Harlow is at such a fun age. She is like a sponge and I swear every day she has learned something new. We haven’t had a check up lately (we will have a check up in a month) so we don’t know her current stats. Here is snap shot of Harlow at 16-17 months: Favorite … More Harlow at 16-17 months
I wanted to share some of our maternity photos, even though Harlow is 16 months old. Never too late, right? We took the photos at my dad’s lake, by the same person/my friend (Free Byrd) who did our gender reveal photos, and they turned out so well. We hung one of the photos in Harlow’s … More Maternity Session
Long weekends are always the best because I feel like we can be productive and still have time to do fun activities, like go to the lake. We started Saturday off with what is becoming our usual routine of going to Noah’s Bagels and Starbucks for breakfast. We had to go to Nordstrom to get … More Labor Day Weekend
Every morning seems like a fire drill. The rush to get everyone ready and out the door by 7am is a total struggle. I am by no means a morning person, and it usually takes me a good 15 minutes before I can even function. Up until very recently, I have let Ciaran wake up … More Morning Routine
Ciaran was out of town this weekend at a rugby tournament, so Harlow and I were on our own. We went to my dad’s lake on Saturday (where we spend most weekends actually) and spent the day swimming, playing in the sand, riding golf carts (her absolute favorite) and running around the grass like a … More Weekend Fun
Now that Thanksgiving is over, I have officially kicked off the Christmas season. I love real Christmas trees, but with a baby who is on the verge of crawling and that puts everything in her mouth, we opted for a very little, fake tree (tear). I think for future years this will be her tree … More Meeting Santa
Since Ciaran is originally from New Zealand, we had to go through the most intense process ever to get his finace visa. I swear, by the end of it, I knew every law there was to get a green card in this country. Seriously, if you ever need help with it send me a message … More Civil Ceremony
My amazing fiance is on a quest to find his father after nearly 25 years apart from one another. Rather than me try to ramble on about his quest, I have copied Ciaran’s blog about the journey onto this post. Finding Remon I was raised by my mother. By herself. Sometimes with only a few … More Ciaran’s Quest to Find His Father
I think I have said it before, but I will say it again, I love holidays and Easter is no exception. Spring weather is on the horizon and it is really the first time in the year where everyone starts wear light, flowy dresses and pastels again. It’s been 4 months since a big holiday … More Easter
One of the main reasons I decided to move from Australia back to California was to be closer to family as it always made me so sad when I missed out on family birthdays, events and holidays together. A few weeks ago was my nephew’s 5th birthday and it was the first birthday I actually … More Happy 5th Birthday to My Nephew
