I can’t believe a year has passed since our last anniversary! It feels like I wrote that blog entry yesterday. Not much has changed as far as how I feel about the man I married. Only now we have that little bambino on the way to sweeten the deal even more. For my present, he…
First Signs of Fall
In California, there are no seasons. We have sunshine year round. While sometimes this is a good thing, other times I miss those transitions where you can kind of feel the air change into the next season. Well, this morning we had our first sign of Fall (other than Halloween decorations showing up in the…
Intimate Apparel?
So you know when you are like 13 years old and you go bra shopping for the first time and you see those hideous, giant, silky, “full-coverage” bras with straps so thick that it looks more like a parachute than lingerie hanging on the rack and you think to yourself “I hope to high heaven…

My hair is driving me crazy!! For those of you who know me, I’m not one to keep the same hair style for very long. And this one is wearing out it’s welcome, big time. I am so over the brunette. No offense to the beautiful brunettes I know. It’s just not for me. Totally…

Took another little trip this past week – my annual romp to Utah. Instead of flying straight to Salt Lake this year, I made a little detour in St. George to visit my family, see my nephew and pick up my sister so she could romp with me! It felt like such a whirlwind because…
Finland: In a Nutshell
I can’t believe we’ve already been home for 3 weeks. I mean we were in Finland a month ago. Crazy. Traveling to Finland was a bit like time travel to me. We left our house at 4am on Tuesday and arrived in Helsinki at 10am on Wednesday. I swear I saw the sunset and the…
Pregnancy Sucks!
There I said it. I know it’s a miracle and it’s wonderful and I shouldn’t be complaining. But I’m not going to lie. It’s been hard too. A lot harder than I thought. Not because I’m tired (which I am) or sick (which I was) or fat (which I’m getting there) but because it is…
