 Dear Emily,

 You are such a big girl now!  You don't look like a baby anymore you look like a toddler.  You are growing and getting bigger right before my eyes.  

 I love your personality!  It is strong and certain which I love and which also challenges me.  I love that you don't take no for an answer :) most of the time!  It is such an amazing experience to watch you come into your own.  I truly feel blessed.

 You are such a daddy's girl!  Right now he is the only one who can change your diaper, feed you dinner etc.  I am chopped liver for sure!  But I have to tell you I absolutely love watching it.  Seeing the love in your eyes for your dad is awe inspiring.  And seeing how amazingly patient, kind and loving he is with you makes me melt.  

 Right now we can take you out to dinner and don't have to bring a thing!!  That is so crazy to me.  You sit in your seat and eat your little meal without incident (for the most part).  Let's just say I'm always picking up food off the floor before we leave, ha :)

 You are becoming a full blown toddler and I am so excited for what's next but I am also sad that it's going by so fast.  I pick up an old toy or teether and think where did those days go?  It makes me happy and sad all at the same time.  

 I am so happy your happy little one!  I am so happy that you are growing, changing and becoming exactly who you should be.  I am so happy I am along for this incredible journey.

 I love you to the moon and back,

 Momma

 xoxo

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleeding and was away from home and my

At Home Facial Favs

Image
Happy Monday!  I hope you and yours had a great weekend.   On Sunday I gave myself an at home facial and documented some of it on my instastories and got 100 questions, ha!  So I figured I would share what I used here.   The first question I got was the frequency in which I do at home facials and I don't do them as much as I want to or probably should.  I aim for once a week but it's probably every other week.  I love going to a spa and getting a kick ass facial but there isn't always time and sometimes they can be pricey so I've developed an at home routine for myself. I will say as I get older my skin is changing so I'm having to investigate new and different products.  My skin is sensitive, prone to breakouts and can be super dry and super oily so it's a constant juggle for me to find products that actually work for me.  Recently I've been using a ton of philosophy products and I have loved every, single one of them so far!  I also love that you get

The Power of Positive Thinking

Happy Hump Day readers!!  I hope you're having a great week.  From time to time I get emails or requests for certain topics and honestly I've gotten this request in some form or fashion a few times lately.   People have emailed or Facebook messaged me about positivity or how to stay happy during hard times etc.  To be honest I was a bit surprised that these asks kept coming.  I decided it was a sign that I actually needed to blog about it.   I think we've all heard the typical attitude is everything comments and most of the time they are in one ear and out the other.  Or we don't think they apply to us just everyone else.  However, I don't believe that.  I truly believe our attitude and thoughts shape our hours, days, years and ultimately our life experience.   I think this is a huge shift for most of us.  To take our thoughts from the place they have always been is super difficult.  When I got honest with myself I realized that a lot of times what I was think
