This year was supposed to be my year of really paring down my wardrobe, re-evaluating my purchases, and getting a handle on mine/our budget... I'm just going to say this in all caps :: THAT DID NOT HAPPEN. It started with a few "treat myself" gifts after Declan's birth and just spiraled from there. Things... Continue Reading →
The past 4 months with Baby B (aka Declan!) have been a whirlwind. The first month was HARD, especially once Kenny went back to work full-time and I was home by myself. There were times that my mom would come over just so I could nap and/or shower while she watched Declan. The only times... Continue Reading →
When we first found out we were having a baby, we started making plans for creating his nursery. We have one more bedroom in the house that needs to be completely overhauled - new drywall and ceiling, new windows, new lighting fixture, updated closet space, increased and updated electrical outlets.... like I said, completely overhauled....

It feels like a lifetime since I last sat down to write anything here. And as everyone else has been saying, we're in a completely different world now. Not only that, I'M in a completely different world now - motherhood! K and I have just been hibernating since the birth of Baby Bach. He is... Continue Reading →

NEW YEAR. NEW DECADE. WHAAAAT?! The remainder of 2019 flew by in a blur for me. Training and starting a new job, the holidays, home projects and that pregnancy life made me feel so busy and frazzled by the time December ended. I'm definitely one of those people who view January 1 as a reset.... Continue Reading →
October may usher in that true Fall season, but November is my favorite. The weather really starts to turn cool/cold, I can cozy up in comfy sweaters with hot cocoa and a roaring fire, and it’s the start of the birthday and holiday season for my family. Pregnancy has really screwed with my mood the... Continue Reading →
This will be a very short post about my failure. The amount of books I read in the month of October was an epic 0. ZERO! I knew I was still having trouble getting my mind back into reading but I didn’t realize I was at zilch until I checked my goodreads account. I am... Continue Reading →
When K and I found out we were expecting, I was about 5 weeks along. I immediately made an appointment to verify, and then went back at 8 weeks for my full first prenatal exam and ultrasound. With barely any symptoms, even seeing the tiny little dot on the ultrasound felt so unbelievable. At my... Continue Reading →
With August 14th upon us (well tomorrow), my current 101 in 1,001 List is coming to an end. Anything that I didn't accomplish but still want to and anything that I want to push myself to do again will be added to the new list. In total I accomplished 41 of the 101 goals I... Continue Reading →
