What I am Loving!



1. My Yoga Ball

Or should I say, Eric's yoga ball that doubled as his desk chair until I made him not be "that guy" at his new job... I hijacked it.  Nothing relieves my back, hip, tailbone, etc pain like a good twenty minute sit on it.  I might be sitting on it now. Ahhh. 

2. This Gem

Oh yes, Rosemary found a onesie on Etsy of a Baby Ninja.  A-mazing. Love it!
PS: Not loving the fact that Roe is moving to NYC on Monday. I'd say cue the tears, but it hasn't hit me yet.

3. Yeah! Burger

Grass fed, local, organic, and foursquare discounts?  What's not to love about this place. Hella good burger, sweet potato wedges and a milk shake. 

4. My Pool Shark



I love watching Eric play pool.  Nothing spells nerd sexy like an engineer trying to play a social game and listen to him discuss angles, parabolas, and vectors. I'm only half kidding. Seriously, he's a great teacher.  I wish I had a few shots of him coaching his sister. The intensity of his focus was priceless.

5. New England Vacation
photo credit: my dad :)
Eric and I have been trying to get to Boston for the last 2-3 summers. One summer I had a car accident the day before we were supposed to leave.  Another summer we couldn't get cheap enough tickets.  And last summer Eric's sister & brother-in-law moved to Atlanta.  This summer: my dad gave us Sky Miles and my parents letting us stay at their rental house with them for the weekend. Sailing and Lobster in less that three days? Yes, please. Now....to dig out my Ralph Lauren and Vineyard Vines.... haha.  

Did I mention that our trip includes a new airport for us? Excited to be one flight closer to completing an item off my 30x30 list!


What are YOU loving this Wednesday?

Our Debt Story Part IV: We're Debt Free...now what?!?!

WE’RE DEBT FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Before you celebrate with us, make sure you've read Elizabeth's Story , Eric's Story , and How We Climbed Out of Debt . Two and a half years of gazelle-ish-like intensity + the few months prior as emotional primer and slowed spending, we made it!  We paid off over $50,000.  We have two car titles. Closed credit card accounts. Statements from one student loan (and one on the way!) with a $0.00 balance.  All our debt with Eric’s parents is paid off.  It’s. All. Gone. We also paid for my 3 semesters of grad school in cash.  Paid a second car accident in cash (it was minor compared to the first one).  Went to Nicaraga on a Mission Trip in cash.  Went on a 5 day Puerto Rican vacation in cash.  We’re up to date on medical expenses for the baby in cash.  All while squeezing in travel for weddings , babies, family reunions, half-marathons , mini-vacations and to see out of town friends...in cash! ...

A lot of this was due to (but also contributing to) her constipation history. After 4 months of weekly physical therapy and diligently doing her homework, Evie caught up to her peers. She's been seeing another specialist for her tummy.  She's not 100% on her medication, but we haven't had any set backs or any more vomiting or constipation.  Evie can do basic addi...
