Fun fact: the first independent blog I ever started was around the time I moved to San Diego in 2011. I was working like a maniac and not leaving much time to explore my beautiful city. Each month I would create a bucket list…
If you’re a longtime reader of The February Fox you may remember when Fox was just a little guy suffering from a horrible case of colic. Besides the obvious guilt we felt that our baby wasn’t feeling 100%, it also made the adjustment from…
The days following rainfall here in San Diego are always my favorite. The pavement is cooled, grass is lush, and the temperature is perfect. We went out in the backyard today to feel the fresh air and as I rounded the corner the most…
This morning my baby slept beside me for a full 1.5 hours. This may not seem like a big deal to you, but this meant everything to me. Since Fox was about two weeks old he has refused every cuddle and only wants to…
You may remember a month or so back when I posted about our friend’s getting married at a place called Rawhide Ranch. This place was so neat. It looked like an old western town complete with farm animals, a saloon, stage and dance floor,…

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…
Fox said his very first word yesterday. We were at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park and he blurted out “Mama” a couple times in a row when we prompted him. This kid is going to give me a heart attack with all he’s…
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…
Hi loves! You may have noticed in my video earlier this week that my hair is no longer blonde! I had asked for opinions on whether or not to add some burgundy in my hair and I got an overwhelming yes. Since I trust…
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.…
This is Peter. I picked him out from the SPCA nine years ago. He had a heart-shaped nose and crossed eyes, spending most of the visit chewing on his tongue. When I bent down to pet him, he threw up on my feet. It was…
Featured image via hairbyjuju So I know I just went blonde but for whatever reason I’m already wanting a change. Lately I’ve been lusting over aubergine and red hair color. Here are a few examples that I’ve been pinning along the way: I’m not…
