Amongst the assortment there stands a pair that, in this mom’s humble opinion, wins the blue ribbon for kid’s footwear: Crocs! They are adorable, affordable and beyond durable. Happy Fashion Friday! My little guy is obsessed with water. If he… Read more →
Simon and I recently attended a play date with some new friends from our neighborhood and their children. It was wonderful. The children played and the moms relaxed and chatted. We all snacked on some delicious homemade almond butter and crackers that my girlfriend Kate had made the day before. As soon as she told us she had made it… Read more →

We are, obviously, trying to encourage him to channel his brilliance toward areas deemed appropriate for artwork without, of course, crushing his artistic spirit… yadda yadda yadda. Until my… Read more →

My little boy is in bed and my hubby is working late tonight. I’m unwinding on the couch with a cup of Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea. I’m getting sleeeeeepy already. Night night! OMG OBSESSED!

Banana Shakes are a staple dessert at our house! They are creamy, healthy and, debatably, more delicious than ice cream. Bananas are packed full of potassium which is great for circulation and delivering oxygen to the brain, they are rich in iron which is vital for our blood and bananas can also lift your spirits and make you feel more… Read more →
What a beautiful book. I can barely get through reading On The Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman to Simon without tearing up. He loves to be read to and this has become one of our favorite books. It is so important for children these days (or in any day and age for that matter) to feel special and… Read more →
