It's been an interesting week. Our daughter decided to make her debut 3 weeks early. Or rather, our doctor decided to induce for her and my health and safety. Long story short, I was totally unprepared for her early arrival, save for my hospital bag and her carseat already in the car. It's been an … Continue reading My Early Bird/ Happy Thanksgiving
My Tapdancing Batman is Sick
I have a chore schedule/list that I progress through each week. According to that list, yesterday was living rooms and bedrooms day... no progress was made. My little dude woke up with a low grade fever that spiked around noon. So, having accepted that nothing was going to get completed, I resigned myself to Chief … Continue reading My Tapdancing Batman is Sick
Baby #2 is a… ?
Before I get to the exciting part, the "gender reveal," I'll tell you all a little story, 'cause blog. So with our first child, a son, we initially elected not to find out the gender until baby was born. Because in the words of my grandpa, "If God had wanted you to know ahead of … Continue reading Baby #2 is a… ?
Men Suck!…?
I pledge to raise upstanding young boys who grow up to be respectful and chivalrous young men. If your daughters can't handle that, they don't deserve my sons.

The spontaneous, perky, loud-mouthed, hockey-loving, stout-drinking, reckless, singer passed away at some point between conception of my son and his birth. And with him … Continue reading Facing My Mom-tality
Apple Juice, Blanket Forts, and Coloring Books
One of my biggest assumptions in being a parent was that I really needed to grow up before I brought a child into the world. Sitting on my couch in my Snuggie™ coloring in a Disney coloring book with my box of 164 crayons, drinking a glass of apple juice, I told myself, "wow, you're … Continue reading Apple Juice, Blanket Forts, and Coloring Books
“No” Fatigue
Do you ever have those days (or weeks, or months, or years) where it just seems like there's constantly one mess after another? Physical messes like sickness, or cheerios, or spilled smoothie; mental messes like locking the keys in the car (or house), having to take the car in to be serviced for the "check … Continue reading “No” Fatigue
I Can Pick My OWN Nose, Thank You!
There are so many things I say now as a mother of a 9-month-old boy that I never imagined would leave my mouth. Here are some of the more weird ones: "Outlets are for plugs, not your fingers." "No, kiss Daddy's face, not slap it!" "Stop licking the dog's mouth!" "Spit out that fur!" (He … Continue reading I Can Pick My OWN Nose, Thank You!
