My breastfeeding story began long before my daughter was born or even conceived. When I was twenty-one, I discovered a lump in my left breast. At twenty-two, I underwent a core needle biopsy which revealed that I had a benign condition called Pseudoangiomatous Stromal Hyperplasia. I was told that this is just an overgrowth of normal tissue and is not pre-cancerous, but is rather rare in … Keep Reading!!!
I’ve been dying to take Brian to a Speakeasy.
We have heard great things about The Edison in downtown Los Angeles.

I am a huge fan of the Roma Downey.
I was ready to jump up and down when I heard that I would get getting to meet with her last week.
If you don’t know Roma, you should. She is most well-known for playing Monica on Touched By An Angel. In real life she has proven to be a true person of faith. She does not allow the entertainment industry or the comfort level of others dictate when or … Keep Reading!!!
When I was little, I scanned a picture of my sister and pretended I was her in chat rooms.
In my defense, I was only 12 and it was my brother’s idea.
We had this picture of my sister when she was 21 in a bikini. It cracked us up. I wish I had it with me, I would show you all.
My sister was (and still is) hot stuff- it was fun for my awkward 12-year-old self to get … Keep Reading!!!

In the end I am happy we had one!
We chose February 3rd because … Keep Reading!!!

Everything I had read seemed to stress the issues that people had with breastfeeding and I was nervous that it would be too painful or inconvenient. I know, self-centered of me but knowing I had to return to work at 6 weeks post partum, I didn’t know if I’d be
