Groceries and benches
I’d like to take a second and thank…. -our neighbors, who brought over the best enchiladas I’ve ever had. A bold, very true statement. (Savored it- cheese and all. If someone makes the tortillas and sauce from scratch, you need to have the full experience. I wanted to curl up and live in that enchilada)…

-I’m kind of addicted to the Babycenter forums. I discovered them a few months ago, but it’s pretty amazing because you can check out the forums for the month your baby was born: It’s fun to see how other moms and babies are doing, and read advice and tips. I lurk it a few times…

Saunas: Fab or Fluke?
Stepped out of the box a little for b-fast this morning.. breakfast quinoa! It’s been forever since I’ve had it for breakfast, but it’s an awesome am option- so good heated up with almond milk, topped with berries and almond butter. After yesterday’s adventures, we chilled at the house, and when Liv went to bed,…

Dijon chicken with sundried tomatoes and quinoa
Ahhhh, Sunday <3 It feels so nice to take it easy after a long day of teaching, and my favorite night owl decided to sleep in with me. We woke up to see our favorite woodpecker, snacking out of the hummingbird feeder. Breakfast: (oats with Sun Warrior, defrosted cherries and almond butter + tea)…

Woke up to a lovely surprise this morning…. That liquid stuff that falls from the sky. We don’t see too much of that over here 😉 As hard as it was to crawl out of bed, I LOVE going to work in the rain. I think it’s so cute seeing everyone walking around with their…

I didn’t think it was possible, but this little face continues to get cuter every day… and continues to amaze me with how quickly she’s growing and developing, her funny expressions, tiny laughs, smiles and movements. 3 crazy amazing months 🙂 What’s going on right now: -She’s starting to really understand her hands and feet.…

We’re all out
Whenever Bella’s food dish is empty, she’ll clank the bowl and then walk over to us, as if to say, “You hear that, fools? I’m outta food. Feed me.” So you can imagine the fury that was unleashed when I walked over to the pantry, grabbed her bag of food and a few measly kernels…

It’s been a crazy week over here. -Tom flying nights (again- oh how I loathe night flights. When he gets home in the middle of the night, he calls me to wake me up so I can take Bella downstairs and hold her when he comes in. If she hears the door open from upstairs,…

The sound of silence
We enjoyed last night’s taco dinner sans the usual background music of the TV. Our satellite provider was having some issues, so we turned the TV off for the night. I can’t believe how peaceful it was without it.. but I will be excited to catch up on Giuliana and Bill later today 🙂 Work…

Like I’m sure many of you do, I have Pinterest boards for everything: recipes to try, fun stuff to do with Liv, ideas for the Pilot, workouts, quotes and motivation, etc. I also have a style board that I pin to occasionally- I especially love outfit and hair ideas. The hair ideas have been fun…

Oh spin bike, we meet again. Thanks for the booty-kicking. I appreciate that. We got new spin bikes at work, and WHOA, they are amazing. I love the fact that the screen shows wattage (power), cadence, heart rate, distance and time. (The bottom left button enables you to create a “stage” that will track your…
