Hi Mommas and Mommas-to-be! Today I wanted to share my tips & tricks for traveling with a baby. Evelyn is almost 3 months and so far we’ve already done three trips with her! Two traveling by car, once to Big Bear and once to Solvang (which are both about a 2.5 hour drive each way). […]

My Postpartum & Nursing Summer to Fall Capsule Wardrobe
By mariapelletier on September 25, 2017Holy sticker price shock of having a new baby! We’ve been looking at the credit card bill and trying to figure out how to lower our expenses so I know me purchasing a whole new postpartum wardrobe wasn’t going to fly with the husband. Plus, I’m trying to live minimally/green when possible and feeling pretty […]
Today at my Mommy and Me group a fellow mom shared how her son was now sleeping 8pm – 6am. WHAT?! While other moms said they weren’t getting that long of a stretch it seemed almost all of them had already implemented night time routines. I’m still in a daze of on-demand feeding, never knowing […]
6 Week Growth Spurt – New Baby, Who Dis?
By mariapelletier on September 18, 2017We’re currently in a growth spurt fog and I’m trying to hang on to my sanity. Evelyn now weighs 10+ lbs and her 0-3 month clothes are starting to look a little tight. I can’t believe how quickly she’s changing. She’s focusing more on her surroundings, is awake more often and prefers to be held. […]
I’ve survived my first month of motherhood! My marriage is still intact, laundry and housework is generally caught up on, I manage to shower 3-4x a week and we’re leaving the house now about 2x a week. So basically you can call me supermom. Seriously though, I’m adjusting to this new normal. Definitely mourning life […]
Preface: Is it weird that i’ve been dragging my feet about writing this post? Every day I think about it, that I really need to get writing. I want to do it while the details are still fresh in my mind and I know so many people are curious about my experience. But I think […]
Evelyn is 10 days old and time seems to be moving so fast and so slow at the same time. It’s been a whirlwind getting used to life with a newborn, no sleep and a lot of body changes. I wanted to share how we’re doing. Baby: Evelyn is doing great. She’s such a good […]
Hi Mommas & Mommas-To-Be, Thank you to everyone for the kind words and support as I transitioned back to work. I surprisingly haven’t cried at the office. I’ve been able to FaceTime Evelyn a few times during the day and since she isn’t sleep trained yet I still had several hours to cuddle her once […]
Well Evelyn’s first Christmas didn’t go as planned. I was looking forward to my parents visiting, getting the last few days of being able to sneak in some naps and extra sleep before I headed back to work full time. We had plans for a few overnights in Santa Ynez for wine tasting and visiting […]
