About this blog: I'm a wife, stay-at-home mom, home cook, marathon runner, and PhD. I recently moved to the Silicon Valley after completing my PhD in Social Psychology and becoming a mother one month apart. Before that, I ran seven marathons including Chicago and Boston. Exercise is an integral part of my life. I hope to one day go back to long distance running and tackle the New York City Marathon. Right now I run after my one year old son. Although I am a stay-at-home mom, we are rarely "at home." My mom also stayed at home with my brother and me. She warned me that, although rewarding, it can be isolating. So, with her help, I learned the importance of getting out into the community and meeting other mothers. On the rare occasion when I am at home and have a hand or two free, I squeeze in time to scrapbook. As a new mom, many challenges are thrown my way. I hope my opinions, triumphs, and struggles help experienced parents reminisce, new parents cope, and parents-to-be get an honest glimpse of what the first years of motherhood can entail.

A trip to the Exploratorium
Uploaded: Aug 16, 2016
Over the weekend our family visited the Exploratorium. One of our favorite exhibits was
the Strandbeests. If you haven't seen them yet, the Strandbeests are huge sculptures that "walk." Our son enjoyed pushing one with his grandmother and our daughter had a great time watching one powered by pressurized air.
It's rare to find an exhibit that grabs all of our family's attention so fully. I usually feel lucky to find exhibits that interest both kids and I end up enjoying their excitement. To find one that kept our entire family's interest for an extended period of time, that was definitely worth the trip.
Thank you Exploratorium! For an amazing exhibit that entertained our whole family.
