8/21: Thoughts from the week

-Thank you so much for all of the awesome car seat tips and recommendations! I’m excited to check out the brands the you listed and decide soon. Little miss is getting to be too tall for her seat, and while we’re going to keep her rear-facing as long as possible, she’ll be more comfortable in…

How do you like your almond butter?

(Besides the direct transfer from spoon to face) Thank you so much for all of the kind words about Tucker’s return. Within minutes of putting the post up, my friend Carrie found him on Craigslist! He’ll be back home with my family today. Social media is an incredible thing, indeed.  While I waited for news…

Looking for Tucker- found!!

No *real* post today.. I’m in a sad mood and have been in a bit of a funk. No run this morning- I looked at my planner last night to see that I had an early appt so I quickly texted my friend to cancel some other things and my family’s dog, Tucker has been…

Time for a toddler seat

Liv wants to walk more than anything. She pulls herself up on whatever she can -whether it’s a stable surface or not, like a pillow- and takes a step away from it. She hasn’t quite figured out the whole strength/balance combo when it comes to walking, but I love the way she just goes for…

Running or snoozing + Jump Rope Strength Workout

I’m running right now. Well, I’m *supposed* to be running right now, so let’s hope that I actually woke up on time, got dressed and made it out there. A friend is meeting me, so that’s always good motivation to not be a bad friend bum and get myself up and at ’em. I don’t…

Things I can laugh about now

(Head’s up: some of these are a little gross, but the Family page is also the TMI page) -The fact that Tom and I used to celebrate when we would get Livi to fall asleep before the Jewel lullaby CD was over. (Sometimes we had to play it two or three times before she would…

5 Years

You know this thing we have going on? I kinda like it.  The way you smell like jet fuel when you get home from a flight, the way you know to catch me when I jump into your arms, the way Olivia smiles at you and kicks her feet because she’s so happy to see…

Meg: Recent buys

Thank you all SO much for the sweet words about my new haircut! I’m rocking it with confidence thanks to your compliments 🙂 Every so often I will attempt to get dressed and end up hating everything I try on. This is when I know it’s either time to do laundry, or hit up the…

8/17: Friday Faves

-Wedding weekend! Our anniversary is tomorrow- I can’t believe so much has happened in the past 5 years. 3 military moves, 3 deployments, a house, a baby, traveling, adventures with the pups, hard times, amazing times, shenanigans. It feels like yesterday I was checking him out in between glances at my accounting book in Starbucks…

Surprises and spice

I was like Christmas today. First, I got to sleep in. The Pilot has been flying and working nights all week, so I haven’t seen him very much. He got home past midnight last night and we were all in bed, I gave him a groggy smooch and passed back out, and this morning, I…
