One of my friend’s from home had a baby (her 1st) in June. She called me last week saying that she still wasn’t fitting into ANYTHING and how was she going to be able to dress up for work (she’s a teacher and starts back up in September) comfortably? Oh… I remember those days. I [...]
A little more excitement than I needed on a boat ride around the harbor…
Life with Brian is nothing if not exciting. We are similar in so many ways… we love dogs, we love the water, we love running. We have similar values, we both appreciate the simple things in life, we are each other’s best friend. But there are differences, all right. I’m a very nervous person by [...]

One day last week, I was watching all 4 of Audrey and Matt’s boys in their back yard. 6-year old William was climbing over a rather formidable pile of to-be-discarded tree trunks. 5-year old Alex was climbing all over a rock that’s about 5′ tall. 3-year old Henry was demanding asking that I please push [...]

It’s not pretty. It’s not even something I like to admit. But… it is what it is. I HATE lip hair. I do. I hate it. My mom and my sister were blessed with blonde leg hair, blonde arm hair and yes… even lip hair. Saying it lightly… I was not so lucky. Dark leg [...]

The Pelican immediately accepts the Crane’s invitation, saying that no-one invites him anywhere. The Crane [...]

My sons love to dress up in costumes and pretend their superheros! It’s something they do every single day with each other. They’re either Batman or Captain America or Superman or Spiderman or Indiana Jones (he’s a superhero in their eyes!). I never really let them go beyond dressing up in a costume. I’m not [...]

Last Thursday night, Vera and I hosted a Twitter Party for Simply Orange Juice. We’ve hosted tons of Twitter Parties together in the past, but there was something extra special about the other night. Simply Orange Juice chose the theme to be… Simple Changes to a Better You. We actually thought the theme was perfect [...]

Yesterday I spent the afternoon with my boys and husband at the Style School Event in NYC… we woke up extra, extra early (ahem… 5AM) to head into the City together. I got the boys all “handsome” and ready to go and everyone was super excited for a day in the best City in the [...]
My little “big” Henry
I snapped a photo of Henry yesterday at the Play-Doh table at the Style School event in NYC… there’s just something about this photo that warms my heart — He’s a little boy (granted I still call him a baby…), but this photo makes him look like a BIG BOY.
