Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

Penelope Jane

 

 

 

 

So...I had a baby on Saturday night!

 

 

Penelope Jane Humiston joined us on February 2, 2013, weighing in at 7lbs 2oz and 19 inches in length. We are all doing great and are obviously so in love with our little sweet P!

 

 

Thank you so much for all of your well wishes over the last months, weeks and days. You are the best and I couldn't wait to tell you all our most amazing news! More to come soon!

 

 

Meanwhile, we'll be snuggling up our little girl...
