A Few Recommendations for Happiness

This past week i have learned (or relearned) a few things that make me happy and thought that i should share them with you all.



1)Take away all the toys and play with your kids. Now that we're in New York, without hardly any toys or anything to do, both Jeter and Jerzi's personalities are coming out more and more. I can't believe how Jete's imagination just started growing like crazy. I am loving playing with these two and seeing what new things they do each day.





2)Lindt Lindor Truffles. Oh man, these are freaking good!




3)Go out for a run, preferably in the rain. It makes you feel amazing!





4)If you want your baby to sleep through the night, let them cry it out. If you think you're too tired and that it will be easier to just hurry and get up, feed her, and go back to sleep, I promise, it will be worth it in a few days when you get a full night sleep without waking up once. Yay for sleeping through the night again, finally!





5)If your 2 year old asks you for something to eat, don't ignore him. He'll find a way to get it without your help.

Exhibit A:





6)Four people living in a one bedroom apartment is not going to kill you, like i once thought.
(But i wouldn't recommend it.)





7)Plan a vacation. Even if it's not gonna happen for awhile, it will still put a smile on your face.

  6. Hi Cindy,
    Liked your post and especially loved the picture of the cheese - so true. One morning, I woke up to seeing a whole loaf of bread and a big bread knife right before my eyes. Kinley was hungry. I also like the running in the rain one, until I realize I have been running in the rain for months now and want to have a break. Also like the plan a vacation -- good idea. Why are you in New York?
