Oatie-nola and body bars
This is what can happen when you eyeball a baked goodie recipe: While we were at the store, I grabbed the ingredients to make more of Heather’s fabulous oaties (including regular unsalted butter. I still don’t understand why they make salted butter in the first place, and why I always buy it by mistake). After…

After staying away from Teavana for quite a while –it’s an expensive habit, and I like my teas from Sunflower Market just as much- we made a little caffeine stop today. Bzzzzz After a night of high hopes with the swaddling, she busted out of her swaddle every hour or so, screaming like an angry…

Flowers vino and a pizza picnic with three valentines (a baby, a man and a creature). How lucky does a girl get? 🙂 Hope that you had a fabulous night, too! This morning’s bfast was one of the usual suspects: (egg puff sandwich with greens, goat cheese and hummus, with strawberries and tea) I…

6 years ago, Bella was a Valentine’s Day gift from the Pilot. Same sassy face, 6 years later: We had gone to look at puppies one weekend, and I knew Bell was the one, so we decided to go back the following weekend. She came from a family here in Tucson –none of whom spoke…

We have a little Houdini on our hands…. lovely likes to bust outta her swaddle. (We like the Aden + Anais blankets- super soft and very light fabric) Swaddling is one of those things that always mystified me while I was pregnant –it seemed like putting a baby in a straightjacket- but after watching “Happiest…

Last night, I did something I haven’t done in 5 weeks: went to the gym! It felt so good to be back. I was cleared to workout again on Monday, but didn’t quite feel energized enough for a gym workout until last night. The Pilot was home, Liv had a full belly, so I…

1. It’s definitely fry-day over here! (Sorry for the bag pic, but I like my sp fries warm.. they taste better while driving) I’m kind of a sweet potato fry connoisseur, and they’re a relatively new thing in Tucson. A few restaurants started offering them only a couple of years ago. The best are at…

1. I just remembered I can drink kombucha again! Come here, you fizzy bottle of love. 2. Tom is the diaper king.. and I still kind of fail at it. Tom changes most of the diapers when he’s home, but when it’s just me, I’m just not as talented. Let’s just say when she had…

Rice cooker Italian quinoa
Good morning! Hope your day is off to a great start <3 Waffles with almond butter and jelly over here tea snuggles and teeny grunts and snores (coming from the lounger next to me). It’s a good day. The Pilot had to fly late last night, and since he’s been the dinner chef in our…

Meet Exhibit A of our breastfeeding woes: The Milk Queen, sleeping atop her Boppy throne So, posting about breastfeeding is a personal thing and TMI city, but I’ve been writing about it in hopes that it may help someone who encounters a similar situation, and open the doors to talk about it, since it’s one…
