I have a real love/hate relationship with kale. Lets just say, there was a time when I overdid it, I mean kale.in.everything.

Our sweet baby boy was born March 13th, 2014. Which now makes him 6 weeks old, my how the time does fly.

Little did I know, he wouldn’t join us for another 48hrs. but hey it was my first baby, I thought they just shot right out once your water breaks. I also thought I might have an orgasm, ahem, it didn’t happen. (more…)
