Celebrate February, Celebrate Love!

I LOVE this month, and no not just because it’s my birthday this month, although that’s one reason to love February, and also not because it’s Valentine’s Day either. I love February because there’s so many special occasions and anniversaries in this month. And because it’s my birthday month, haha! 😉 My husband proposed on… Continue reading Celebrate February, Celebrate Love!

Journey of my first 5K run

Can this Piscis Run?

Last year around this same time I decided that I would train for and run my very first 5k race and posted a couple blogs about the journey, which came to a sudden halt when I found out I was pregnant and needed to take it easy on the exercising for the first three months.… Continue reading Can this Piscis Run?

Little milestones

Today our sweet Celeste  is 2 months old! What a way we’ve come since those first initial weeks, and what a huge difference time makes. I want to document these memories because I know that as the weeks go by it will help me to be able to look back on this when faced with… Continue reading Little milestones

I’m excited, I’m inspired, Cheers to Writing!

My husband and I are planning on making a list of the goals we have in mind for this year so that we have a better idea of what we want to accomplish. I think this is great because it’s nice to have a little road map in life. It doesn’t mean we’re going to follow it… Continue reading I’m excited, I’m inspired, Cheers to Writing!

Butter To My Bread

This post is for my husband. I was watching the movie Julie and Julia the other day, well at least parts of it here and there because it’s a lot harder to watch a full movie now that we have a little baby. One of my favorite lines of the entire movie was something that Paul Child said… Continue reading Butter To My Bread

A gift to myself

A couple days ago my husband took Celeste and I to the beach to enjoy the beautiful warm day we were having. Since Celeste’s birth we hadn’t really been out much with her and most of the outings we did have with her had been for doctor appointments, so it felt great to be out together… Continue reading A gift to myself

Christmas Memories

One of my favorite things this time of year is seeing the Christmas lights on people’s homes, especially when it’s the traditional standard colored lights because they take me back to the early 80’s and so many wonderful memories of Christmas with my parents. There’s something so comforting about tradition, and as I was walking Biggie around… Continue reading Christmas Memories

Four down, eight more to go?

They say the first three months of having a baby are the toughest…we just survived four weeks. I wonder what happens after the 3 month mark? Does it just magically change or is it that your body and mind finally become accustomed to the sleep deprivation and you learn a new way of functioning? We… Continue reading Four down, eight more to go?

Hungover, except without the alcoholic fix

I remember back in my 20’s I could go out with friends after a shift at the restaurant, have some appetizers and drinks, come home, sleep for maybe 4 – 5 hours and feel rested and ready to conquer the new day. Fast forward to my mid 30’s and these last 3 1/2 weeks of sleep deprivation. I feel as… Continue reading Hungover, except without the alcoholic fix
