November 23
The cadence of my life is definitely getting better. We’re all sleeping better and I finally asked for ‘help’ so I could get breaks now and again. Aaron’s mom has been great - she comes over fo...
November 18.
Well, shit. Almost five days without a post. I so suck at this. Anyway. Since I last wrote an entry, the world exploded with all sorts of craziness. I mean, it’s always been crazy, but there’s ...
November 10.
Yes, of course it was a better day. I spent some time shopping and enjoying a nice hot chai latte with Aurion downtown LA while Aaron did his workout at the DTLA gym. Yesterday was just.. like.....
November 9.
Ugh. I woke up so cranky today and it’s just permeated the whole day. I’m just so exhausted and it catches up with me some days and I’m just worthless. Tomorrow will be better.
November 7 & 8.
This has been SUCH a nice weekend. On Friday night, Aaron’s sister brought dinner over for us and we had a really nice time catching up. She entertained Joaquin while I ‘entertained’ Aurion and...

Tomorrow is cleaning day and this house feels so dirrrrrty. It’s going to be glorious to have it restored to a fresh state. For a few hours at least. I just had a lovely warm fall salad with s...

Monday! I think? Who knows / cares what day it is lately. Well, actually, Monday - Friday our little ball of energy goes to preschool from 9/10a -5:30p, so it IS important to keep track of ...

I am going to try to write as much possible this month. I’m on maternity leave ya know, so I should do something (besides just keeping my baby girl alive) Tomorrow is her 1-month milestone. I...

You’re three years old! It’s so cliche to say time is flying by but it’s so true. Every day is a new adventure, and you make me laugh so, so much. You’re pushing the limits as you always ha...
Elusive Summer
I can’t believe it’s August. July was a BLUR of travel and visitors and WHAM, it was gone as fast as it came. I’m flying solo for the weekend while Aaron and Joaquin spend a few days in Minnes...
Final stretch...
We’re now entering the last half of summer, and also, we’re just about to enter the last trimester of this pregnancy. Everything is going by so quickly! I would be remiss if I didn’t try to ca...
2 and half years
Joaquin’s two and half year milestone was on Sunday, and I wrote this… I feel like I say this every six months, but this age, THIS AGE is so much fun. You are hilarious, and you know it and you...

This week is flying by! So like I mentioned, Monday was technically a holiday, but I still had work to do, so it was a meandering day for me. We hit up the gym, first thing in the morning, and...
Days 38-41
This week has just really kind of been crazy. Thursday I moderated three lively focus groups about smartphones. I was able to hire Aaron to film the groups because our client decided to add a ...
Days 36-37
I’m trying to be productive with work stuff but I’m hitting a bit of a creative wall so I decided to come here and unload a bit instead. Ah, sick season. Joaquin acquired a cough from our desert-...
Days 33-35
Saturday morning we woke up early, because Joaquin went to bed early the night before. We headed to the gym and I cranked out 6 miles, which is the longest run I’ve had since my last half marath...
Day 32.
I only have about 14.5 minutes to write, so this will be a quickie. We had a nice ‘company’ lunch today to welcome our new hire, Molly. She’s super young and yet she has an 18-month old AND...
Day 31
Still super busy, but the pace is a bit more manageable. At any rate, here procrastinating, once again. Aaron had another audition this morning, so I hung out with Joaquin until he could take h...

F8CK! Suddenly I’m crazy, crazy busy and my mind is going in one million directions so of course, OF COURSE, I’m HERE procrastinating. AHH. Just the facts: It was my ‘day’ to wake up with J...
Day 29.
It’s been a crazy busy day. But it’s all good stuff. I’m super hungry at the moment, but Aaron has an audition on the other side of town and he won’t be home until 6p or so and I can’t start &...
Day 24-28.
