party crashers

You know how much I love alternate titles: just a frumpy mom, hanging in a fancy mag

Hey there. I'm just popping in between itty bitty anxiety attacks about the laundry, the state of the house, the number of postpartum dinners I've made (zero), the laundry again, and Simon's July rotation that might kill us all because my name is Grace and it's June 17th and I specialize in unproductive + unnecessary stress. We all have those weeks, I'm sure.

Anyway! Enough insight into my rosy mind. Moving onto something bigger and better. Onward and upward for the win, for now.

You thought you were done being subjected to bump shots after Phoebe was born, didn't you? Well, you thought wrong!

The weekend before Phoebe was born we took the kids to the park and Simon kindly snapped the photo below of me and Phoebe (in utero) for CupcakeMag's summer issue. Yes, they let me and Phoebe formerly known as bump crash their hip fiesta.


The issue came out today and is awesome and you can read the whole thing for free right here. There are more Grace + Phoebe photos on page 111. You know you're tempted to clicky click right on over.

Alright, Phoebe saw me eying the laundry and is starting in on one of her infamous episodes that we've all grown to know and love. I think we'll watch a little drama a la Andi and her suitors to try and cheer her up. Hopefully the apple didn't fall far from her trashy tree of a mom and she's sucked right in.


BRB, you know how we roll around here.

  7. Love your preggo style. I'm all about stripes while pregnant- I think they flattery and accentuate the bump lump.

  10. So cute. And don't worry about meals. I didn't cook for... dunno how long. Blocked it from my memory. I said it while you were pregnant and I'll repeat again: Trader Joe's. No shame in my frozen meal game. For serious, the mandarin chicken with the bags of Jasmine rice. YUM. Add some veggies or fruit and ma'am, that's a full meal.

  11. how cool, you look great! don't worry about the laundry, it'll still be there. As for the meals, it took me a long, long time before I got there. To be honest, I don't really remembered what we did to get by, we somehow did. It was all a haze, but we got through it. We all have those weeks :)
