It’s been an amazing past couple of days. On Friday November 16th our tiny love turned one. One! One of the things that I have always loved to do as the current year is about to end is to look back on all the events that have happened throughout the year because I’m always amazed by everything… Continue reading The Big “1”
It’s such a beautiful day in sunny Southern California that you would think it is May instead of almost mid November. One of my favorite seasons is Fall, and while I would love to see more of those overcast cool days and more Autumn leaves, I can’t help but smile when the air is cool outside… Continue reading Grateful For Life
What did I do Saturday evening? Well, I decided to take Celeste, our now 10 month baby, for the very first time to JC Penney for a photo shoot. Oh…my…gosh, where to start?! If you are looking for the ideal recipe to annoy your baby, annoy yourself, annoy anyone who accompanies you (my mother in this case) and… Continue reading The One About the Photo Studio
You know those days where nothing quite goes as planned and you’re busy going from one thing to the next with a few moments of downtime sprinkled here and there? I’ve had one of those days, and its been wonderful. How is it that it’s been so great if I haven’t quite been able to… Continue reading Just the right attitude
I was thinking about a post I wrote a while back A Gift To Myself and decided to revisit my post and remind myself of the promise I made to be more gentle and kind to myself when it comes to my thoughts, especially now that I’m a new mommy. It’s pretty awesome to think that almost 9 months… Continue reading Remembering My Promise
These last few days have been a bit tense for me. As you may remember I mentioned before that I started school again after taking 2 semesters off and now with working part time, going to school part time, plus the new responsibility of our baby daughter, I’m finding it really difficult at times to juggle everything without feeling overwhelmed.… Continue reading Cut the Control, Unleash the Flexibility
Today I was on kiddie overload. Correction, my mom and I were on kiddie overload. Yesterday, my vision of today was of a low key relaxing day spent with my husband, baby girl Celeste, and our bulldog Biggie. Unfortunately that image came to a screeching halt when my husband called me last night and told me… Continue reading Do Not Disturb
Last week I started a post that I never got around to finishing and while I first thought about just deleting it, I figired why not share it and then continue from where I left off, so here it goes… Have you ever felt so utterly exhausted that you’re on the brink of tears? It’s… Continue reading Back to School
Last night I learned that 9 month old babies (namely ours) do not like to have foreign objects inserted into their nose, especially if said object is also squirting some kind of liquid inside. I’m sure this will one day change though when she realizes that by poking her little finger into said nose she’ll be able to… Continue reading Mission Almost Impossible: The Saline Nose Dropper
Alright, it’s the end of week one of my project: getting my sexy back, basically getting into a workout routine and watching what I eat… This week was a flop, not a total flop, just a bit of a flop. One great thing about my results for this week is I was forced to re-evaluate my commitment to… Continue reading Does Walking A Bulldog Count?
