How am I already over half way through this pregnancy?! Time flies when you’re having fun. :) I’m managing to post this one day shy of being 23 weeks, and the photos I snapped are from yesterday, at 22 weeks, 4 days. I’m finally past the “It looks like I have a beer gut” phase… read more »
Five hundred twenty-five thousand Six hundred minutes, Five hundred twenty-five thousand Moments so dear. Five hundred twenty-five thousand Six hundred minutes How do you measure, measure a year? In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights In cups of coffee In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife. In five hundred twenty-five thousand Six hundred minutes How… read more »
My schedule has been unusually busy as of late. Happily, it’s the good kind of busy, filled with fun projects and various social activities.

We’ve been SO busy, which is a change from our usual spring break routine. In previous years, we’ve just spent a lot of time pool-side, and would… read more »
Yesterday was my 16-week doctors appointment. I really cannot believe how fast things are flying by! This was a couple of weeks ago, at 14 weeks: Also, that’s a maternity shirt. I know I don’t *need* it yet, but it makes me appear to have more bump, less plump. ;) Happily, the doctors appointment was… read more »
Kant said that we require three things by which to measure happiness: someone to love, something we like to do, and something to look forward to. Did you know that I almost majored in Philosophy? That was after I switched from biomedical sciences and before I decided to persue print & online media. My… read more »
