Anyone watching this on Vimeo? I saw some good posts about it so I watched an episode (Rachel). It was pretty funny so I want to start from the beginning and see what it's all about. Here is the story behind the series: "How two married writers turned an online series about a New York pot dealer into a Vimeo-sponsored must-see hit."

Happy New Year!
Last year was a big year. I had a baby in July so she's almost 6 months old now. Mike got a new job. And we had many other adventures that made it a very happy year. But I wanted to get back to the blog since I slowed down a bit (ok, I stopped completely). So what better way to start it back up with my goals for 2015. I hope I can live up to these since, you know, I'm writing them down for all to see. Ready, set, go!
Goal 1: Lose the baby weight (and what was there before baby!)
A friend sent me this "diet" which really is a common sense list on how to eat better. I don't think it's a way of life for the long run but I hope it gives me the jump start I need to get myself on track.
Goal 2: Start the blog back up
In progress...
Goal 3: Get back into music
When we lived in LA (and I was a lot younger), I was way more into music than I am today. My day consists of listening to sports radio to and from work (brainwashed by my husband and it stuck!) or NPR or the one Boston radio station I know. For Christmas, we got each other a handful of records and we've been discovering old music we haven't heard in awhile. Here's what Santa brought this year:
Goal 4: Be a good mom
I saved the best for last. I'm learning each day what this means. Life gets busy but I want to remind myself each day that this as the most important thing I can ever do.
Hope you have a very, very happy new year!

The remaining things is to frame the artwork I bought and style the bookshelves - which is MUCH harder than it looks.

Happy Pinning
Pinterest is an online pin board to help organize anything you like. It's been really helpful when I find thinks I like and I want to reference back later. If you haven't tried it, check it out. You may need an invite but just sign up and you should get one shortly. Happy pinning!

Guest Room
It's been a really long time since the last post and unfortunately, we haven't done much with the house. But, I am trying to get back into the swing of things. There are several small projects in progress - one being the guest bedroom.
I bought a headboard off Joss & Main which I love! I want this room to be a cozy and comfortable space for guests.
Next up: side table, lamp, curtains and a bedspread....
PS: there is currently a debate about the TV in the living room and how big it should be. We'll see who 'wins' this debate.

We're moved in!
Today was a long day but we moved and are (somewhat) settled in. Below are some pics from the day. My mom made dinner and we celebrated our first night in the house. Very exciting!! We feel very comfortable here and we feel like we belong.
Some highlights from the day:
We lost both sets of keys to our old apartment but the management didn't seem to care. They said we can drop them off any time (once we find them in our packed up moving boxes). Ok....
The furniture store gave us a delivery window of 11:49 AM - 2:49 PM. While we were trying to figure out why "49", the truck pulled up at 11:49 AM exactly. Strange... but impressed!
We went with Verizon for cable & internet and they helped us get it set up over the phone after shipping the parts to us. They couldn't of been nicer and we are fully up and running. See you later Comcast!
The mailman (Steve) stopped by to introduce himself and chat. He said it's a great neighborhood and he's there if we need him. Where did we move?!?!
