Favorite Moments in Boston (plus a recipe!)

October 10, 2011

I just can’t contain our Boston vacation into one post. There were too many amazing moments packed into a 3 day weekend to keep them wrapped into one entry, not to mention the amazing food we tried throughout. Aside from our amazing stay at the Four Seasons Boston, we had such a great time walking [...]

October 10, 2011

Last week, Jack and I swabbed his room for germs and sent them away to Dr. Tanner’s Laboratories to study the results of our germ testing. The following Friday, Jack and I held a play date of sorts at home to talk about the results and discuss the benefits of being more aware of germs [...]

A Perfect Family Vacation in Boston

October 6, 2011

There are precious few times in life when you can say that you took the vacation of a lifetime with your children. Fewer still when your lives are so utterly compromised with school, work and the daily monotony of life that even family meals are scarce. During a very brief and rare break from dental [...]

Babbling at Being Pregnant

September 30, 2011

It’s the perfect outlet for me to talk about all-things-pregnancy related-something that is much needed, even though this is my third baby.

Serenity in the Simple Things

September 29, 2011

Life has been busy lately. I feel like I say that all the time, but it’s really been crazy bananas recently. I’m learning how to juggle being a self employed, work at home mother while keeping my parenting duties first and foremost. I have always considered myself a fast learner, the tricky part is foreseeing [...]

Stroller Obsession: Maclaren Volo (plus a giveaway!)

September 29, 2011

As the kids have gotten older, we’ve gotten more mobile around the city via public transportation. Where we used to walk for blocks and blocks, two kids tucked in the stroller and myself armed with a latte, we now pack light and simply walk to the nearest bus or subway station.

Germs in the City

September 28, 2011

Even as a “seasoned” parent of almost three, germs are one of those things that freak me out the very most. I relaxed a bit after my second baby was born, but I still carry around the WetOnes and hand sanitizer wherever we go. NYC is dirty filthy, and seeing my kid’s hands on the [...]

(Pre)ma Ballerina

September 26, 2011

Before I had Jack, I remember being terrified of having a little girl. I hadn’t exactly been a walk in the park to raise myself, and knew very well that any little girl that came as a product of me would be the ultimate payback for the trouble I gave my own mother. I struggled [...]

Savvy in Stella Industries

September 25, 2011

Having a little girl is a lot of fun. Not just because I get to put her hair in braids, or stay up telling stories about how many things she will teach her new baby brother, or how much she loves to spin and twirl as though she is Angelina Ballerina. I get to live [...]
