grocery shopping with a baby in tow couldn't be more comfortable in this geometric print dress i scored while thrift shopping at the most inconspicuous store in the city. aside from the fact that it comes in one of my favorite material which is linen, the button-down front is also a favorite feature. for a nursing mom like me, nothing is more discreet and functional than a six-button wonder dress. to top it all off, this huge tote which also doubles as a diaper bag is the very epitome of function and style rolled into one.

time flies like an arrow, like how my 2012 went by in a blur. in times like this, growing up and getting old feels like joining a marathon where everyone is itching to get to the finish line and everything else is hastened. looking back, it seemed like i was always in a rush to get something, to go somewhere, to accomplish one thing. always running, never pausing to evaluate and re-evaluate what all those road blocks were for. so at 28 and for 2013, my power word will be RELISH. relish each and every moment of everyday. to never take life in stride, to slow down, to mellow out. i have to learn to live life minute by minute and never by the big dots that mark my table calendar. most importantly, i need to master the art of keeping calm while dealing with all the hindering heftiness of a road block that is to be thrown my way. all these and a few more realizations and resolutions constituted after 3 cups of chocolate milk drink for the nursing mom that is moi.


but with that being said, i am still grateful for my swiftest and best year that is 2012 and all the blessings as well as uncertainties that came along with it. having another little girl that is my Vania Noelle and marrying my boyfriend of almost 6 years makes it the bestest best year evuuur!
