Warm weather is here! I love taking advantage of the California sun. Long days by the pool with the boys is the best. On our trip to Hawaii B loved hanging out in the pool and wading in the ocean waves, but he wouldn’t swim. It’s not that he COULDN’T swim, he had swimming lessons 2 […]

Mother’s MAY Challenge
With Summer around the corner, fitness challenges are popping up everywhere. Who are kidding? I’m not gonna sit around doing a gazillion push ups, planks, and pull ups. Pssssh!!!! In honor of Mother’s Day (May 12) I thought it would be fun to do a Mom Challenge for May. Some are easier than others, but […]
Patrick Peterson Gets Tough Love
I recently talked about how I withheld Mo from a weekend of soccer due to unacceptable grades. I got mixed feedback for doing this. Some parents thought I was being over the top for disciplining my 8 year old, while others said they understood. When I heard Patrick Peterson’s story, it made me smile. Former […]
Leave Pregnant Kim Kardashian Alone
I have an issue with people criticizing pregnancy weight gain. Women are hard enough on ourselves when it comes to our figure. I can’t imagine being publicly scrutinized by media and strangers for 9 months. I roll my eyes each time someone chastises Kim Kardashian for pregger pounds. Kim can’t catch a break. It’s all […]
Tough Love
Growing up good grades weren’t rewarded, they were expected. As a mom now, I feel the same. All excuses from my kids for mediocre school performance are overruled: “My teacher gives too much homework.” “Boys don’t like school like girls do.” “I’m only a kid I just want to have fun.” “My turtle ate my […]
24 Hour Juice Cleanse
When I came back from vacay I brought an extra ass a few extra pounds with me. It’s not my fault. How could I say no to endless macadamia nut dishes, fresh seafood, and pineapple everything?! In addition to that my body was drained and I had trouble adjusting from the time difference. To combat […]
Fresh Pressed Juice ATM
Smoothies are out. Fresh pressed juice is in. The latest craze in LA is juice. “Everyone” is doing it. The boys and I love it. Our addiction could be worse. Growing juicer, Kreation Juice has a juice bike, truck, kar, and 6 LA locations. They have recently added a 24 hour juice ATM to meet all […]
Happy Ending Basketball Game
You hear so much about how kids bully, are disrespectful, and selfish. It’s very refreshing when you see a kid perform an act from the heart. Mitchell Marcus, a special needs student from a Texas high school scored a basket in the final game of the season after a player from the opposing team gave […]
Dropping Buckets on Jimmy Kimmel
YouTube has discovered more stars than American Idol. One of my faves is 2 year old basketball shooting sensation Titus. Titus does upside down shots laying on a trampoline w/a pacifier in his mouth, around the corner buckets, and 7 footers. At the rate he’s going, he’ll give Mark Price and Rick Barry a run […]
Fresh Pressed Juice
I love when I find new kid friendly places. Totes recently opened and it’s a great spot for everyone. They tout all fresh hand-pressed juices bottled daily. Owner Chelsea (CeCe) Vudmaska-Guttierez greeted us with a nice smile bright and early at 7:30 AM (yes, I’m an early bird). Even though Mo and B kept shouting […]
