Whole 30: week 4
2 more days… We will make it!! This week was eye opening. We are back home and it was surprising to see just how much I missed eating so clean. I am not sure D feels the same, he’s more of a food is food kind of guy and he still misses his pizza! I…
Adventures of BB
This week was tough, but we found some light and sunshine in it all. I am so sad this picture is so blurry but I still had to share! BB loves her Big Tata so much! I am so glad she was able to spend so much time with him. We were sent off to…
Leaving is the hardest
We’ve been in Juneau for over a year now. We’ve had 8 visits from family and we’ve visited family 3 times. That’s 11 instances where we had to say goodbye or see you later. With all those opportunities I’ve found that when we visit family it is always so much harder to leave. D and…
Whole 30: Week 3
This week was the hardest yet, despite being the week we were supposed to feel unstoppable. We ended up making an unexpected trip to Arizona and realized that part of what made this so easy was the fact that we had basically no temptations here. Yes, we have a couple places that we enjoy eating…
Adventures of BB
We had so much sunshine this week! We spent everyday outside and got in as much sun as we could. We found two new beaches which we fell in love with! The best part about the beaches here is the wildlife. Our first day at the beach we saw a whale so close to the…
Whole 30: Week 2
This week was probably the hardest week for us so far. On top of feeling exhausted all the time one of D’s favorite restaurants kept teasing him by having incredible food that he happened to see every day. Also this was the week that we were supposed to really crave junk food and I would…

Mother’s Day
I realize this will change and that part of these feelings are just who I am but I don’t feel like I should be the one being celebrated for mother’s day. While there is always the obvious of all the mothers that have played a part in my life (whether it be my own mom…
Whole30: Week 1
As mentioned before I was already not eating gluten, dairy, and limited sugar before we started this Whole30. The Sunday before we started I gave in and shared a pizza with D and then ate BB’s mac and cheese with her. The following two days I was SO grumpy. I couldn’t even fake nice. I…
This week in photos
BB has found out how fun dog doors are… When you leave your toddler unsupervised in the front seat… they steal your snacks, and reorganize everything in the cup holder area! The city of Juneau’s fine work correcting a profanity! Since returning from Flagstaff BB asks for her Nana and Tata every time bubbles are…
I am my fathers daughter
I wrote this a while ago and hesitated posting it because my dad and I aren’t the most open about our feelings about each other but I still feel the same if not even more love for my dad now. I am breaking the rules of not talking about feelings and my dad at the…
Just so Juneau
