I think it’s safe to speak for both Tyler and myself when saying that it’s more enjoyable to watch Fox do things he loves than actually do things we love. Not that we don’t love Disney (after all it’s the happiest place on earth),…
The long weekend is wrapping up in my house with a busy Sunday, but I want to drop a quick note before it ends. We did Thanksgiving a bit different this year since we stayed in by ourselves as a trio. I cooked my…
Something funny happens when you get older. People tend to move away, get married and have children – everything changes. So when the holidays roll around it’s always interesting to see how deep-seated traditions stir into new ones. I’ve mentioned in past posts that…

Yesterday I went to my first ever Friday wedding. Tyler’s bandmate Jarred married our beautiful friend Emily at Rawhide Ranch in Bonsall, which I’m completely obsessed with! Her maiden name is Troy, so the hashtag featuring Fall of Troy was a perfect fit! The…
Before I became a magazine editor, writer, or blogger, I was a nanny for a beautiful family of five. Nannying was the best preparation for motherhood that I ever could have had. The youngest was just two months old when I came on board and…
Have you seen the article going around about the Insta-famous teen who is quitting social media? She cites inauthenticity as part of the reason why she’s opting out. Whether it’s a good thing or not, I live and breathe by my social networks and would…
Yesterday Tyler and I took the day off and brought our guy to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. We’re pretty in love with this place! It was our first stop when Fox was finally old enough to leave the house and (in case…
Today marks three years married to my husband, Tyler. For those of you who may not know, I want to share the story of how we met. It’s always incredible to look back on the intricacies of how we began (and continued to go…
Today Fox gave me a big hug. He crawled to me, climbed onto my lap, pulled himself up to my level and wrapped his little arms around my neck. His cheek pressed against mine and after a long pause he straightened up with his…
Every new mom has doubts. When Fox was born I was full of them, and truth be told I still am. But we all have something in common: we want what is best for our children. From day one I talked to my baby,…
Recently I had the pleasure of viewing a few videos from my husband’s childhood. This was made extra fun by the fact that he had an extremely thick Texas accent until he was around 8 years old. My father-in-law had sat him down for…
Since it’s Thursday, I want to do a little throwback to last October. I was about five months pregnant and my bump came out of nowhere. We announced our baby’s name, had a beautiful shower thrown for us, and my parents came to town.…
Hello everyone! Sorry for my brief absence. I turned 28 on Monday and took a little time for me and my family. We headed a tiny bit up the coast and spent two days at Disneyland! If you’re ever worried that you won’t hear…
Yesterday I left my purse on a train. I realized as I was walking through the doors of the transport but kept on going. And when I got to the stairs I panicked and realized it was gone forever. I only had one thing…
