Whoa – time is flying by! I apologize for turning into quite the slacker with updating my blog. Roman turned one year old and Everett had his first day of Pre-school all in one week. Now that I’ve had time to chew on this and fully digest it, my brain will hopefully become less foggy. […]

The fact that a year has gone by since I got to hold and kiss my sweet Roman for the first time is mind-blowing. Life with two kids under three began with the realization that I needed to cut myself some slack. If you’re headed down this path, or right in the middle of it, […]

If you haven’t tried Wildtree, you’re missing out. I’ve been a customer for years. Their spices, drinks, meals, marinades, crock pot sauces, cinnamon rolls, mixes … you name it, I’ve tried it. Everyhting is preservative free and organic. You can pronounce every single thing on the ingredients list. And now I’m lucky because my sister […]

Okay, I’m just unable to stay quiet on this (big surprise, I know) – the Confederate Flag. Before I go any further, let’s just start with a quick history question: What years did the Civil War take place? If you were unable to quickly say 1861–1865, then this discussion shouldn’t even exist. Without knowing the […]

Baby weight, be (half) gone! Twenty pounds down, 20 to go! I’ve really been concentrating on the food … now it’s time to get my butt back into my running shoes and hit my beloved Madison bike paths, trails and routes. I haven’t been letting weight loss rule my world, just concentrating on portion control […]

I’d like to chat about something that’s been sitting heavy on my heart. I wasn’t sure how to reach out, but think maybe my blog is a good spot to start. A few weeks ago, WKOW morning show anchor, Dani Maxwell went into labor with her triplet boys. She was 23 weeks along. I want […]

All I want is breakfast. I LOVE breakfast. I feel like you can eat a little more carelessly because you’ve got the entire day to work it off and make better choices. Plus, I love breakfast food. Eggs and bacon and sausage and toast and pancakes … oh my, it’s all so yummy. I would […]

Alright, here I am: week five of “get my body back after having a baby.” I am completely aware of why people do this human being-creating in their 20’s. What I would give to have that metabolism back. Now don’t get me wrong. I’ve never been the thin girl, but I certainly ate Rocky Rococo’s […]

It was really weird being on national news for something unrelated to the Badgers – or Scott Walker’s possible run for president. But there it was, dark and early this morning as I sat in my reclining rocker with my six month-old son, Roman. As I stared at his sweet little face, back asleep after […]

So many amazing blessings to count! One of my dearest friends, who wasn’t even supposed to have one baby, just had her second … and calling Ellisyn beautiful is the understatement of the year. Another lifelong friend just found out that TWINS are on the way. And after a heart-breaking pregnancy loss, my cousin is […]
