Pride

I have had quite the long history with my boobs. I can remember from a young age wanting to hide them because I bloomed early. When my mom first encouraged me to wear a bra I insisted on only wearing sports bras because I felt that they weren’t really bras. Once I realized what control my boobs had over men […]

You know how you never really feel like a grown up? Like two mortgages, two cars, three children should be a pretty good sign that I’m grown up but I still keep expecting someone to march through the front door and override me (and no I’m not talking about what my five year old does everyday). Anyway, I feel just […]

Well, we survived our first family of five vacation! We packed especially light… Manuevered the airport seamlessly… Took in scenic views… We spent lazy mornings in bed… We spent days being pampered… And constantly got along… There were tons of opportunities to capture my beautiful family of five… All in all, though, we had a great time and I had […]

Happy 3rd birthday to my beautiful, smart, spunky little person. I know this has been a hard and exciting year for you. You had to learn to share your mommy with our new baby, but you have also learned to be a little mommy to our baby. The love and enthusiasm you give to Noah is so sweet and special. […]

I spend the majority of the time hating how I feel, all culminating to one enormous pain (in this case it […]

Thirteen days until I can take Noah to the gym with me. I have been so focused on that marker, a point which will alleviate some of the chaos of my life. Instead of dropping Drew off at school, Noah at my parents’ and Gabby at the gym kids club, we’ll be streamlined to two steps. Phew. The last week, […]

The last time I felt, as I did this morning, was after a long night of heavy drinking. There was nothing fun about the party I survived last night. The headache I woke up to was less fun than any hungover headache I have ever had. And rocking the night away has a whole other meaning! When my wake up […]
