I have worn this exact outfit approximately 10 out of the last 14 days. I mean YES: partly because of the large pile of laundry I have been successfully ignoring (I'm practically an expert in the field of laundry avoidance), and partly because I've spent the last 6 days alternating between banging my head on the keyboard ("Down!

Our move from Denver to Philadelphia was pretty heart-breaking. I mean YES, it was our (Mike's) decision, nobody was forcing us (Mike)* to move, but still. We left so many good friends behind. But I'll never forget our first foray into Philly. We took the train and somehow ended up in Chinatown. It was agonizingly hot, so humid you...
Happy Spring!
You know how I've been on this multi-year quest to find the perfect pair of worn-in-just-right-light-wash denim? Well. IT'S HAPPENING, PEOPLE.

I. Am. Done. IAMDONE. That fact makes my head spin a little bit...it doesn't feel real. I don't have any more medications to take. No more shots. No more IVs, or bone pain, or nausea. The big stuff? The really tough stuff? Is over.
There are times when I feel a sense of excitement (Yay for me! I made it!!!)....but...
For a while, sitting upright in a chair was insanely uncomfortable. So we got in the habit of packing the car with some food (and creatively disguised booze), throwing in our trusty mat, and heading out to find a cool park.
It's really hard to beat Drexel Park. Right?

Mamas, Abby sent in this adorable picture of herself on her way to a baby shower. She writes:
I have been a huge fan of yours since discovering your blog after the birth of my Daughter. She is my second child and was born C-Section due to her being breach. I was so discouraged and frustrated with my body changes...
Readers Lauren, Ginny, Maggie and Kendra called me out recently (in the comments section of this article) for always showing so much leg. Lauren started the chain with this comment:
So many of the looks and trends you feature and recommend are leg-centric. Which look great on lots of ladies, just not me. And, I suspect, on lots of other...
