now, I just wanted to update it again…
Family Reunion Disneyland Day
During our family reunion, we took a day away from the nice, cool beach to spend some time at fun, hot Disneyland. I loved going with more kids and more family than I usually go with. It is always a treat to spend time with everyone. But to spend time with them and take snapshots…
Redondo Beach House
Stay-cation Day #4 was the official start of our family reunion. Aunt Patti arranged a beach house for everyone to come stay and the next few days were strictly reserved for sand, sun, and waves. We body-surfed the time away and then would go back to the beach house to relax and visit. We had…
Jumpsuit + a Hubby Shout-out
Is there a difference between the Jumpsuit and the Romper? I do not know. Maybe rompers are shorts? Shorts give the idea that you are playful and flirty. And that you like to romp. Romping is much different than jumping, you know. I always call this one a romper, but it’s technically a jumpsuit, according…
Stevie Fan Club {Stevie Stands Up!}
It’s been a busy week for mister Stephen. He started swim class, which he hates. So naturally, I signed him up for 4 more classes. He chipped a tooth. Hit his noggin on the corner of a chair and I didn’t even notice the tooth until like 8 hours later. He’ll lose that one anyway,…
