You know the movie “Groundhog Day” where Bill Murray wakes up to the exact same day over and over and over? I kinda feel like Bill Murray right now.

We have moved! And I survived…barely.
I had big plans to share lots of pictures of the new house, but I came down with a nasty cold the day of the move. So at this point, I’m just trying to get better so I can be ready to unpack next week…

This is one of those “oops” recipes, that I just had to share. I set out to make a smoothie for myself and Kellan recently, but it was just one of those days when even the simplest of things was not going right…

Lately strangers have gone out of their way to help me. Maybe it’s because I look like I’m going to give birth at any second, and they want to help me get where I’m going so they don’t have to witness it. After all, my belly does need its own zip code. Whatever. I’m grateful for the help…

You guys. Seriously. The stomach I’m sporting around is ridiculous. Perfect strangers comment on how I look like I’m going to give birth any day. You should see their jaws nearly fall off their faces when I tell them I still have two months to go.

As the saying goes, “Time flies when you’re having fun.” So I must have had a total blast in the past year, because this anniversary has totally snuck up on me.

Portabella. How’s that sound for a baby girl name? It’s like two names in one, really. We could call her Porta for short, or just Bella. I can just picture it now…”Oh Portabella, who’s my chubby little mushroom?”
