I have been torn. First: as I’ve said a million times- I am poor. Like, really poor. But, my house/condo/townhouse is 1100 sq feet and by March will house my husband, myself, Hudson, Sawyer & Truman, two dogs and a cat. That is a LOT of life in 1100 square feet. So, I have to [...]

Pictured above is just a small fraction of the hand-me-down clothing (even though like HALF still had tags!) I received in the mail from bloggin’ mama Kerri and her adorable little girl Ella. If you haven’t yet read her blog, then you really should. She is a photographer which just makes the parenting adventure even [...]

But somewhere along the lines I must have done something right. My friends threw me a surprise 20th birthday party almost 7 years ago and it was amazing. I am reallllly intuitive and I think pretty much impossible to surprise. They had this amazing party and I would have been totally surprised had two of [...]

So, I have been using Etsy for like 1 millisecond. And in that one millisecond, I bought a banner for Hudson’s birthday party, an idea which I blatantly stole from Kirsten, of The McClelland Family, custom invitations for Hudson’s birthday party (score! They were fill in but the nice lady is printing all the info [...]

It’s true. I mean, I have no idea how other kids react- but homeboy is TOUGH. For example today: He is cruising around the bedroom crawling and pulling up on furniture, walking between furniture (while holding on) and then grabs the diaper pail to use as something to support himself. I had just emptied the [...]

how out of control freaking ADORABLE Baby Gap girls clothes are!? I am not a huge fan of the baby boy stuff there, though by 18 months the clothes get pretty cute. BUT THE GIRLS! Oh my dear sweet little baby girl is going to be sooooo freaking spoiled. As spoiled as my shoestring budget [...]

or do I totally need this bag!? Damn you, 80′s purple and your daily emails enticing me to spend money I don’t have!! Honey- if you’re reading- I love you and want this purse! Pretttttty pleaseeee.

It started out well enough. I woke up at 730 to feed my little guy a baba and get ready for my doctor’s appointment at 915. I was ready early because I planned to go get Hudson’s shots done while we were at Kaiser, as well as my blood work for my 1st trimester. But, [...]

Scott was off for most of the day so we got to have family day today, which was really fun. We went to El Super which was magical and then headed to Lullaby Lane to check out some ideas for the twins and the new room that we will start to build sooner than later. [...]

This morning I was able to get into Kaiser at 10AM for an appointment. I saw a new doctor and she decided I would need to get a few bags of fluids before I could go on with my day. That was OK except I guess I got the newbie. Homegirl stuck me multiple times [...]
