Our son wakes up at least a half hour before us every morning. He plops down in the bed with us until it’s time to get up and get moving. It’s pretty much my favorite time of the day. I love the little bonding we do even that early in the morning. One morning while […] Read more…

She’s Here! Dates + Deets
On May 11th, I was put on partial bed rest. My world came to a screeching halt in an instant. To go from my usual routine to just about being dormant was a real eye opener. I was still working from home and so thought if this was “bed rest”, perhaps I could get through […] Read more…

When it comes to Father’s…
Every May is a big deal. Mother’s all over are honored. There are brunches, dinners, flowers, jewelry and anything else you can think of. We typically go all out to honor our mothers.
