Country Escape

November 15, 2011

My mom flew in from California on Thursday, so as you can imagine my life has been very peaceful the past four days. We’re all just a little bit more grounded when she is around. She takes care of us, but mostly she takes care of me. It’s the only time in my life lately [...]

Silent Tsunami

November 2, 2011

October is usually my second favorite month of the year. I love the changing of the seasons, the introduction of all things pumpkin to every menu, dressing up in costumes and watching my kids enjoying the excitement of Halloween. We spent time at the Union Square Greenmarket a couple of weeks ago, gathering our gourd [...]

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.

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 been such a treat to be able to write over at Babble’s Being Pregnant. 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. This pregnancy is totally, entirely different than my first two, and it just goes to show that you [...]

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. Being that Zoe is [...]

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 [...]
