Elysse, our 18 month old, is teething. This has been her on and off all week: Fire spitting Godzilla. Destroying anything in sight. Okay well actually just completely depleting any ounce of strength that I have as a human adult. This is pretty much how I finished the week: Our girl has been screaming bloody… Continue reading Motherhood: When your toddler gets a bit Godzilla
Last night Celeste and I had a slumber party. Papa was at work and Elysse spent the night at my parents house, so that meant I could focus and just enjoy her company. Since dinner had gone well I decided it was ok to enjoy a little bit of ice cream as we watched a… Continue reading Motherhood: Chosen for them
Hello all you lovely and beautiful people out there! It’s September 1st! I have a friend that loves firsts. First days of the week. First days of the month. So of course this morning she shared this awesome picture on her social media page and the real cool thing is, I am right there with… Continue reading Motherhood: A new day a new focus
I think two things helped make today a fabulous Friday: fueling myself and community. I was dreading getting out of bed this morning when my alarm went off because the night before I’d made a bad decision and stayed up late. I wanted to just hit snooze but then as I slowly remembered the commitment… Continue reading Motherhood: I Owned It Today

Especially when it comes to parenting stages. I have friends with kids older than ours and some with… Continue reading I am neither behind or ahead

It’s been non stop since 6am and my body is finally saying either lay your ass down and go to sleep or I’m about to get sick all over you. I desperately want to write more but… Continue reading I never knew tired until I had kids
It has been an exciting last few days! We went camping this past weekend at Sweetwater County Park in Bonita, CA. The trip was planned somewhat spur of the moment when my cousin reminded me that her daughter still kept asking when we were going to go camping and take them with us. My cousin… Continue reading Reaching up for fresh air
That’s pretty much me right now. Haha. Have youever felt so tired you feel like you might just throw up? Yeah I hate that feeling too. So the last two days have been filled with the girls of course, swim classes, grocery shopping, cleaning, avoiding major meltdowns, walking the dog, etc. But you know what,… Continue reading Yep, someone please peel me off the floor
Children Have Arrived On Scene Really, need I say more? For some unknown reason our youngest has decided to cry and cry and fuss at random times. She woke up super happy and then the minute I had to go to the bathroom she burst into inconsolable crying. I guess my need to pee meant… Continue reading C.H.A.O.S
