A little late posting again this week. For various reasons, I haven’t been able to stick to posting the pregnancy updates the very first day of the new week like I had initially hoped to! There has also been a few time constraints….whether I’m making time to play fetch with Gizmo, figuring out what the […]
Product Review: Herbal Essences Smoothing Serum & Heat Protection Spray
Recently, I was invited to be an Herbal Essences Influencer as part of the Mamás Latinas community. As a member, I received a collection of great hair care products and simply asked to use and then talk about each, sharing thoughts on the experience with other moms in the Mamás Latinas community. Not only was […]
28 Weeks Pregnant
I’m a little late in posting this week’s update, but here we go anyhow… How far along: 28 weeks. 5 days. Total weight gain: Think I actually only gained about a pound in the last week…so 36 lbs total. Sleep: Having lots of trouble falling asleep again 🙁 Best moment this week: Getting to see […]
Wordless Wednesdays: Pregnant Fish?
Just wondering…because our tropical fish definitely seems to be sporting a baby bump!
Practical Nursery Decorating Tips For First-Time Moms
With only 12 weeks ’til my official due date, I am thrilled that our baby nursery is slowly but surely coming together. Charlie and his dad painted the room a couple weekends ago, to what is now a medium, tropical blue. Once that was tackled, I spent hours (literally!) looking for a complimentary wall paper […]
27 Weeks Pregnant
I was a bit speechless this week when I read my “27 Week” recap which stated that a baby born now, has a good chance of surviving with significant medical assistance. I mean that is great to hear, but it’s still very scary to know that a baby can come any as early as the […]

{Letters from Daddy are a series of letters from expectant father to son, on what it means to be a man.} Dear Chili, As I anxiously await your arrival, my mind is filled with past memories, moments, and choices that have shaped my life significantly. Two concepts spring to mind; understanding them will help you […]
Wordless Wednesdays: A Bad Haircut
These pictures clearly speak for themselves, but I just want to emphasize that both my husband and I, were extremely upset to find our very fluffy dogs were practically hairless when we picked them up from the groomers this weekend. Yes, they were very matted and needed a good trim, but it’s Winter for God’s […]
26 Weeks Pregnant
I’m feeling good overall this week. The only thing really hurting is my back — and it’s been a chronic issue for over 10 years now, so not blaming this symptom on pregnancy! I’ve also noticed that my skin has become super itchy over the last few weeks — my stomach and ankles especially! The […]
Product Review: Safety First Tub & Shower Seat
I wanted to do a quick review on a shower seat I bought recently to help make my bath time less exhausting. Yes, I said shower seat. Ever since my pregnancy began (with my center of gravity shifting off center), I found that standing up in a hot shower for more than 10 minutes was […]
