Join me on my journey of motherhood
6 months ago, on Friday March 13, 2015 I got the most shocking diagnosis of my life. Sitting in the doctor’s office with my parents and my husband and hearing those words “It’s breast cancer” was devastating. Those 2 weeks that followed my diagnosis were a whirlwind of tests and appointments. I have now completed […]
Summer is quickly fading away, and kids will soon be heading back to school. For me, Princess Peach will be off to school for the first time as she is starting Junior Kindergarten. She has been in daycare for the past 3 years but there are so many things I need to worry about now […]
Two weeks ago we celebrated Princess Peach’s birthday with her friends. In fact, she had a joint birthday party with her “boyfriend” Mr. O. as their birthdays are close and they have the same friends from daycare. Initially we considered doing a park party but the amount of work and schlepping to get everything for […]
Dear Princess Peach, I can’t believe that today we are celebrating you turning 4. It feels like you have been part of my life forever, yet four years is a short amount of time. I remember the first time I laid eyes on you in the OR and now I’m looking at my beautiful four-year […]

I look forward to when she’s older and we can’t start to play more complex games. Read and enjoy today’s guest post! We have busy […]
Dear Little Dude, Happy birthday, baby boy! Today you are 2! What a year this has been for you. You went from being a shy baby who never left my side to being a self-confident, funny little boy. It has been an absolute pleasure watching you grow this past year. You have had some huge […]
I thought my dating days were over. When I was young, I dated guys trying to find Mr. Right. Then I found him, my soul-mate and those dating days were over. Then after I had Princess Peach, I started “dating” other moms not in a romantic way but in a play-date/friend type of way. It […]
