Smell the popcorn

Oh friends, what a day. Nothing bad happened or anything like that, but I am done-skie after work. It feels very nice to curl onto the couch with a hefty bowl of popcorn. [<โ€”seasoned with nutritional yeast, garlic, chili powder and sea salt. Try it- so good] My schedule changes every day, and today I…

What to stock up on?

As you guys know, Iโ€™m kind of a shopping fanatic. Even though I love to shop more than [almost] anything, Iโ€™m also a super savvy shopper and rarely pay full price, whether itโ€™s through a sale, online deal or coupon. Iโ€™ve been doing the same thing with baby stuff. For example, our baby bedding (which…

New goat cheese lurve

Philly Outfit Picks

Iโ€™m the worst about packing clothes for a vacation. I go through all the โ€œwhat if I need this too?โ€ scenarios, end up totally overpacking, and then hating everything I brought with me. Iโ€™ve gotten more savvy over time by packing 3-4 shoes instead of 10, checking the weather, making lists and planning things out.…

The Great Diaper Debacle

When I first heard about the option of cloth diapering, I was an immediate fan. Itโ€™s better for the environment, itโ€™s less expensive (disposables are no joke), and it feels better for the baby. From all around, it sounded like a win-win-win situation. I mentioned it to my mom and she was all about it…

Itโ€™s been a very good day ๐Ÿ™‚ I started off the morning by heading over to the HLS brunch to say โ€œsee ya laterโ€, brought some almond butter back to our…

The center or an addition?

One of the books Iโ€™ve been reading about taking care of the baby after she arrives is Baby Wise. Baby Wise has mixed reviews, mostly because it focuses on more of a parent-directed feeding approach and schedule instead of child-directed approach to develop a routine. If you allow the child to settle into a routine,…
