Tips for goals + random resolutions

I’m usually right there in the middle of the New Years hoopla of big changes. While I don’t like the pressure of an ambiguous date -if you want to make a change, why not just do it then, in the moment?- I can definitely agree with the fresh, crispy feeling of a new year, chance…

In the New Year…

2012 was an amazing, amazing year. It definitely went by a little more quickly than I would have liked, but was a life-changer. Livi was born in the very beginning of the year (I’m still in shock that her birthday is next week!) and we’ve also added a fur sister for Bella. Our house and…

Turn over a new leaf

It’s been quite the whirlwind Friday so far! It started nice and early: (the other alarm is from one Christmas morning when I woke up at 7 and Liv was still sleeping) For the past 8 months, I’ve had a tiny human alarm clock. She sings beautiful songs and does funny things to wake up-…

Back to the inspiration board

Oh, hey Monday. You sneak up on us so quickly 😉 Since I’m on another breakfast kick (eating the same thing everyday until I get sick of it) let’s talk about inspiration. Yesterday was the day of the half marathon that I thought I’d be walk/running. It was fun to have a specific fitness event…

Hi, Thai

I love the weekend. So does Bell, who is definitely back to 100% after her night of sickies. She’ll shake her tail off at everyone, beg for chicken, snuggle… and give you the stink eye when you leave to go to dinner. The Pilot had to work a little later last night to catch up…

Dinner by the bro

As much as I like getting dolled up for a night out, I also appreciate the places where I can wear lululemon and moccasins. For dinner tonight, the Pilot and I went to one of the restaurants at work. Since it’s a health resort, there is an amazing abundance of healthy options. It’s lower on…

Inspiration Station

Every year, I’ll do a little arts and crafts project: an inspiration board to hang in the closet, and help me remain mindful of my goals throughout the year. I’ve fallen in love with Pinterest, but there’s something to be said about having a tangible board in an easily visible place. Here’s my board for…

Inspiration time

To cap off an incredible weekend of festivities, –Christmas Eve dinner at my dadoo’s house –Christmas brunch at our house we all took naps and relaxed yesterday afternoon –I watched Christmas Story twice. Once with my eyes open, and once with them closed- and then went over to my mom’s house for Christmas dinner and…

Productivity Mojo

Heyyyyy 😀 How are ya? Hope your weekend is wrapping up nicely. Flowers for the week: “Pumpkin trees”!! So insanely cute. When I saw that at Trader Joe’s in the flowers section, I thought they were fake. Nope- real baby pumpkins (or pumpkin lookalikes?) SO fun and Halloweenie. We were animals today. The Pilot tackled…

Flatbread Atrocity

Hey friends hey 🙂 How’s your morning going?? Loved reading your responses as to whether a TV should be banned from the bedroom. For now, I’m going to live it up, but when the Pilot is back, I’ll get rid of it. The flatbread dough I made yesterday was half success, half fail. Fail because…

Board to Inspire

Hi friends 🙂 How are ya? Hope you’re having a great morning so far <3 As y’all know, I’m kind of an anti-resolution girl. If I want to change something, I change it. There’s so reason to wait, or have the added pressure of an ambiguous date (ie New Years). I am however, an inspiration…
