In an effort to stay out of Laura and Chris’ way as they got ready for work, Kyle and I decided to take Patrick out to the beach to occupy him in the early morning hours. Only Kyle grabbed a hair clip from my purse thinking it was the house key so we ended up locked out and had to wait until Laura got up to let us back in. So basically we were standing outside the apartment in our PJs looking like homeless idiots for a while. Really embarrassing. Kyle and I alternated… Read more >

Can I just show all the yummy things I’ve been stuffing my face with lately in one quick post? Life before Thanksgiving did exist. The last of the pumpkin cornbread muffins with eggs. And yet another savory breakfast. The to-go cup is because I was heading to MOPS after and wanted to be able to continue my decaf fueling there. We made pies! I actually can’t take any credit for this because I was holding P the whole time and another mom did 99% of the work for me. He had a meltdown… Read more >

This weekend was full of relaxing at home. Thank goodness! Last weekend I came down with mastitis and was way too ambitious for my own good. We went to a football game with a couple and their 6 month old on Saturday. And then traveled to the East Bay for a baby shower on Sunday. It was really fun, but I my suffer-in-silence-and-just-push-through-it approach completely backfired. Come Monday I felt like crap and it was just me and pacman left to our own devices. Raise your hand if you’re surprised by my stubbornness…nobody? Yeah that’s… Read more >

Turns out I eat a lot. 🙂 Ha. As if that’s a surprise. Here’s my 99% complete documented eats (second helpings noted). Breakfast: fried egg + 2 slices of chocolate cherry quickbread (half of one was eaten during the cooking process) Lunch: 3 slices of GF bread toasted and topped with avocado/egg salad + carrots + grapes + strawberries I get questions if I eat fruit (because I rarely show those little snacks) and the answer is YES! Of course! I tend to eat seasonally – so lately it’s been grapes, figs, strawberries, raspberries, and… Read more >

Oh my gosh you guys, I went to Costco yesterday and literally squealed in the aisles due to all the new (totally awesome) things I found. Even though we mostly stuck to our list, there were a few things I couldn’t help but get. The rest were added to my mental shopping list for next time though. Here are the highlights: Vicolo roasted tomato with goat cheese & fresh basil. I’ve made pizzas with their plain crusts several times, but never tried the already prepared ones. Costco is selling this two pack for cheap and… Read more >
