The other day I decided to look at Reagan’s adoption video…with her birthday coming up, I think I was getting sentimental about the day she was born and wanted to relive those first few moments. I was shocked that in just a year, almost 20,000 people have viewed it. Before the adoption video, I did […]

As Reagan’s first birthday approaches, I have so much to reflect on over this past year. Looking back, I don’t know how we did it. She has never been sick, even though I was sick for about a month, and Rob somehow had a fever for a brief moment. We’ve figured out her food, even […]

Last year at this time, it was my office’s annual awards meeting. Our office votes on things like best negotiator, most inspirational, etc. And then my broker David rattles off the top 25 agents in the office (we have about 90). If you’re like me, you LOVE awards…my office awards are all proudly framed and […]

In October, I decided that during the month of November I would do a 30-day fast from social media. I felt that it was important for me to put the phone down, close the constantly open Facebook tab on my laptop and just let my mind breath from all that is social media. After a […]

Rob and I were so excited for Reagan’s first Thanksgiving…earlier in the week, our team at Nemours decided we could try to give her a few “thanksgiving” items. As in, real foods, not baby food, so we were so excited to measure out sweet potatoes from the casserole and even have her taste a little […]

Brace yourselves everyone…I’m about to get REAL in today’s blog post…I’m not holding back, it’s my blog and I can say what I want, which is probably the last great thing remaining about this country since health care is going down the tubes. Anyway, this is my story on how Obamacare affects my family and […]

A couple weekends ago Rob and I went on our first vacation with baby Ray Ray…we rented a super cute beachfront cottage for four nights on New Smyrna Beach, we brought Bauer…and every item we deemed to possibly be important. Going on vacation was a huge confidence boost for us. Reagan went with us everywhere. […]

I am sitting here with hot tears just rolling down my face.  Reagan started foods…and it is really exciting. But my baby eating foods is not like your baby eating foods. Reagan’s dietician Sandy gave us menus to work with as Reagan starts food…we have a certain amount of Lysine Reagan can have a day. During […]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted and that’s due to a lot of things…1) I need to be in the mood to write 2) I’ve been super busy and 3) while I could whip up a blog post, if I’m not “feeling it” or feeling in the mood to let my words flow without […]

The other day, someone found my blog whose child also has a metabolic disorder.  She linked to her blog and I thought…hmmm, do I want to read what their child has? I skimmed the blog titles and read a few, looked at a few pictures, all seemed normal, even though the child had a liver […]
