I miss New York or at least a part of me misses it. I am loving my quiet, suburban life here in PA but a part of me yearns for the city every now and then. I think that it may have to do with the change in weather. I LOVE the fall weather and [...]

I have been the woman that every other pregnant/postpartum woman hates. I had a relatively easy pregnancy and loved every day of being pregnant. I had a long(ish) labor but did not complain about it, not even during the labor. And I lost all of the weight gained during pregnancy within 2 weeks of leaving [...]

Prior to becoming pregnant, I was not sure where I would stand on this topic. I always assumed I would be offended by people who would just come up and touch my belly. I am a stickler for personal space and will take a step back, on people quite a bit, to make my point [...]
