Hey! How was your weekend? Anything exciting happen? We had an awesome, restful and low-key weekend over here. Yesterday, the Pilot told me to go get a massage (twist my arm, eh?) and it was probably the best I’ve ever had- my hair is still greasy from the oils, haha. After my experience with prenatal…

I’ve always thought the Pilot and I make a pretty good team, but it’s even more apparent now with a little one in the house. We don’t have to ask or say anything -we just help each other out. He stays home with Livi on Saturday while I go to work, I’ll get to see…

Wake up slow
After one night of nightmares (which I wrote about), the next night I woke up to a fork in the bed. Not even joking. Bella took my “lunch fork” out of my work gym bag and brought it into our bed. When I rolled over, I thought my leg was on something wet, which was…

The Pilot came home early from work today! He had to fly balls early so he was finished with the day earlier. I was grateful because I forgot to switch the carseat base from his SUV back to my car, so Liv and I just chilled at home with Bell today. Lots of songs were…

Good morning! Happy new week to ya 🙂 I think we all woke up with a case of the “smushy face” over here. Sometimes when Bella wakes up, half of her face is smushed up and we’ll call her smushy face. I slept horribly last night. I have no idea if it was the wine…

To all the dads out there, including the fur dads and the men who help care for others. Especially to this guy: Just when I thought he couldn’t be any more amazing, he became a dad. Watching him love and help me take care of our little girl… well, everyday I wonder how I got…

Monsoon swoon
I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to do for my last class today. I was supposed to assist pool, and my pool uniform is nowhere to be found. It was in the locker room (along with a ton of other pool uniforms) and got misplaced in the hustle and bustle. I figured I’d…

Look! Ice cubes in my coffee: Thank you for all of the amazing iced coffee suggestions! I can’t wait to try Pioneer Woman’s recipe and make some coffee or almond milk ice cubes, too. For this morning, I just made the coffee and put it in the freezer to let it chill while I fed…
