Of Nick Swisher and Legos

July 10, 2010

Lego just recently moved into their flagship store in Rockefeller Center, and Bubba and I were invited to attend the Grand Opening. I jumped at the chance to check it out both because my son is an avid Duplo fan, and well, mommy wanted to see Nick Swisher in person. Let’s be honest. Nick Swisher [...]

I just can’t help myself. I have to share these amazing photos that my friend Helene at Hellybee Photography took of my mom, my sister, the kids and I. Words really cannot express how much I love these pictures… but I will try. My Heart: *sigh*

Empire State of Mind

November 13, 2009

Whew. Well, we’re back in the city and honestly it feels amazing. This trip back to California was just what I needed. We missed daddy terribly, but it was good for him to put all of his energy into his first midterm (which he got a B on, yay!). He missed us too… I think [...]

October 18, 2009

Four years ago, I was a floundering mess. Although I had a decent job, I had just gotten out of an unhealthy relationship with a man and was trying desperately to find the path that would lead to my happiness and certainty of my future. I just didn’t know it. I was 26 years old [...]

October 15, 2009

… on a jet plane… I’ll only be gone for two weeks. Yes, I caved. I’ve decided to take the kids back to California to spend Halloween with grandparents and friends.

Where Does the Time Go?

August 19, 2009

Today our baby girl is 11 months old. I have been telling people that she was 10 months old up until yesterday. Not 10 1/2 months, not “almost 11 months”, but 10 months. Today she is 11 months. That makes her almost one year old. I can hardly believe it. With all the craziness going [...]

Happening. Very. Fast.

July 29, 2009

I know that this blog was supposed to be about my experience moving to the big apple and everything in between, but life has gotten totally hectic and I haven’t had the extra hour to document it. I do find the time to Tweet, however, and it usually happens when I am nursing. I also [...]
