  • Well….this has been quite a year…

    I hope you are all doing well.  What an unbelievable time to be alive. It’s certainly scary and uncertain times, but I have faith it’s going to be okay.  We are at least all in this together. I don’t want to focus too much on what’s going on in the world here, we have plenty…

  • Christmas Recap

    I cannot believe how quickly the holiday season flew by this year!  Thankfully we were able to fit in a lot of Christmas cheer in a short period of time (and with a minimal amount of meltdowns to boot!). We kicked off the season by heading up to Indian Head Resort.  This is the third…

  • Baby #2

    Let’s just say baby #2 is a game changer, especially when you have a toddler at home.  While it’s been challenging I’m finding having a newborn the second time around so much easier than the first time!  I don’t know if it’s because Baby C is super chill or if I’m some sort of magical…

  • I’m Back…

    We’ve been a tad busy since I last checked in.  I had been meaning to write several entries over the course of the last year but they will remain in my pending posts file. Well first of all, if you don’t follow me on social media, we had another baby!  We had a baby boy…

  • Summer Check In

    Is everyone staying cool out there?  This is the hottest summer I can remember!  I just got  back from a brief stroll around the neighborhood with Soy Bean and I’m exhausted. I can’t believe it’s already August!  I feel as though the summer has flown by yet we’ve been out of school forever.  I’m torn…

  • 3 Years…

    I just wanted to write a quick post.  A few days ago the hubby and I celebrated 3 years of marriage.  I can’t believe how much has changed over the last few years.  We had a baby, bought a house, adopted a dog…the list goes on. Marriage is certainly not easy because life is not…

  • Pupdate

    Thank you Adrienne for the term.  So cute. What’s also cute?  My dogs! Guess who said his first word…Soy Bean! Guess what it was…Daisy! I’m a jealous that I’ve been taking care of Soy Bean his whole life and we’ve only had Daisy for three weeks yet her name is his first word?  Well, let’s…

  • Summer Fun

    I’m exhausted but I’m loving this summer schedule.  Today I felt a little anxious because July seems to be going a bit too fast for me.  I want to savor summer as much as possible and enjoy every second with my little guy. Yesterday I took him to the beach for the first time.  I…

  • What I Hope Your Kids Know

    Okay, so I realize I’m fairly new at this whole mom gig, but I have been teaching kids for quite some time.  I’ve worked with kids who have summer homes and I’ve worked with kids who have no home.  I’ve taught kids who receive free lunch and I’ve taught kids who have personal chefs at…

  • Summer Update

    So if you’re from Mass you know we’ve been living in basically the most uncomfortable hot yoga studio for the last week.  I don’t even want to think about our electric bill since we’ve been running the central air non stop. It’s certainly thrown a wrench in my summer plans of getting out and walking…

  • Meet Daisy

    Okay guys, I think my husband and I are officially crazy. Either that or we need to go into the puggle retirement home business… Please welcome the newest member of our family, Daisy.  Daisy is an 11 year old puggle we rescued last week. So here’s the story.  Last week I was a little bored…

  • Year One: Working Mom Edition

    Well first I want to talk about Soy Bean’s first birthday.  Success!  For his party we kept it simple.  I order a few jungle themed decorations, matching shirts, and we had pizzas delivered and made salads.  We kept the party small with just family and my husband made this amazing cake.  I think he should…
