Set the Stage for a Lifetime of Healthy Eating
I got the chance to relive the pregnancy cycle and a baby’s first moments this past April with the birth of my best friend’s first son. She’s had two daughters prior and, over the last eight years, Christina and I have shared our joys and our woes about motherhood. She was the first to get [...]
I saw this picture yesterday of a family gathered together for Easter Sunday. About seven of them were lined along the couch, all looking at their cell phones. No one was interacting with anyone else. Is our society turning into the movie Wall-E? For those of you who may have never seen the film, it’s [...]
March 15th is a special day here in Los Angeles when all the Independent Schools send out their emails and letters to let you know how far you will be driving for the next seven years. Will it be Culver City? Westwood? North Hollywood? Really – just how much time will you be spending in [...]
The concept of infant massage is an odd one to me, but it shouldn’t be. I mean, I married a massage therapist who seems to have the “magic touch” with babies.

Lynnea and Rowan are getting their dance on! Tell us, how often do your little ones dance like no one is watching?
The year before I got pregnant with our first child, my husband and I went to Shanghai with friends, a wedding in Brazil, Havana for our anniversary, and turned a stop-over in Mexico City into a luxe vacation. Where have I been since that adventurous year? Oh… Mexico, a bit. New York a few times. [...]
Prior to becoming a new mama, I was given tons of advice. Looking back, here are some of the best: Research Everything… even the stuff you don’t like. I knew pretty much next to nothing about parenting styles. If you’d said, “Attachment Parenting” to me, I would have stared at you blankly. But while I [...]
This month I’ve been stumped for a topic to write about because the Sandy Hook massacre is all I’ve been able to think about. Like millions of other parents, it has paralyzed me in a million ways. And living in Los Angeles, across the country from the actual massacre hasn’t quelled my anxiety one bit: [...]
