Thank God for Netflix

So our belief has been confirmed... Ant is indeed the good luck charm the Eagles needed because THEY. WON. THE. SUPER. BOWL. And we are 100% taking credit.

Baby Bird

The Philadelphia Eagles are in the Super Bowl matched up against the Patriots -- what a time to be alive!! It's less than two hours now until kick-off and the anticipation has been building throughout the week. My husband said it feels like Christmas Eve when you can't sleep because you're so excited and the suspense of whether or not Santa came keeps you tossing and turning all night long -- I'm not a big football fan, but today I 100% agree with him.

True Confessions: I Love My Mini Van

I like love driving my mini van. Who am I?



One jean purchase away from these ladies -- that's who. But you know what -- I don't care. I'm not ashamed. I'm a mini van mom... but dammit I'm the hottest mini van mom in town.

Kick Me Baby One More Time

The kicks started out as little flutters around 21 weeks and were few and far between.


Me waiting for the baby to kick:

Now at 23 weeks the good news is that they are stronger and becoming more frequent. I feel the baby at every hour throughout the day, especially at night right before I fall asleep and just after I wake up in the morning. BUT one thing is still very clear -- the baby will not kick on command. The baby will be kicking me a few times and then others get excited ready to cop a feel. I rub my belly to help make the magic happen.

What Kind Of Mom Will I Be: A Mother's Day Recipe

It's my first official Mother's Day and I can't help but wonder about the type of mom I'll be when the baby is born.



Having grown up watching sitcoms, I'm looking to a few TV moms to come up with a suitable recipe...

Big Belly, Little Changes

Besides the baby bump, there have been many many changes throughout my pregnancy - both visible and invisible to the naked eye. Let me enlighten you.

1⃣ Newfound disdain for pantyhose -- if you see me in these know that I have no clean pants and I haven't shaved in a week+

Cheesy Broccoli Meltdown

The title sounds like a children's book but make no mistake. This is a true and horrifying story.

Allow me to set the scene.

Zach, the girls and I had just sat down to a lovely, peaceful dinner -- meatball sandwiches, pasta and BROCCOLI.

DUN. DUN. DUN.
