No AB, I cry
There’s a serious almond butter drought in our house. Hemp seeds filled the void for today, but thank goodness the Pilot is making a grocery run for some necessities while I’m back at work. When you go through at least a jar a week, it’s smart to have backup. I made a rookie mistake at…

That song has been stuck in my head ALL DAY. I just love it 🙂 The only wild animal picture I have today: So there ya go. Later this afternoon, the Pilot, Liv and I headed to the mall to get my bro’s birthday presents- he turns 17 tomorrow! He’s always been so “little” to…

The Pilot’s girlfriend
I’ve gotten a few requests about giving relationship tips, dealing with deployments, how the Pilot and I keep from fighting, stuff of the like. My only real relationship tips are: you’re a team, don’t nitpick the little things that don’t really matter, and do something everyday to show the other person you love them. As…

Hope you’ve had an awesome Thursday! <3 Some things from the day: -A posture and balance workshop. We used small balls and tennis balls for stretch and balancing poses, and wow. I feel 3 inches taller and like a NOODLE. My favorite one was on our back, placing a small firm ball on the back…

Back when we thought Livi was a boy, we couldn’t agree on a name. We had a list of favorites, but nothing stood out. (I still really love the name Remington, though!) When we found out the baby was indeed a girl, picking a name was a lot easier. Even though we had a few…

Feels good to be home 🙂 Today ended up being a longer day than anticipated, so lunch break was a blitz through the house to grab more food and clothes teach some more (it was a Zumba day! Always a great thing) and then back home to my favorite people. (I’m sad that picture turned…
Read More →Why buy vintage
Hello, it’s Meg again! I saw this fashion post as an opportunity to talk about shopping for vintage clothing, something I LOVE and do quite often. Sometimes buying vintage can be intimidating. The clothing isn’t new, sometimes it needs altering, and the fit is almost always different than modern clothing. So, what are the upsides?…
Read More →Nudge Fry
Apparently I need to work on my stir fry skills. I guess you need to flip and stir with vigor? I just munched my kettle corn and pushed the veggies and chicken around in the pot (we don’t have a wok). The Pilot mentioned my “nudge fry” skills… but stopped teasing me when he ate…

What a crazy day <3 Tax fun. (I use the word “fun” loosely. Haha) Egg-rito. Conference call. Turbo. (will post a review on this DVD tomorrow! ahsdhakwe073749hnekdnU(!)#&HN.) First day using cloth diapers (for Liv). Avoiding researching computers. The Pilot said I’m getting a new one this weekend because mine is on life support. He…

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,…
