Breakfast Club
In my fam, we’re all big fans of going out for breakfast. Any day of the week, you can call someone up and they’ll meet you to eat.. sometimes it’s a smaller group of 5 or so, and other times, there will be 15 of us on the Blue Willow patio. Yesterday’s bfast was out…

(“floating on the pool in a raft” wasn’t quite as catchy) 😉 Swimsuit shopping is kinda like jeans shopping: you either don’t mind it, or absolutely hate it. I don’t mind it that much, but I’m a big fan of all things shopping-related, so there ya go. Here are some of my swimsuit shopping strategies:…

Took a walk on the wild side with dinner last night… Ok, not so much. Bella was excited, though! Every time she eats chicken, it’s like she’s enjoying it for the very first time. Here’s what happened when I tried to photograph her crazy chicken dance moves: She’s outta control 😉 So while dinner wasn’t…

One of the girls at work is about 37 weeks pregnant, and I can’t help but look at her belly and think “I miss that.” Especially yesterday, when it was my first time teaching Zumba at work without my favorite dance partner… Here are some of the things I miss, and don’t quite miss, about…

Ohhhh hey 🙂 What a day over here. Hope yours has been fun and productive as well! (love spring flowers) It was my second day back, and I thought today might be even harder than yesterday since it’s longer. The good news is that I’m not feeling quite as anxious as I was yesterday…. having…

I’d say a 10k, but not quite a marathon 😉 – You have to train or practice for the main event. You need to know what you’re going to do in advance, or it can get a little messy (like the merengue I made up at 11 last night… thank goodness I remembered it today.…

Zumba while you werk
Sometimes, cactus reminds me of the Pilot. That seems like a weird thing to say, but he is fascinated with it, especially since he grew up in the South. It’s weird to him that many Tucson homes have deadly plants in their yard, which is understandable. On the other hand, greenery and trees are kinda…
Read More →Focus On: Weight Watchers
I’m heading back to work this morning, so in the meantime, I wanted to bring you a Focus On post that I didn’t feel quite qualified to write. When I first tried to lose weight, my stint with Weight Watchers was very short-lived, since I really didn’t know how to choose healthy foods at the…

It’s end of an era over here… Two nights ago was Liv’s first night in her crib and also without her swaddle. We figured it was time to stop since she busts out of it every night anyway and she can roll over from back to tummy. She’s almost too big for the bassinet, so…
