Wordless Wednesday, Halloween Retrospective Edition

My dress-up retrospective... cuz everyone's doing it. And who am I to argue with some costume-related fun? Oh, and if you're in the mood for a little fun and games, try to guess which of the following photos were snapped while I was pregnant. Hint: There are more than just the obvious one. Oh, and oops. Toto, we're not wordless, anymore.

Who am I?

So, so far, my Halloween Costume consists of the following 2 items: a purple bandeau bikini top (yes it's the same one) and a pair of mint green Hardtails from 8th grade. Who am I?

super sweet six month old sick day

And, um, excuse me, but where did those 6 months go? I guess I will have to search for them where I did for ...

nobody puts daddy in the corner

What does it mean to be the daddy of a little girl? I know that in my house growing up, it meant many things. My dad grew up with 3 sisters. He then had 2 daughters and a female dog. He was a life-long swimmer in the estrogen pond, so to speak. In some ways, my dad is ...

far more importantly, happy 1/2 birthday,

dear Twin!!! Meet you here, for tapas, in 10!   Oh, and save room to pop into here for dessert. Or, we can make them sing to us over brownie sundaes at Hard Rock again. Totally up to you. As long as we end our night on the big red couches in front of this Deal? Deal. Besos, mi amor! You know you ...

Happy 1/2 Birthday,

To Me!! Is it wrong for me to say that? My Pop Pop said it with a voice-mail message; My sister said it with a Facebook post; My mom said it with a phone-call; but, my husband's way of saying it took the cake.. or.... cookie. On my 1/2 birthday last year, I came home to a fantastic smelling house, and this little masterpiece, sitting ...
