Your Opinions Needed!!!

Hey ya’all, So I tried my hand at color blocking over at Style Me Prissy.  I challenged myself to put together 4 different looks without spending over $100, and I am proud to say that (thanks to my savvy thrifting and TJ Maxx’ing skills) I was able to pull it off.  Derek was my wonderful [...]

Great Life, Boring Blog

001

I've been thinking about the direction this blog has taken. I have to be honest with you – I'm surprised anyone still reads. I post so sporadically and when I do I feel my writing lacks the energy and spontaneity it once had. When I started with the whole "mom blogging" thing I wasn't new [...]

Chatting With Wendy Williams + My Television Fashion Debut!

Mainlogobuttontall

Hands down, blogging is the most awesome hobby in the world.  It's even more incredible when it allows you to start crossing items off your Bucket List. Anyone who knows me knows how much I sweat Wendy Williams.  Yes, I did say SWEAT (#dontjudgeme).  She's been a "friend in my head" since I started listening [...]

Taking Care of Me Again

310

I bought a few clothes last week and it felt so good.  This is unlike me as I'm normally way too cheap to buy anything for myself, clothing included.  I'd rather make do with what's in my closet.  However, my mom had just sent me a large box of new clothes.  She is so sweet [...]

My “American Baby” Makeover

033

I spent the day at Jack Studios in Manhattan enjoying a day of pampering and primping at my new mommy makeover with American Baby.  It was a fun and amazing experience!  Jack Studios is a gorgeous, airy loft – bright with natural light – that overlooks the Hudson River.  I felt so very "New York" being [...]

And the Blessings Continue to Pour In…

Ab

Hey all! I learned today that I'll be featured in the September issue of American Baby, a parenting magazine and division of Parents.com.   I discovered American Baby Magazine several years back… when Chase was but a twinkle in my eye.  At that time I loved reading it and simply fantasizing… but it would eventually [...]

Taking Back Control of My Weight Before & After Pregnancy

PreBaby

2007 – At My Ideal Weight of 135 lbs As I prepare myself, emotionally and physically, for the arrival of our new baby I'm also taking into consideration post-partum health. Part of that includes managing my weight and returning to a size that is comfortable and healthy for me. I must admit I fell into [...]

Home Improvement… on a Budget!

Art

Slowly but surely (and I do mean slowly) we've been making little aesthetic changes to the house.  Decorating on a budget is a real challenge, and I've been very discerning about the little accent pieces that I select here and there.  I fell in love with a Marco Fabiano print titled Scroll Bath and bought it for the bathroom. [...]

Guess who won a Disney "Princess and the Frog" MomTV Giveaway Prize Pack?  Woohooooo!!!! I'm a member of the MomTV community and, one day while perusing the site, was excited to come across a video that MomTV Co-Founder and Executive Producer, Stephanie Piche', had posted of Princess Tiana's debut in Magic Kingdom.  Stephanie was fortunate [...]
