I must apologize in advance for dropping off the face of the planet for the past few weeks, I’ve been consumed by much more than a beautiful baby boy if you can believe it! Baby C was born on January 14 at 10:08 a.m., weighing in at 7 lbs 5 ounces and 20 inches. He […]
What’s in a name?
I am days away from having my baby and I can honestly say we have not chosen a name yet for him. Since finding out I was pregnant, the question “Have you chosen any names?” has been asked about 100 times. While people mean well, they literally don’t believe me when I say “Oh, not […]
Keep family organization in check with these apps
As much as I love to write everything down on pen and paper, let’s face it, there isn’t always a pen around to document and keep track of everything. As I get ready to welcome the birth of my second child, I’m trying to keep the family organized too. One thing I know that will […]
Thankful Thursday: First one of 2013
I really wish I kept up with the Thankful Thursdays my friend Joanna hosts over on her blog, Baby Gators Den, but there’s always something, and I end up pushing off doing this post. I feel it’s fitting now to write one seeing as though I’m two weeks away from my due date, and I […]
Oh Christmas Tree Part Two: You really are quite lovely
In the midst of all the hub bub I realized I never shared the finished product of the enormous Christmas tree we decided to welcome into our home this year. While we have this beautiful tree in our great room, we’ve already priced artificial trees of this size for next year, so we don’t have […]
Christmas gifts means post-Christmas “thank yous”
In the past, I never really gave it much thought to send a formal thank you card for a Christmas gift. Like a lot of people, most of the time I’ve exchanged in person with someone, and I’ve just thanked them at that moment. But, all of my husband’s family is on the west coast […]
35 weeks pregnant and a labor scare
I didn’t have all the drama that came along with the ride to the hospital when I had my daughter two years ago. She was six days late, I was induced, they broke my water, I pushed for awhile and then it ended it in a cesarean delivery. With this pregnancy we’re not really sure […]
Tips for dealing with sticky situations
With a combination of my daughter being old enough to do crafts and the fact that it’s the holiday season, we sure have had a lot of art materials floating around the house. So far we’ve used paint (for the first time!), crayons, glue sticks, stickers and frosting and candy for the gingerbread house. They […]
Oh Christmas Tree…how lovely are your branches
Let me start this by saying I love Christmas. I will continue to say that over and over in my head as I continue to write this. Back in November my husband, toddler, dog and I went to a local tree farm to tag our tree. That’s nothing unusual right? So we’re there, looking at […]
Unique gift ideas for new moms or moms-to-be
I’m at the end of my pregnancy and Christmas is around the corner. Double hooray! As we get closer to my favorite holiday, my family keeps asking me “What do you want for Christmas?” That’s tough to answer because I have 5 1/2 weeks left until the baby’s here, so I don’t want MORE maternity […]
Holiday hit list: Songs on my iPod
Since the day after Thanksgiving I’ve been in full-on Christmas mode. I swear my favorite things about the season have nothing to do with gifts. Well, I do like to shop and give to others, but the truth is- I LOVE the music, the movies, the food, the decorations, the sights, the sounds…all of that […]
