My weekends have become pretty predictable. Well, at least a little. Our weekends revolve around our son’s social calendar. Every weekend he’s got a birthday party to go to. Usually, my husband is his partner in party crime. I’m always running behind trying to get myself and the little princess ready so we don’t make […] Read more…

Am I Raising an Attorney?
When I would hear people complain about the “questions” stage with their kids, I thought they were being a bit “Debbie Downer” about it all. I mean, so what you hear the word “why” a million times a day. It’s how our kids learn, right? Right??!?!?! In the beginning of my son’s “questions” phase, I […] Read more…
De-Nile…It ain’t just an Egyptian River
I have been at home since May. That’s the month my bed rest began before my little princess was born in July. Now that she’s here, I’m having those feelings all over again. The same feelings I had when my son was born. I don’t want to leave her. I am more than getting used […] Read more…

I’m seven weeks in and being a mommy of two is not what I expected. To say I was worried would be an understatement.

I Speak Life
Last week, I took a walk with my newborn daughter. She was sleepy and super fussy, so we headed outside to walk and get some air. I didn’t even bother to get the stroller. I just held her, in my arms, close to my chest and walked. As we walked, I told her all about […] Read more…
Things Kids Say : On Aging
There is nothing like becoming a mama to keep me humble. Let me explain… I was hanging out in my son’s room, reading books. We were just shooting the breeze and then the following conversation went down. Son: Mommy, you have string in you hair. Me: I do? Son: Yeah, can I touch it? Me: […] Read more…
Things Kids Say…
Our son wakes up at least a half hour before us every morning. He plops down in the bed with us until it’s time to get up and get moving. It’s pretty much my favorite time of the day. I love the little bonding we do even that early in the morning. One morning while […] Read more…
She’s Here! Dates + Deets
On May 11th, I was put on partial bed rest. My world came to a screeching halt in an instant. To go from my usual routine to just about being dormant was a real eye opener. I was still working from home and so thought if this was “bed rest”, perhaps I could get through […] Read more…
