my family & i just returned from a 5-night stay at finest playa mujeres in cancun, mexico. the last time we were in cancun was when atlas was a 9-month-old baby!!! now he’s almost 3 years old & even HE was looking forward to this trip and it was so cool to experience it through his eyes. honestly one of…
baby aero is 8 months old on the 24th & time must be flying because the last time i posted an update he was only 3 months old! but when i look back at it it seems like yesterday…*cue all of the emotions* – he is seriously the happiest, most chill baby & he fills our lives with so much…
i love reading other people’s birth stories and i shared atlas’s here, so today i’d love to share aero’s birth story to be able to remember vividly forever. my due date was 8/25 & it felt like this pregnancy lasted an eternity! with the pandemic, a sweltering summer, being locked in the house for the most past & raising a…
we recently moved atlas from his nursery (which i posted about here!) into a different room in our house that has a bit more space & an actual closet for more storage. i wanted to create a toddler room with a reading nook for us to be able to play, read and hang out in there because his nursery felt…
i was originally going to make this post dedicated to atlas’s one & a half year update (i did a one year update here) but i’m also 29 weeks pregnant today with baby boy #2 so i figured i would just talk about life updates & raising a toddler while pregnant during the pandemic that is coronavirus (covid 19)! atlas…
BOY! we just found out the gender this past week, so it has made it so much more real for me. i want to start documenting my journey to look back on & share with others, so now felt like the right time to share our news. we didn’t want to do an elaborate gender reveal, like we did with…
i heard about getaway house a while back & was curious what it was all about. it looked like a little dreamy escape in nature & i was intrigued. i showed dekel and since we both love hiking, camping & adventure we decided to book a getaway! (see some of our hiking adventures from israel here & here) i had…
i’m so behind on posting this since it happened NYE! but for our last family holiday experience of 2019, my mom planned it & took us out for dinner at this place & then she navigated us to a random parking garage where she then spilled the beans that we were going to go on a horse carriage ride to…
my sister planned our third family holiday experience (see the one i planned here & the one dek planned here) & she took us to the statler hotel downtown for a fun lunch & game of boozy bowling. we had never been to this place, but it was a huge space with games & super laid-back vibe. and i call…
dek surprised us all with a really fun family holiday experience this past weekend. he invited my mom & sister over to our house on saturday morning at 10:30, right after atlas went down for his morning nap. he had gotten bagels from einsteins (their cinnamon sugar is MY FAV!) that morning & made a brunch spread of scrambled eggs,…
