Nostalgia
Look at these young sprouts. If you had told them that they’d have a baby in four years, they would have laughed you off the platform.
P.S. That coat does not button around my bosom area anymore.
P.P.S. Blondes usually do have more fun. Or maybe I was just more fun four years ago.

Quick meals
I’m working between 7-10 hours a day and caring for a newborn and right now, I don’t really have the time to cook a nutritious lunch for myself. I’m trying to watch what I eat because, hello, just had a baby over here, but it’s a lot easier to grab a bag of Doritos. (I LOVE Doritos.)
Fortunately, Kashi frozen meals are actually pretty tasty. They only take 3-4 minutes to...

My closet
My name is Jaclyn and I’m a clothes hoarder. About a week ago, I went through my closet closets to try and bring some order to the clothing and accessories I’ve hoarded away since…high school. (Yes, I still had dresses I wore in high school.) My little “collection” was getting to an unhealthy, unorganized point and I hated the fact that when I opened up my closet...

Put this on your baby registry right now! (Part I)
All you pregnants, pay attention to this post! I’ve blogged a few random items that I’ve found I can’t live without over the past 6-ish weeks, but here is the BIG DEFINITIVE list that you can take to the bank (…registry). I am completely confident that without any one of these items I would have managed somehow, but my life has been made easier and more happy because these...

6 Weeks
I can’t believe it’s been six weeks since this little monster was born. Everyone says to me, “Enjoy every second, it goes so fast!” That was hard to believe in the initial weeks of exhaustion and sleeplessness (nothing moves slower than a sleepless night), but I see now that all these people WEREN’T LYING AFTER ALL. It does go fast.
When I was pregnant, I was a...

Swimsuit Cover-Ups
There’s a chance that I may need to be in a swimsuit in public by the end of March. That thought terrifies me. I am not (definitely NOT) going to be bikini-ready at two months postpartum. Sorry, no, it’s not going to happen. I’ve been reassured by Brandon that all will be well, but that’s easy for him to say when he doesn’t have stretch marks and all sorts of other...

Yep.
When you think of something you need to buy but don’t write it down because “you’ll remember it.” And then you don’t.

The Truth (About Hair)
I’m seriously considering giving the old chop-chop to a few inches of my hair. The problem is that this is the idea I have in my head:
Andddd, I’m pretty sure I’d end up looking like this:
