It's almost impossible to believe it, but Sloan is turning two years old on Monday. This time next week, I'll be the mother of a toddler. It's been the greatest joy of my life to watch her grow and bloom into a young person with her own distinct personality. This weekend, we'll be celebrating by throwing her a small birthday party with family (which I'll be sharing the details of on Monday!) and spending some quality time doing Sloan's favorite things—which at this point includes going on the "big girl swings," playing "coffee shop" and counting to twelve. If I could, I would live in this weekend forever.

I recently had a girls' night with some of the moms from Sloan's music class, and it was the most fun I've had in awhile. We chatted and laughed for hours, and it felt good to remember that I'm still a person outside of my role as a mom. We talked a lot about travel, and the ...read more

G left on Wednesday for a six-day-long bike trip in Vermont with friends so I'm holding down the fort in L.A. Though I'd been away for lengthy work trips to New York in the past, G would always meet me there halfway through, so we wouldn't be apart for as long. Over dinner on ...read more
