Dramatic post title, huh. Even though I’ve already technically started work, it has all been fluff stuff, like HR paperwork, physical eval, etc. So this weekend was my last REAL weekend as a stay-at-home mom. It’s sad. I am trying not to think about what I’m missing while I’m away. But I do like that I can re-discover myself again outside of my mom role. I wouldn’t go back to nursing if I didn’t love it. Anyway, Friday was a pretty boring day. I dragged P to Sac with me because I had an appointment… Read more >

On the left is Amy’s dairy free cheeze pizza with a rice crust. On the right is Udi’s gluten free crust with tomato paste, arugula pesto, and Daiya mozzarella vegan cheese. I tried the Amy’s pizza a couple of weeks ago after an exhausting day. I was in a bad mood and didn’t want to put any effort into cooking. And I probably should have looked at the meal’s ingreds closer. Pros: It’s dairy free and gluten free. And takes no time to bake. I made it in the oven following the directions… Read more >

May already! The time flying by is even more noticeable now that I have a kiddo who gets bigger by the day second. Most of his weight is going to his cheeks, which I love love love. Oh, hey, I can grab rings, no biggie. This week was a busy one for us as we were out of town all last weekend. Lots of things to still get straightened away in setting up our house. Ugh! Moving takes forever. Also, Kyle left mid-week for a bachelor party (yes, the festivities began on Wednesday). So we… Read more >

I’ve sat down to write this post a few different times now. Each time I stop because I don’t know where to begin and how much to share. Here’s as much as I can get out for now. I’ve been withholding news. It’s really really exciting news. But it’s also bittersweet. Remember that trip up to Nor Cal? Where we visited my family and Kyle’s business in Davis? Yeah, we were actually doing some house hunting too. And guess what! We found a [perfect!!!!] place so easily, it’s like it was meant to be. I’m… Read more >

I made a major mistake and didn’t say decaf when I ordered this (venti soy misto) before we hit the road to come home from NorCal. I was very perky! I hope P didn’t get as high as I did off the caffeine! Oops!! The rest of the road trip was similar to the first one – Kyle and I traded off driving duties and our little man slept 99% of the time. I packed up our eats again. Similar as always. Brown rice, half an avocado, & two hard boiled eggs with a nooch… Read more >
