My name is Jessica Grizzaffi and I affectionately refer to our home as the Grizz Hizz. Inside you will find lots of crazy, and lots of love. My hubby and two precious babes provide me with plenty of material to blog about. At any point of any day I could be an actor or realtor, but I'm always wife and mom and wouldn't trade it for the world.
We kicked off summer with our second annual beach vacay. Some may say scheduling your vacation for Memorial Day weekend is like peaking early, but it’s not brutally hot yet and let’s face it, if you get appendicitis two weeks prior, you’re lucky you went anywhere at all!
When you’re sent home from the hospital because you think your water broke but you actually just peed yourself, it’s one thing. When you’re sent home from the hospital because you thought you had appendicitis but it was just bad gas, it’s another.
Let’s talk about the four essential things babies need to sleep and SLEEP WELL!
There are lots of benefits of being in real estate. Being your own boss. Setting your own schedule. Coming home when your wife pukes.
No, I’m not talking about that ridiculous show that my husband sometimes watches. I’m talking about being a first time mom. When your baby is born, she is naked, and you are AFRAID.
Technician at nail salon: “When’s your baby due?”
Me: “I already had her. 4 weeks ago.”
This is not another post about baby weight, although it does contain a weight loss story of epic proportion. With Halloween approaching, it makes sense to tell the tale of the monster cyst. But let’s back up.
It’s called baby weight for a reason. Cuz you gotta wait. Forever. For it to go away. I have found the easiest way to lose inches after having a baby is to…get a haircut. Forget Weight Watchers - if you go to the hair salon, you can lose 4 inches FAST. And drink wine while you do it.
Work trip? Jessica, don't you stay home? Oh yes, friend, I do. But when you take your three very young kids to the beach, it is not considered vacation, (because there is no actual rest) it's considered WORK. But when you've been holed up in your house for 8 weeks with a newborn and 2 toddlers and your friend who also has a new baby tells you she booked a last minute trip to the beach, you also book a last minute trip to the beach!
I am finally not pregnant anymore! Thanks be to God for a healthy baby and smooth delivery!
We’re going to take a break from the pregnancy chronicles and talk about the leap of faith we took last summer – leaving traditional health insurance behind.
We're at t-minus four weeks, and things are getting real. Real...uncomfortable. Like insomnia, heartburn & hemorrhoids, (oh my!) kind of uncomfortable.
#WhatIWore is not a hashtag I use often. Mostly because I don’t need to draw attention to what I wore…
Feeling pretty confident as a parent? Nothing like a little daylight saving time to take you down a notch…
I was given a true gift this weekend - a night away from my loving family.
I know Valentine’s just passed but we’re gonna talk about a love affair - two, really - and how they intertwined to bring about my future. These two love affairs I speak of?
Forget Christmas - to some, THIS is the most wonderful time of the year: Adult Spring Break. Or as it’s more commonly known, the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo…
You know that person you trust and feel safe with, who knows intimate details of your life, and knows what you need before you even ask? No, not your spouse…
