I think I have started to get addicted to no sugar in my life. Who knew that could even happen? For the past 2 years Kimball and I have randomly decided to go 4 weeks without any refined sugar (3 grams or more). The first couple of days are always the hardest. But this last […]

Our First (and last!) Red Eye Flight
We had the choice not to fly all night with two little children. Who knew, maybe flying red eye with kids would be the best idea ever and people just kept it to themselves?! It wasn’t a complete disaster, just hard. A few days before leaving Az, I started regretting our flight choice. But we did […]
Thoughts on a Wednesday Night
I am sitting on our couch, with a bowl of Caesar Salad next to me. The girls are asleep, Kimball is working, and a rainy New York is keeping me company tonight. I thought I’d check in here since it’s been over a month since I have posted anything on my blog…! We’ve been sick […]
The Whitney
One of the things I love about NYC so far, is the endless amount of museums and opportunities for new experiences for the girls (and us!). I’m pretty sure I will never get tired of this place. Just writing about this makes me want to go outside and explore. The other week we went to […]
Piccolo Cafe (UWS)
Delicious Italian food at a super cosy cafe-like restaurant. They have homemade pasta and a variety of other dished and we totally loved our meal (Vegetarian lasagna and penne alla vodka with bacon). We did take out but I’m dying to eat in and experience the cosy atmosphere. Delivery: Yes Vegetarian options: Many Price: $$ […]
Elizabeth Nicole Smith – Birth Story
I have debated whether or not I wanted to share my girls’ birth stories on the blog. They are so precious to me and feel holy, in a way. I guess I have been a little nervous to put something I treasure so much in a place for everyone to see. But then I thought […]
Happy Anniversary!!!
1 Masters Degree 2 Kids Multiple online classes 4 Years 5 Moves 6 Countries 19 States Four years of our happily-ever-after has past! It feels a little unreal. I know it’s totally the thing to say, but I do feel like I’ve known him my whole life. Kimball is the most loyal, hardworking, humble […]
Christmas Oranges – a little reminder
It came so fast this year. All of a sudden it was a week and a half left to Christmas. Usually I will have everything decorated and planned by the end of November. What should I give my husband? What do we eat? What kind of christmas festivities do we take the girls to? These […]
Flying screen-free with toddler and baby
I have a feeling this will be the first of a couple of “traveling with kids” posts that I will write. Since we recently did a 6 hour flight from AZ to NYC, I wanted to share some tips and observations from this time around. Luckily I had Kimball with me and we had a […]
Dinner time!?!??!
You know those days when you look at the clock and it’s already 5.30 pm and you have no idea what you are making for dinner? Add to that a grumpy baby, and a dirty, hungry, everything-is-NO toddler. Those are not my favorite afternoons and something that I actually like doing (cooking), turns into the […]
