As most of my readers know, I work from home. My husband and I own CooperHouse and we are lucky enough to be VERY busy building websites for lots of awesome people. We ADORE being home with our girls and getting to be present for all those important moments in these early years, but we [...]
I went to my first Oklahoma City Thunder game last night. It wasn’t just ANY game… It was a battle between my former home town, Denver, and my new hometown, OKC. OKC prevailed, thanks to some seriously amazing playing by Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. In general I’m not really a sports fan, but being [...]
Right next to my iPhone, vitamins (Yes Mother, I’m taking the B12 you suggested.), and a giant glass of water, I’ve been making room for these reads: I picked up this copy of Design*Sponge at Home at a local shop, Blue Seven.

Our other girl cats were already 6 and 7 years old and at first they didn’t love having a little rambunctious kitten around. Before long though, they’d each staked our their [...]
Hello all! I hope your MLK day (off) was nice and relaxing. As you can see by looking around, I did a little update on the blog over the holiday weekend. I like to rearrange my house and my blog fairly often. :) It makes me feel all fresh and fancy. If you’re viewing this [...]
I wanted to write a quick wrap-up for those of my readers who are pregnant. Even though I’ve done this before, there were a few things I forgot about the first few weeks after having a baby. 1. Week # 2 is HELL. The first week, yes, you’re exhausted, but you’re still basking in the [...]
