In my pre-mother life, I loved to cook and experiment with food. And I actually had the time and sanity to do it. I’m talking pretty much everything from scratch (no, I didn’t make my own chocolate, but it does sound fun!). Not because I’m a food snob, OK I am, but because I just…
Hacks for Finding Your Perfect Swimsuit Summer is upon the Americas!!!!! It may not seem like it for many of us, especially us East Coasters dealing with Storm Neptune, but the time is C-O-M-I-N-G. That was a little more ominous sounding that I meant it to be! But for real, life will soon again become…

If you live in a medium to large sized metropolitan area, you’ve most likely heard of trampoline gyms popping up nearby in the last couple of years. These gyms feature thousands of square footage of trampolines. It is a child’s fantasy land…and mine! We have a couple around us to choose from (in the greater…
It’s taken me some time to figure out how to describe my adjustment to life with two kids. Actually, everything these days is taking me “some time”. Mostly I find it difficult to complete anything–a thought, a sentence, getting ready for the day (which is why you get Instagram documentation anytime it happens)–now that there are more kids…
Dating My Baby Daddy: Skipping Dinner & a Movie for a Touchdown I have a theory on why dinner and a movie is the classic go-to plan for date night: it’s E-A-S-Y. It can be kind of pricey, but it is definitely easy. The hardest parts of the evening come at two points: deciding on what…
Dating My Baby Daddy: How to get out of the house, without the kids I just had my second child over a month ago and it’s been wonderful! Wonderfully sweet, wonderfully challenging, and wonderfully crazy. Being a complete extrovert whose love language is spoken in quality time, and who is insanely in love with her…
I’m not sure which came first; bad skin resulting from my current pregnancy or bad skin resulting from a trip a couple of months ago where my husband accidentally packed no-name body moisturizer in my facial moisturizer travel container…and then proceeded to let me apply it to my face daily. Either way, some time ago,…

When the beachy waves trend was first getting started (the second time–in the late 2000s, not in the 1970s…) my hair was growing out from being quite short and I did not have a small enough barreled curling iron to achieve the look quite right. The smaller barrels are better for shorter hair, because they…

DAY 5: Apologies, because I forgot to film this video until after I had been through my entire day, including a nap that involved a lot of rolling around on my hair. Nap dreams make you do the strangest things! Anyway, it’s just a simple pony tail for me on Day 6. I wrapped a…
