Banana Almond Muffins
When was the last time you had a muffin? For me, it was when we had breakfast at Ventana. They have gluten-free breads and pastries – when I saw they had apple-cinnamon muffins, I was scary excited. I love muffins and always seem to forget about them when I’m at the store. When I’m baking,…

Happy Sunday! How’s your weekend going? Here’s what we’ve been up to over here: -I had a little photoshoot- should be able to say what it was for later this week -We went on our first real date in almost 4 months. First time wearing TALL shoes in forever: I usually stick to flats…

-First I thought that my husband holding a baby was dreamy, but wearing an Ergo just takes it to another level. -Babies in sunglasses = just about the cutest thing ever (They’re still a little too big, but it was fun to try them on and snap a photo) -We got a new printer. This…

Take it off
It was about time to go from this: (what I call my “witch hair” – too long and thick to manage) to this. I lost about 5 lbs in hair this morning. As much as I love the convenience of the messy bun, I’m so excited to be able to wear my hair down…

Hi friends 🙂 It’s almost the weekend! I’m so glad you liked the back workout– let me know if you give it a try! Since the Pilot and I are both (still) feeling a little under the weather –please be allergies- we had someone else do the cooking last night. Soup and salad FTW Treat…
Read More →Personal Style
The concept of personal style is somewhat new to me. I have always been a trend-follower (which is OKAY!) and dressed myself based on which stores were popular at the time. In high school I definitely still shopped based on popular styles (hello Abercrombie ripped jeans) but as I transitioned into my college years, I…

Will shake for chicken. Would probably sing an aria whilst riding a unicycle for chicken, but you know. Another lovely Pilot-grilled feast: I prepped the food and when he got home, he grilled it up while I did the baby bedtime rituals. We had dinner before 8pm, and it was awesome. Wilted some kale on…
Read More →{Video post} Tummy time
We weren’t always the best at doing tummy time. You’re supposed to do it as often as possible during the day, so the baby can build up neck strength and doesn’t get a flat head from laying down all the time. Sometimes it would end up being 5pm and I’d think “Ahh! Tummy time!” and…

Bring it back
Just when I thought it would be an uneventful morning, we had a massive power outage in Tucson. Livi and I were just about to head somewhere air conditioned when it magically turned back on. Thank goodness we both had breakfast before everything went out. Since I’ve been enjoying oats for a snack lately, it’s…

Smoothie weather! Nice to see ya. It’s easy to complain about the heat when you live in the desert, but I say bring it on. I may change my tune when it’s 115* and my eegee is melting faster than I can drink it, but for now, I will relish in the toastiness, Drink lots…
Read More →Recycling clothes
I could easily be a clothes hoarder. It’s not like I would ever wear my “Ryan, Marry Me!” shirt again, but sometimes I get a little attached to the memories behind the clothes. They remind me of different times in my life, and it hurt a little when I got rid of the first dress…

Fresh laundry = Bella’s favorite pillow This is why it’s so much harder to put it away.. she just looks so comfy. Hope you’re all having a happy Monday so far! My last post could have used some text to go along with the pictures, but kept it wordless in the spirit of my Sunday…
