Hi Everyone! Things have been crazy since the holidays. I admit I always have a hard time getting back into the swing of work after having some glorious time at home with the baby but here is what we have been up to in the last few weeks...
Reading List.
I just finished a book called Women Food and God. I saw it on an Oprah re-run on OWN. It's about food and your relationship with food. I always heard people say if you had a weight problem then you had issues and I never really related to that statement. I have never had any trauma in my life but this book helped me realize that it can be much simpler and much more unconscious than that. Basically if at some point you began to deal with your emotions with food then you became comfortable with eating when you weren't hungry or eating things that your body doesn't want or things that don't make you feel good. It's a great book on that front. A slight warning. Do not let the word God in the title make you think this is a religious book. I really do not understand the title at all but the author does not have traditional Christian beliefs but I think you can very much relate her lessons to your own faith no matter what it is.
Currently I am reading Onward which about Starbucks. I am really into reading books about companies and how they started out right now. It seems good but probably not for everyone.
Next up, I want to read Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and the Steve Job's Biography.
I got my January Birchbox and I love it. If you have no idea what Birchbox is or want to join click HERE. I got some great samples including this face cream called Algenist and it's amazing.
Did I mention that this is a bad dog?
This is Jack and on Saturday I stepped (literally one foot) outside my door to grab the mail and he sneaked out and took off down the street. We did not notice that he was gone for about 10 minutes and luckily our sweet neighbor grabbed him as he stood in the middle of an intersection causing me to run down the street in the pouring rain to grab him. Anyway, he's a bad dog (at least right now otherwise he's pretty great).
Otherwise it's been work and Baby E all of the time. Baby food making, playing, learning to pull up and walk, etc. Hope everyone is going great!
Love- Jessica

she gets cuter by the day!!
Precious E! Sweet puppy. That kind of thing scared me so bad. I am thinking about splurging on BIrchbox for myself as a birthday present this year. I need some ideas for a great face cream.
Bad puppy, but cute as a button puppy! He's adorable, but not as adorable as Baby E - what a sweet smile she has!
I finished Steve Job's biography recently & it was terrific. One of the best books I read last year! And Foer's book is on my to-read list.
Your little one is absolutely adorable! Women Food and God sounds like a worthwhile book; I certainly related to your summary. I also want to read Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.
Your photos are fabulous. Your baby is adorable!
Now...I have to go check out Birchbox.
Normally I don't learn post on blogs, but I wish to say that this write-up very compelled me to take a look at and do it! Your writing taste has been surprised me. Thank you, quite nice post.
