There are 3 things that I need to have done so I can really feel great about things. They've been the same 3 things for many years and they haven't change now that I am a mum. Completing this list of 3 makes me feel really good and gives me the illusion that I am on top of things.
1. A fresh pedicure with lush colour.
2. Trimmed up hair with a little added colour.
3. Eyebrow wax at Aveda.
Even when my life is really hectic and I am totally exhausted these 3 things help make me feel on track. They help give me the sense that I have enough time to take care of myself and that really rocks. Right now I've completed 2 of the 3 and I'm feeling pretty good with that.
My eyebrows are shaped and my toes are painted a glossy hue of 'It's All Greek To Me' by OPI. Life is great when you take time for yourself.
Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!

Good for you to pamper yourself Mama! Those are three things I would love to do right now (minus the hair colour, since, at 42, I'm embracing my natural silver - though I've had a lot of fun hair colours in the past).
