My son’s vocab is expanding by the minute! He’s go at least 20 words in his 1 year old lexicon. I’m going to just go ahead and say it. He’s just your average baby genius. His new favorites are his new take on dada. Now it’s spaced out like DAH-DAH at the top of his […] Read more…

No Trespassing
Dear Athleta, I’m not sure what to say here. I think you’re cool. I like what you have to offer. The work out gear seems top notch and all. It’s just that right now, we’re in different places in life. You’re all “work out, it’s cool” and I’m all “when? I don’t have time”. This […] Read more…
40 Before 40
What are your goals? Not bucket list type goals but, more immediate. I ask because I’ve been seeing a lot of lists on the web. On blogs everywhere, people often list the things they want to accomplish by a certain age. The one I’ve seen the most is the 30 before 30. Yeah, that ship […] Read more…

My life has been beyond hectic for awhile now and I think that a little de-stressing is in order. I started trying to think of ways to relax. Here’s what I came up […] Read more…
Time Hates Me
Lately, me and time are far from friendly. We are not even on a first name basis anymore. I’m not declaring time an enemy. I need it. I am just saying that sometimes I feel like it’s betraying me. Cheating me. Just being sneaky. Not cool time, not cool. That being said, I think we […] Read more…
Giving up the Goods
It’s not a secret that I had a hard time letting go of the nursing bond. It was a fantastic connection that I feel privileged to have shared with my son. When it was over I was really sad. Well, the same can be said for Kourtney Kardashian. Apparently, celebrities are just like us. She […] Read more…
Working out & the working mom
I used to be a bit of a workout-a-holic. I would faithfully suit up in my workout gear after work and hit the gym. After getting married I wanted to go straight home after work so I would get up in the mornings before work and hit the gym. Once I knew we were ready […] Read more…
