When I think of my kids, I’m reminded of how old I am. Not so much in a bad way. It’s just that I sometimes think of all the things that were so common to me when I was growing up. These things will be so foreign to them. As I sit and think, some […] Read more…

What’s the Opposite of a Good Time?
There are some things you can’t fully understand until you’ve gone through it. Pregnancy, childbirth and parenthood are on that list. I’d like to add one more… bed rest. You’d think that I was at Club Med being pampered (I wish). Half of the time, that’s the feeling I get when people hear that I’m […] Read more…
Mode Monday: Summer Dreamin’
Being pregnant last time was no big deal – fashion wise. I wasn’t big until the fall/winter months. Wearing jeans and sweaters or a dress here and there was easy. This time it’s a wee bit different.

By seven and half months they were no longer buttoning . Yeah, they were like, “girrrrrll, stop playing.” […] Read more…
When it comes to Father’s…
Every May is a big deal. Mother’s all over are honored. There are brunches, dinners, flowers, jewelry and anything else you can think of. We typically go all out to honor our mothers. It’s been that way for awhile. It seems that for some, Father’s Day is an afterthought. I don’t even think it’s always […] Read more…

Time to Sit it Down
He told me to sit my butt down! These are the instructions I received from my doctor a few weeks ago. Apparently, baby girl was trying to make her way into this world much too soon. So, the solution was to take me out of work way before I planned to leave. Can’t do to […] Read more…
