Nostalgic

The other day you asked me why I am so mean to you, it made me think. Sophomore year of college I was struggling to get around without a car. When I talked to my mom about it and how my high school car wouldn’t work going back and forth, she bought me a new car. I was so surprised […]

There was no pomp and circumstance. There was no chinsy robe or anything. He wore a cute paper hat that looked like a cap but no tassel. Yet, he’s still a graduate. As I explained when we went to his first orientation into kindergarten, I wasn’t feeling very sad about the whole thing. He goes to two and a half […]

Not long ago I was bitching and moaning about my ongoing nursing issues and my friend asked me point blank…why not stop? Why not make it easier on yourself? Hm…there’s a thought. Noah is nearing five months and I am still going strong. I’ve actually gotten myself in a very nice rhythm where I’m minimally put out by it and […]

More and more I’m finding Noah to look (and frighteningly act) like Drew. Maybe it’s all of the hand me downs he’s been sporting. Maybe it’s because he’s my second boy so it’s only natural I compare them. Whatever it is, it’s taking me on a major trip down memory lane. I’ve been dusting off some oldies but goodies of […]

For awhile, Noah’s sole existence was to eat, sleep and scream. I wouldn’t exactly say that we are out of those stages but we have added smiling into the mix.

Time is such a funny thing. How in some ways something could seem like it went so fast, yet you can’t remember life before. That pretty much sums up the last seven weeks, which I’m afraid will become the last seven years…seventeen years, etc. before I know it. As much as people tell me to enjoy the moment, it’s hard […]

At times, when reviewing products, I think it may be hard for viewers to take you completely seriously. It’s no secret that I’ve been given these goods for free or at a very STEEP discount so that I can try it out and tell you all what I think of it. And with most things I am pretty honest since […]

With the upcoming birth of our third child, I am always looking for a good way of charting our family’s developments. I’m not good with the whole scrapbooking thing. And given that Gabby’s baby book is far less filled than Drew’s, this third kid doesn’t stand a chance! The nice thing about Facebook is that I’m able to document things […]

We had an excellent weekend. It wasn’t because we went on vacation or did anything extraordinary. We managed to have a perfect amount of plans and a surprisingly great amount of unstructured downtime. Sunday the blues started though. Today I woke up utterly exhausted and feeling unready to conquer the week. Then I remembered what Mondays used to be like, […]
