Good morning! Happy Saturday to you 🙂 Hope you’re having an amazing weekend so far. [She was in another world for that pic, but usually Bell will give me a smug face when the Pilot is petting her. Like “See? I win. Be jealous.”] The Pilot and I got a lot done around the casa…

I find it hilarious that I’m writing about preg fashion while wearing sweatpants and an old T-shirt… they’re also the same sweatpants I put on when I got home from work last night. What can I say? I like them. That’s why I’m writing this post- I need help! In the first trimester, I made…

It’s been a little while since I’ve done one of these posts (here are the first and second), and a lovely reader let me know that it was about time for another one. I can’t believe I didn’t think of it (oh yeah, because my brain is gone), but as things continue to grow over…

It’s almost the weekend… and another day closer to being in San Diego, breathing in the ocean smells. I can’t wait 🙂 Lots of breakfast and random foods have been happening over here this week, because a favorite guy of mine had a flight upgrade. So this means open-faced sandwiches [Black rice bread, heated organic…

Sneaky protein sources
Good morning <3 Happy humpday- hope it’s an amazing day for you. I loved reading your pet peeves and tips for gym etiquette- keep ‘em coming! Since it’s still pretty chilly over here –we turned the heater on last night- all I wanted was something hot and toasty for breakfast. Bowl of oats and hot…

Read More →Nursery DIY: Name letters
Since we want the nursery to be done by the end of next week, that was the final push to finish the hanging nursery letters with the baby’s name. These letters have been the bane of my existence. You see, I’m not a crafty person. But, when I found out that ordering the hanging letters…
