The nursery is ready. The freezer is stocked. The emergency contact list is obsessively printed out and has been distributed. And my bags are officially packed. Ok kid, we're as ready as we're going to be. Speaking of bags, I wanted to share some of the essentials that I'm taking with me, focusing once again on keeping as simple as possible. Slippers: Their usage is obvious, but the tip I received was to get some cheap, open-back slippers that you can easily get on and off, and then trash ...
A Future Worth Anticipating
Adapted Art Via David Powell Anticipating the future has been called a fruitless endeavor. In doing so, you can forget to live in the present, embrace life as it’s happening, and suck up everything that it has to offer. Despite being with my husband for over 13 years now (married for almost 6), I put off getting pregnant for so long, thinking that it would be the demise of both my physical and emotional essence, and that “future” was something that would just have to wait.

JULY 2017 TS&TS RUNNING PLAYLIST
Hey America, it's your birthday!

Until then, we'll continue renting our two bedroom condo and will always be asking ourselves, "Do we really need this?" But then along comes baby and the funny thing about ...
Cookin’: Post-Pregnancy Freezer Meal Plan
I don't know if there will ever be another time in my life where I will have a few weeks to do whatever I want. Well, mostly. While yes, I'd love to spend this time riding a bike around France or running trails yet to be discovered, maternity leave has been filled with a to-do list that is getting smaller and smaller, and daily trips to Target where I'm sure the associates are all thinking, "That pregnant lady is back again." Despite the ridiculous heatwave we've been having (we're talking ...
