You guys. Not only did I have a fantastic time with the fam in Cape Cod this past week (demolishing lobster rolls/ napping on the beach/ getting swept out to sea with my Mom/ playing high-stakes board games until midnight/ teaching my daughters how to properly pick up hermit crabs without accidentally ripping off their claws/ demolishing more lobster rolls) but I also got to hang out with THIS guy: That’s right, people, I saw Uncle Fe. (Here’s my recent post about {Read More}
Invisalign Approves Of My Snackiness.
August 16, 2013 By Leave a Comment
I could talk about my love for Invisalign until the cows come home and am thrilled to write this sponsored post for them. That said- all thoughts and opinions and AWESOME TEETH are my own. * In honor of National Smile Week (check out Invisalign’s Facebook page for some super cute images celebrating this holiday!), I thought I’d share a few more stories about how my smile actually came to be. I know I’ve blogged before about my childhood rabbit {Read More}
Cape Cod, AKA What Blog Addiction?

Yeah. So. I know I said I’d seeya all in a week…but I just love these pix and think they’re the wundiest. (I’ve taken over 400 so far. So that’s saying something.) Taken moments before Susannah walked directly out into the ocean, wearing all of her clothes. Dad/Uncle Peej does storytime. (Who’s the wiggleworm on the far left?) Nora loves Baby Garrett. LOVES. So much. A lot. Cheer up, Zu. Try some, Zu. Sitting in a cove with one of my favorite {Read More}

Green Giant’s Veggie Snack Chips Are My Go To. If My Fam Leaves Me Some.
August 9, 2013 By Leave a Comment
I love snacks. I love snacks. I think Snacks should be their own mealtime: Breakfast, Snacks, Brunch, Snacks, Lunch, Snacks, Dinner, Snacks…(and then a tapas-style Snacks before bed.) People who stop snacking after 8pm: I do not understand you. Folks who don’t experience 2pm/4pm/11pm hunger pangs: I do not understand you. But I am understood (and heard loud n’ clear) by Green Giant, especially with their new superstellar line of Veggie Snack Chips. They know that I want something delicious and different {Read More}
No Good, Very Bad Day. (Until Snacktime.)
August 8, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Yesterday was a tough day. It even started out tough. Despite my best (read: productive/attention/motherly) efforts, the girls were just feeling crazy. Like- wild, bickery, rambunctious, independent crazy. All throughout the morning, Nora responded to my requests of helping me straighten this part of her room/putting stuff back on that shelf/stop pulling even more things out of drawers by neeeeeding to play with that/taking things from the shelf/removing things from drawers. And Zu? Well, my darling youngest punctuated her independent proclamations {Read More}
Getting Outta Dodge And Packing Your Biggest Soccer Shorts.
August 7, 2013 By Leave a Comment
So, here’s where my mind is this week: The teensy, tinesy, wonderfully beachtacular part of Cape Cod where I spent magical summers as a kiddo. Also as a highschooler- one with a penchant for swim team-style bathing suits, despite the fact that even my veryverybest swimming efforts make me look like a howler monkey with a leg cramp. I also spent these summers wearing bucket hats. And soccer shorts that even a fully grown man would deem too baggy. Why did {Read More}
KinderCare, Or Why We Don’t Eat The Dry Ingredients.
August 6, 2013 By Leave a Comment
I so dig early childhood education, and am rather honored to be writing a sponsored post on behalf of KinderCare. *** There is absolutely nothing better than seeing a little kid truly understand something for the very first time. It makes you realize that yeah, this smallish (and rather messy) person is well on their way to becoming a thinking, thriving, productive member of society and will one day become an independent one. Kinda heady stuff. As a lot of {Read More}
