A mozzie’s cozzie?
Today I had my last “monthly” midwife appointment- from here on out, they’re every two weeks. My appointment was with the first midwife I met at the practice, and I adore her. She walks into the room, sits in her chair and looks at me, ready to answer questions and takes all the sweet time…

Hi friends 🙂 It’s Friday! Thank goodness. What are you up to this weekend? On Thursdays, since it’s my long day at work, we usually have 3 choices for dinner: 1) Take-out 2) Slow cooker 3) Scrounge for something random. [Soup = the world’s least photogenic food] Last night was #3- some Amy’s soup and…

Fun and Blahs of Pregnancy
Online, I’ve read a lot of pregnancy gripes. I’m also guilty of occasionally complaining about the not-so-fun parts of pregnancy, but 99.9% of the time I love it. I can already tell that I’ll be kind of sad when I’m not pregnant anymore, but [god-willing], I’ll have a happy, healthy little baby girl instead 🙂…

Hey hey! Happy Thursday. So glad the weekend is almost here. Hope you have something fun planned. We’re having friends over for dinner Saturday night and plan to do a Sabino Canyon hike sometime this weekend, too- now that the weather is cooling down a little, we’ll be able to get outside more often. Bella…

New Nutrition Focus
We’ve only taken two classes so far, and I’m really enjoying the Bradley Method classes. Not only does it gives me two dedicated hours of weeknight quality time with Tom [his schedule is so frantic during the week- mine is still busy, but more flexible], time to focus on the baby, a bonus massage at…

Hey friends! Happy Humpday 🙂 Hope your morning has been lovely. For today’s Focus On post, I thought it would be fun to talk about something that we could all do a little more of: stretching. Source I think we all know the benefits of stretching, but for whatever reason, it’s easy skip out on…

Hiiii 😀 Hope you’re having a great night <3 We just got back from birth class and now I’m finally getting to blog, with a wild and angry maltipoo clanking her bowl around and shrieking at me. That’s the face you get when you take Bella’s food away. She’s not allowed to eat after 7pm…

and feeling nesty. 24 weeks: 26 weeks: The belly continues to grow and the baby continues to dance and kick away. It’s crazy because now I can tell how long she is in my belly. Last night, she was kicking on my right side and doing something on my left side at the same time.…

Hi 🙂 How are ya? Hope your morning is going well. Our house smells like a nori nacho paradise, so things are good over here. Quite a few of you were wondering how those Alexia sweet potato puffs were… the verdict? They were fantastic, but the chipotle fries will always be #1. The bottoms were…

Ok, let me go ahead and describe what that was in detail: 6 layers of chocolate cake with fudge and caramel Dark chocolate frosting A layer of chocolate chips pressed into the frosting. The craziest part? It wasn’t even my idea. The other night, Tom was like, “I really need some chocolate cake. Do you…

Nori Nachos
I could pretend that we did SO much today. But really: we didn’t. It’s funny because we weren’t lazy at all, but still didn’t manage to get a ton of stuff done. NBD, since I got to enjoy the day with the Pilot, instead of frantically running around like I usually do on Mondays 🙂…
