It's amazing to me how someone I love with all my heart can make me feel absolutely powerless, lost and angry. I call her my threenager - an alternate version of my beautiful, loving, sweet and kind little darling Madison. My first born, who for as long as I can remember has always been my [...]
There is usually at least one day a week where I feel like I can't get it together - the house is upside down, the laundry pile seems to be growing despite my best efforts and the girls are twirling on my very last nerve. These are the days I'm usually wishing grandma and grandpa [...]
Motherhood is the strangest collection of emotions, it is the most overwhelming love for someone mixed with so much frustration, guilt, stress and sometimes anger. In one of my other posts I spoke about my mom guilt, the guilt I feel when I think I can't be at my best and am too tired to [...]
The intensity of my sleep deprivation this last month has been pretty insane and probably the worst I've ever experienced (Madison included). Mila turned one and it seems her sleep habits instantly changed from the moment she blew out the candle, but I expected big changes once she turned 1 as Madison did the same. [...]

Where you can appreciate a cool breeze, enjoy staying in a little bit more and relishing getting back into a routine. Now as a mom it has [...]
As of right now I still carry a big ol' diaper bag everywhere I go! I feel like when ever I don't have it I always end up needing an extra outfit for one of them or I'm in need of more wipes etc. So I'm the mom with the way-to-big bag, but I'm always [...]
I knew I wanted our little Mila's first birthday to be a magical day, but preparing a party for 50 guests with the littles running around while getting the house ready for hosting - I was feeling the pressure. I might have put an unrealistic goal on myself (lol) but I was ready to make [...]
A few of my favorite things : NARS blush in Orgasm : a peachy pink shimmery color. I've been using this one for years, and every time I depart from it to try something new, I always come crawling back! Clarins Instant Light Natural lip perfecter - Goes on soft, smells amazing but isn't [...]
