Isnt' this view a hundred times better than my messy closet? :) Hubby took this picture in our hotel room while we were in San Francisco! I honestly think this picture makes my belly look smaller than it truly is. No really. Ask my husband. I've already gained 15 lbs (probably 17 by this

We are officially back from San Fran! It was SUCH a good time and I have tons to recap...including a few blogger meet-ups! Boo to work! But, YAY for reuniting with my baby boys! I missed them LIKE A CRAZY PERSON! I, however, DID NOT miss work. At all. Not even a smidge. Nope. None. Kinda

 We arrived in San Fran LATE LATE last night. It was 1:30 am pacific time (3:30 am midwest time). Probably the latest I've stayed up in 3 years. I actually only slept 3 hours...woke up and feel like a million bucks. Funny  how that never happens when I have to wake up with the baby after only 3

From Day 1, I knew I wanted the new nursery to have stripes on the walls. It was just a vision I had in my head. I love the sleek modern look of it!  Once I picked my fabric, which you can see here, I decided that the stripes needed to be gray and white. Do you know how long I looked on line for

I guess it depends on if you define "better" by "better work ethic" or "better attitude".  My new cleaning lady is cleaning for me today. And although she may be better at cleaning the floor then this little one... ....I doubt she will be near as enthusiastic!   And there's no WAY her hair

Someone I know turned THIRTY THREE last month. Wasn't me. Since I can say I am still in my 20's. Well. I can say that for the next 14 days at least. Ahem. I'd say 33 looks pretty darn good on him. What do you think? I'm a lucky woman! Unfortunately, he was out of town for his actual birthday

What's on your Superbowl menu? When it comes to parties...I usually like to cater. I know...lazy, but I am not the queen of making great appetizers. Since my hubby decided that he would make his famous chili, which you can find the recipe & step by step instructions HERE, I knew I could handle

I have no idea how I could have gotten pink eye. This is what my eye looked like last night. And this was actually almost 12 hours after I started the medication. It looked a lot worse on Tuesday night. So much worse...that I wouldn't want to disgust you with a picture. I'm trying to be
