My dog is wonderful. I can’t even believe that she’s going to be four in June. She is sweet and cuddly. And she smiles. She follows us around all day long and when I leave the room and a little…

I’ve never quite cut it this close.
It appears that I had low fuel today. I went back to work, and I’m not kidding – it didn’t even OCCUR to me to check how much gas Lola had. Throughout my entire maternity leave, I bet I filled…
Potty Training. Post #2.
It’s been exactly one week and five days since we started this nightmare journey. (Dramatic much? Absolutely.) Last Friday, my last day of maternity leave, I had a total, “Go-buy-some-pull-ups” breakdown. (But was I willing to use them? No.) I…
Finally I can sleep.
My question has been answered. (Where were we without the google? I’ll tell you where: at the library.) Stop putting tomatoes in the fridge. I never know which fruits and vegetables to put in the fridge. I absolutely put my…
Online shoe shopping highs and lows. Welcome to my world.
I have been trying to find these shoes in my size for about 3 weeks now. First, they had ’em on nordstroms.com. I weighed the purchase (as all good online shoppers do) and went back the next day to buy…

I love smiling babies.

Farewell. An [annoying] right of passage. Again.
Who wants to leave that face?! I’ve done this before. I’ve returned to work 12 weeks after experiencing the most momentous life-change I could ever imagine. And I just want to get it over with already. I’m writing this on…
Reese’s eggs, peeps and Jesus.
This is a big day for those of us who believe in God, Jesus and the whole resurrection. As a parent, I’m in shock and awe that anyone would allow His child to die for someone else. Sacrifice. However, I…
Seriously? Another birthday? It’s true.
April is a VERY busy birthday month! A happy, happy day to my friend over at Snappy Tulip. Friend, I hope this day is filled with LOTS of sleep (for you and the boys) and wonderful things. You’re a great Mom and a…
