Behold, the sweet Ace bandage of belly-lifting justice. Sexy, no? I was seriously stoked when the belly support wrap I ordered via Amazon arrived on Monday. Of course, I couldnโt wait to take it out for a spin and see how it felt. The instructions were pretty intense, considering itโs a belly wrap, but I…

you know the rest ๐ Last night was Bellaโs dream night. We took her for a long walk at the park โ which I especially enjoy since the Pilot and I can catch up on the day- and then to Frost for gelato. Vanilla for her: Pumpkin for him, and a peanut butter truffle for…
Read More →Birth Stories
Iโm obsessed with birth stories. I love reading them, learning the details of such a significant day in someoneโs life, and am especially intrigued because everyoneโs birth story is so different. I only know some of the details about the day I was born. Of course, I was late (a trait that has stayed with…

It had to happen. After posting about the dark chocolate almond milk yesterday, you guys started flooding my brain with amazing chocolaty almond suggestions.

DARK CHOCOLATE almond milk…

Greetings from the land of swollen ankles. We had a very busy, yet very fun-filled day, and after a full day of wearing tight stretchy jean crops, flats and being out in the sun, my ankles hate me. Itโs the first time theyโve gotten really swollen, so I have my feet propped up, chugging water,…

Good morning! Happy Sunday <3 Hope youโre relaxing and enjoying the weekend. We slept in late todayโฆ and it felt glorious. Last night, one of the Pilotโs good friends was in Tucson, so I finally had the chance to meet him. Itโs kind of a crazy story- the boysโ dads were in high school together…

Things have definitely slowed down over here. In the beginning of the 2nd trimester, I felt AMAZING. I was rocking out my workouts and almost felt my pre-pregnancy energy levels. Weights, cardio, flexibility- it was all there, and I wasnโt usually too tired to stick with my normal-ish routine [of course, there were some โI…
