I’ve been dying to write and tell you my natural birth story. My first birth story. It was easily my most intense experience in my life thus far, and yet, as birth stories go, mine was relatively straight-forward. And I mean that with gratitude, as everything went swimmingly, although it was a long and painful […]
Me-time, tea time!
Hello, this is me… surviving eight weeks with my first baby girl! To be honest, I’ve only really had to “survive” three weeks by myself, because my mom stayed with us for the first month (as every Latina mother does), and that was really helpful. I dreaded the day she went away— not only because […]
Pregnancy must-haves (lifesavers!)
I feel like I haven’t been able to write in forever! These have been crazy months, what with the Christmas season, most of our work projects ending, my family coming over for the holidays and the arrival of our baby girl. I had a few pregnancy-related posts in mind I wanted to publish before she was […]
What to pack in your hospital bag? Checklist!
I really needed to get my hospital bag ready because guess what? Mini Cooquette is just a month away! Well, at least that’s what the doctor estimates but given her nonstop activity and size I have a feeling she’ll be knocking on our doors before Christmas. Who knows exactly, some people say firstborns come in […]
Happy Thanksgiving with Friends: Rachel’s Trifle!
Any true Friends fan has seen the happy Thanksgiving episode where Rachel is in charge of making the dessert and she eagerly decides to make an English trifle. It was the first time she was truly in charge of a key element in any Thanksgiving dinner and, even with her attention to detail, things didn’t […]
WeAllGrow Familia & the powerful Latino Parenting Community
After a week of alterations around our new home (we moved about a month ago!) I’ve finally had time to sit down and relive the magical day I had last weekend in Los Angeles. I attended the wonderful “WeAllGrow Familia”, a one-day conference for Latino influencers working in the parenting lifestyle world. The event was […]
Baby showers + Baby Reveal: We’re having a…
I believe I’ve kept this secret for way too long. It’s time for our baby reveal! But first, let’s talk about how crazy these past weeks have been… We’ve had some time to get in our last trips of family time, which means we’ve flown about 5 times in just 2 months! We’ve traveled to […]
Hispanic Heritage Month TAG
Hispanic Heritage month ends today but that doesn’t mean the celebrations of Latino heritage have to cease! My friend Rocio Mora, from the fabulous curly style YouTube channel RisasRizos, started this really fun Hispanic Heritage Month Tag and, since I just came back from a trip to Honduras, my home country, I am definitely inspired […]
Traveling while pregnant: long flights & travel
If you know me, you know I love to travel. In fact, I think I’ve traveled at least once a month for the past year and a half. Being pregnant wasn’t going to stop me, at least not before the third trimester, and among my travels was a 3-week summer vacation with our family in […]
Fall-off-the-bone BBQ Ribs!
It’s Labor Day weekend and there’s still time in the year to barbecue one more thing: BBQ RIBS! Besides the fact that these are fall-off-the-bone ribs, they are super convenient: you can make them with or without an outside grill! I must disclose that I’m being very sure and positive about these BBQ ribs because […]
