Do I Really Want Another Baby?

Amazing how just a short while ago, I said I was doing everything I can to be in the best physical and financial shape before we started trying. Started from the bottom and now we're here. And now we're...HERE??? Beyonce was last week and let me tell you, the woman can put on an amazing show! Everything from the production to the singing to the dancing....spectacular! The only concert that was

#ThrowbackThursday: Bear and his ride

We bought this trike for him when he turned one and he hasn't spent much time in it because he drags his feet whenever we stroll him. Hopefully, we can teach him how to pedal (we've tried in the past) and it'll be easier for us to push him!

We Officially Have a Preschooler!

This week kicks off Bear entering school. He only goes to school Tuesdays and Thursdays for the time being but we hope to take him five days a week soon. Here are pics from the first day: [gallery ids="4509,4510,4511,4512" type="rectangular"] After I picked him up yesterday, we celebrated by going to the park and getting an ice cream bar: [gallery ids="4513,4514" type="rectangular"] How exciting!! Grown up so fast!!

Being a Miser Can Be a Good Thing Sometimes #preschool #lunch

It's funny when you get older, you become a bit more conservative with your funds. I remember the days when I was a college student and I felt I was ballin' with my $10. (Hell, I still feel that way now.) Yet nowadays, with a looming preschool bill coming up, I'm finding different ways to cut back on things I don't really need to do as often as before. Notice

If I Could Turn Back The Hands of Time

I apologize for the lack of posts. I haven't been on vacation, nor have I been unusually busy. I'll be honest - I've been lazy. Queen Lazy. Lazy rules everything around me, lazy. Mayor of Lazyville. But I'm back and with news...are you ready? Are you sure you're

You Need to Invest in Munchkin's Bath Crayons!

I have a toddler who likes to paint. And I don't mean little dainty, staying within the lines type of paint. He likes to get messy. He loves to get colorful. I know this because I spent the past week cleaning paint off my carpet twice.

The Awesome Reasons Why I'm All For Extended Breastfeeding

[caption id="attachment_1229" align="alignnone" width="1080"] Yes, that's us! [/caption] It wasn't until I actually became a mother when I realized how breastfeeding is kinda looked down upon. It was a shock. Throughout pregnancy I kept hearing how breast was best and even the first few months of Bear's life, that's all I heard. And then a funny thing happened - he turned 1. Then he turned 2. And as we're more than halfway

Happy Father's Day!

Today, I'm celebrating my husband (and our fathers, by distance) by honoring him for being such an amazing father to our Bear. Maks has really stepped up and gone above and beyond and Bear is just his BFF. So, babe...I salute you today!
