I can't believe how fast time is passing. Just two years ago around this time we were nearing the end of our wedding reception in beautiful Punta Cana, DR. Today we find ourselves in a not as beautiful place but surrounded with our most precious treasure, our boys (and my sister) :) This past year was much better...

This week's topic on the First Year and Beyond link up is "What have you learned from the unexpected and how have you grown as a couple?" Many believe that once they have arrived at marriage the coming years will be a piece of cake. That's not true my friends. Marriage is a journey not a destination. It's a journey...

One my goals in my 101 in 1001 list is to create a cook book from my most common and favorite dishes. And this dish definitely earns the privilege to be there.

I can't believe how fast time is passing by. My baby is already 5 months and it's been a little over two months since I returned to work. Seriously? Hard to accept for me. I can't remember how hard it was leaving Steven Jr when my maternity leave was over, which was only six weeks back then. But I'm sure it wasn't...

Last weekend we headed down to Jersey to visit one of hubby's cousin who was having a birthday party for her three year old baby girl. We got there pretty late in the afternoon but just in time for games and cake. It just so happened that that dear cousin was giving out goldfish pets as prices. (What on earth?) I saw...

At 4 months the pediatrician told us we could start AJ on solids. She said that just oatmeal cereal would be good enough for now and that we should give it to him once a day.
