Hi everyone. I missed last week but will be there from now on. I'm Janelle. I'm mom to Milo (4), Willa (2) and Zeke and Gideon (3 months.) Yes, that's four under five. Zeke and Gideon were a big surprise, to say the least. I've been married to my husband Ron for seven years this May—and I turned 35 in February. I've been working at Baltimore magazine for five years as lifestyle editor—I do the Bride issue, fashion, gift guide, and a monthly column. Prior to that I was at the Washington Post. I'm currently negotiating a longer maternity leave—hopefully until September when my daughter will join my son at Montessori school. My husband and I love to travel and enjoy good food—from food trailer trucks to break the bank meals. I also love to read—currently reading Bossypants on my Kindle—and entertain.
About my family: Milo is sweet, shy, and becoming an amazing big brother. He has a wild imagination. He is obsessed with superheroes and riding his scooter. Willa is sassy and silly. I love her personality. She is going to rule the roost—even being the only girl. She's got crazy curly hair and loves everything that her brother touches. She loves to dance and play pretend. And my sweet new boys? Well, they still mostly eat/sleep/poop ... but they are both quick to smile, love their swings, are slowly sleeping through the night, and most of all light up when they see Milo & Willa. Ron is the GM of the Chipotle in the Can Company. He did marketing for them for a long time but was traveling almost every week. Now, he's two blocks away. And no, we don't eat Chipotle every day! Our favorite Sunday activity is hitting the farmer's market.
I've spent what feels like the last five years pregnant and its taken its toll on my body. I'm ready to feel good about my body and give myself two nights a week that are jut for me.
