Our very own cappuccinos

Jason brought out our espresso maker the other night and decided we should try to make our own fancy coffee drinks. One of our favorite things to do together is to snuggle up on the couch and drink coffee. Many may know that I have an expensive habit and that is my daily fix of an iced grande latte from Starbucks (with one splenda & a dash of cinnamon). I decided that I would try to support my habit some at home. We ground up some espresso beans-you should try illy. After pouring in a shot of espresso in each of our mugs, we filled the rest with steamed milk and foam! Jason put a tablespoon of vanilla syrup in each and topped them off with caramel. So yummy! I've had one three days in a row. It's no secret that you can do this at home-I was just really surprised at how much I enjoyed it and wanted to share! I think it would be fun to visit central market or Sur la table and stock up on more coffee supplies! Oh, and I promise it's okay to have caffeine when you are pregnant =)

We are very excited about finally starting our own blog! We have loved reading others' blogs and thought it would be fun to share our adventures with you. With our sweet baby boy arriving in just a few short months, we can keep all updated on his growth and progress. We can't wait to share pictures and stories with you. Hope you enjoy our blog!
