The last few days were the longest days of my life. I was trucking along with my pregnancy, most of the nausea gone, belly getting bigger but not huge, feeling the first kicks when – BAM – I got a call from the nurse. I had passed my 1st trimester prenatal testing with flying colors, [...]
Baby Gender: Wishing for A Little Girl
I’m 10 weeks pregnant, and there’s one consistent thought that keeps swirling through that sometimes forgetful “mommy brain” of mine. Will I finally get the little girl I’ve been dreaming of my entire life? Before I reveal more of my personal feelings about this matter, I should clarify something.

Homemade Magic Shell
My kids like sweets as much as any other kid, so every now and again I like to give them a special treat. It’s fun to be able to give them a treat I can feel good about and really enjoy with them, rather than feeling guilty. We have a lot of food allergies [...]

“Touch A Truck” is back in less than a month on June 8th at Qualcomm Stadium and we just can’t wait! An event to raise money for children’s cancer is amazing enough but of course that is not all. Children (big and small) can see every kind of truck imaginable. Climb in and on, honk [...]
Fashion Friday: Maternity Clothes – Tips For A Gorgeous Wardrobe
