7x7xMommy

I have to be honest, when I bought this jacket online I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. I figured that it would arrive and either make Abby look like a clown (look at the collar) or it would arrive and look super duper cute (assuming she’d even wear it since anything new is a […]

Before I announce the winner of the San Francisco Themed ABCs giveaway, I want to say thank you SO much to everyone who participated! Now onto the best part…who won?!? Thanks to Random.Org, a winner was selected at random (go figure!) based on the number you were assigned when you submitted your comments. The lucky […]

At 4:45am this morning, I pulled a crying Mackenzie out of her crib, started feeding her, and began stressing about the fact that it was Father’s Day and I was 100% unprepared. No card. No presents. Not even any bacon to accompany breakfast. Luckily enough for me, I married you. And I knew that you […]

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that I’m pretty sure we’re settling into a routine and it is SO NICE. After months and months of terrible sleep and a baby who wouldn’t drink out of a bottle, we now have a 7 month old who goes to bed at 6:15pm, […]

It took 7 months for me to feel confident enough in Mackenzie’s sitting abilities to put her in the tub alongside Abigail (Mac has been sitting since 5 months but Abby tends to be VERY active in the tub and I didn’t want her to tackle Mac before she was ready).  I’m pretty sure they […]

**This Giveaway is officially closed** Thanks to all who participated – The winner will be announced shortly! I’m pretty sure that most people who read my blog know that we absolutely love the San Francisco Giants in our household. We’ve been to our fair share of games, we’ve made it on TV twice (once while […]

“What are YOU looking at, Mommy??” Baby Mac is ready to start moving.  I’m convinced it will take her a little while to crawl because her belly almost hits the ground when I prop her up on her hands and knees to practice, but she might prove me wrong. She’s very motivated. She hangs out […]

I’m not really sure why I’m going to write this (out of fear I’ll jinx us yet again), but we’ve had five impressive nights of sleep in a row after that little setback I mentioned last week.  And when I say “impressive,” I mean we’re getting between 11 and 12 hours of sleep from Mackenzie. […]

My entire week was made this morning when I received an email from Nicole Paulson with the blog post she created from our shoot last week at Golden Gate Park. As I said to her in my response, I feel like she did an amazing job capturing the spirit of our family. She captured Mac’s […]

On my last trip to Atlanta, I found a few warm weather items for Abby to wear on our upcoming trip to Mexico (can’t wait for that one!).  Since Abby’s about to endure some 95+ degree weather in Sacramento this weekend (yikes! she sweats when it’s 68), we figured we’d break out one of her […]
