I'm thrilled to announce that my husband and I are expecting baby #2 this May! I had my first prenatal appointment on Thursday, and I found myself SO nervous for it. But there it was, without a doubt, a loud thumping heartbeat on the monitor. My doctor is old school and doesn't use an ultrasound machine, and since we weren't sure how pregnant I was or what my due date would be, he referred me to ... View Post
Flourless Chocolate Cake with Homemade Whipped Cream
It's been a while since I've written a recipe post hasn't it? Don't worry, I will never abandon my hostessing ways. :) My husband and I have made great progress on our deck and have just started to use it for entertaining.

Having this uninterrupted and disconnected time with him - time in which I'm not worried about grocery shopping, doing the dishes, checking emails, or running errands - gives me the opportunity to fall more in love with him. There is something so sweet ... View Post
Oliver: 10 Months
My sweet little Oliver will be 10 months old this week and it's true when they say that time flies by so fast. I feel like just yesterday I brought home my bundle from the hospital, and now I have this little sack of potatoes that's babbling and cruising furniture and shoving raspberries into his mouth. His new tricks are doing "So Big" with his arms and pointing to our noses when we ask where ... View Post
