This is a picture of Colby - we had just surprised her with a suite room at The Cosmopolitan in Vegas for her bachelorette party. Well, the joy continues this weekend because she is getting married in San Diego!! Seeing your friend walk down the aisle is so amazing and Ryan and I are on our way […]
The Mommy Hat: Artificial Energy
It’s National Coffee Day and I’m celebrating with 3 cups! Kelsey was awake until 6am last night. That’s not a joke, nor an exaggeration. My husband and I have video footage to prove it. Our little monkey was bouncing off the walls at all hours of the night/ morning. I questioned if Ryan gave her Motrin or adrenaline for the virus. […]
The Wellness Hat: Hand, Foot and Mouth
Yep, we have hand, foot and mouth over here. It’s a virus (with no treatment) that kids get. As we lifted Kelsey out of the bath last night, I noticed her little feet had red bumps all over them. I asked her to stick out her tongue and I saw two blisters. I rocked her to bed, then […]
The Family Hat: Little Lemonade Stand
Last weekend, Ryan and I went back to the cabin. This time we took my parents with us. Saturday was spent at a local fall festival and car show. Nanni and I had just sat down when we looked up to find Kelsey and Grandpa hanging out at this cute little lemonade stand. They were waiting patiently […]

In other words, take chances. You’ll have no idea what you’re capable of unless you take a risk and go for it. Go on, go!

The Wife Hat: Red Velvet Glorified
After a long work day, I purchased a calorie-free, speeds-up-your-metabolism, red velvet Tammie Coe Cupcake and brought it home to share with the mister. After baby was in bed we went outside, vegged out on the back patio, enjoyed the weather and devoured this red velvet beauty. This cupcake didn’t stand a chance. Phone photos to prove it. Happy […]
The Homeowner Hat: It’s Paint Time!
Kelsey’s toddler room design is underway. We’re getting new carpet (hurray!) which means I need to start painting. My inspiration started from this blog post and has grown into a full-blown inspiration board on Pinterest (seen here). I’m basing the entire room design from this picture. I adore it. I debated on the primary color being mint, peach, tan or […]
The Friendship Hat: Weekend Wrap Up
As you heard, we spent the weekend at the cabin with six of our friends and four kids under the age of three. It was a riot. Funny, peaceful, entertaining and full of memories. We went on long evening walks, played “ball” in the street, took the kids on bike rides, roasted s’mores by the […]
The Weekend Hat: Peaceful and Perfect
Peaceful & perfect. Two words that describe my weekend, which was spent with great friends at our family cabin. I’m getting ready to post photos from our trip so I can tell you all about it. Stay tuned!
