I started blogging a little over two years ago. At the time, I had no idea where it would take me, I just wanted it to take me out of my yoga pants. Well, two years and lots of fun, learning, friendships, opportunities later I have been presented with my biggest opportunity to date. [...]
Decorating your child’s room can be quite a feat, can’t it? There’s a lot that has to go into it. It needs to be functional yet fun, have storage so they can easily pick up their room themselves, have character but be practical, and hopefully be a place that the kids just love to be! [...]
Being a mom is hard, isn’t it? I never really dreamed about being a mom when I was younger. So for me, it’s been a tough adjustment finding the ever elusive balance between doing everything for your kids & finding some ‘me time.’ Thankfully, I have a pretty awesome husband who helps give me the [...]
If you didn’t already know, I have lived in France periodically for the last 5-6 years of my life. It’s not quite as glamorous as you might think, I still do all the mundane things of life. It doesn’t make it easier knowing that the country I’m in is home to the Eiffel Tower & Louvre Museum. [...]
Hair is a funny, tricky, difficult, and sometimes frustrating thing. Everyone’s is different, so what works for me might not work for you. It’s affected by weather & other factors, so sometimes we just don’t know what we’re going to get. Then there’s the time we have to put into it and frankly, sometimes it’s [...]
I am always on a mission to find ways to be cute yet practical as a mom. If you’re a mom, you understand what I mean. It’s so tempting (and easy!) to wear sweats every day. But we don’t have to! Getting dressed up can boost your spirits, make you feel better about yourself, and [...]
Jet lag is kicking my bootie. Like, I shed tears before 8:00 am this morning. Mainly because jet lag is kicking my 6-year-old’s butt and he doesn’t fully understand the need to rest. Or at least that’s what I’m telling myself. It’s so weird how it takes your body to adjust. So anyway, a month [...]
As you may or may not know, our family travels a lot. With a husband from The Bahamas, me being from Southern California, and occasional travels to Europe, we get around. This might sound pretty glamorous to you, but let me break it down for ya. My husband doesn’t care for travel. He is a basketball player [...]
My baby turned 3. THREE, you guys. Three. It is so weird that I don’t have a baby anymore. We’ve been out of diapers for a while. No binkies. No baby blankets. No baby carriers. We’re done. He’s even getting pretty big for his car seat. I have mixed emotions about this. Well, nevermind, they’re [...]
So right now I am on a really big plane with a 3 year old and a 6 year old, sans husband, flying across the Atlantic Ocean. Craziness. Somehow we’ve learned to embrace this part of our lives and even somewhat enjoy it. (I can say that now that they’re out of the baby/toddler/diaper stages. [...]
