that time my son peed in a restaurant
To set the tone of this story, I need to let you know how much I hate taking Carter to restaurants these days. As much as I love going out to eat, taking him with me is just not worth the delicious food. Especially since I’m pregnant and can’t even indulge in a glass of wine (or a shot of Jack…which sounds much more appealing these days…). It’s not that I don’t love taking him places. I just need those {Read More}
welcome back!
So another writing hiatus has come and gone and while you probably haven’t known what to do with yourself without the snarky commentary on my life and adorable pictures of my son, I trust that you have all managed to get by somehow. Thank you, my dear readers, for your patience! As you can see, things are looking pretty different around here! I’ve been working pretty hard on a blog re-design and have been working on an editorial calendar of {Read More}
things like THIS
Perhaps what I was trying to describe here was much better described with this. Anyone else have tears in their eyes or am I just an overly emotional pregnant woman?! The “Thank you, Mom” campaign by P&G is a great concept as moms certainly don’t get the appreciation they deserve on a daily basis. *Thank you to MY mom! You didn’t mother an Olympic athlete or have to send me off on buses or anything, but you did a pretty {Read More}
monday motivation: closet reorganization
Today I blogged over on The Household Helper about closet reorganization for Motivation Monday. I am knee-deep in a million home projects as we prepare for our little girl to make her appearance in what feels like next week. One of those huge ones is reconfiguring my closet space as I lose all my extra storage and junk space in our guest room as it becomes my son’s new “big boy” room. It really wouldn’t be me to do anything {Read More}
state of a pregnancy: 28 weeks
Since we last discussed this pregnancy three weeks ago, our family has taken a week long trip to Virginia, added a new room to our home, started a new job, lost every ounce of motivation to stay on top of daily tasks and tackle projects and are currently battling a “very bad case” of hand, foot and mouth disease in one 19-month old. No one ever wants to hear “very bad case” and “disease” in the same sentence, ever, but {Read More}
he’s so sneaky
Yesterday I was lucky enough to be home for dinner with Jason and Carter. This happens zero times during the week as I work part time in the evenings, so it was pretty awesome. C clearly says “eat!” now when he’s hungry, which is all the time, so when I heard him chirping “eat! eat! eat!” behind me, I didn’t think much of it. I was finishing up getting his plate ready and was about to pick him up and {Read More}
life lately, according to my phone
On Friday, I talked about my love for The Rockstar Diaries blog. My love affair is continuing, my friends. One of the reoccurring posts I’ve been really enjoying are her “life lately, according to my iphone pictures” ones. I was inspired to browse through my phone (and Jason’s!) and compile a similar summary. Here’s our life lately, according to one Galaxy and one iPhone (and a little playing in Instagram on the iPad!): We love stripes, bath time, playing outside {Read More}
favorite thing friday
Two Friday’s ago I posted about some of my favorite things. Today, I decided to link up with Jenny at Sippy Cup Chronicles for her weekly favorite thing Friday post – and follow the rules and post about just one thing this week. My favorite thing this week is a blog – well, more specifically, the blogger and her adorable family! Meet Taza over on The Rockstar Diaries! She is fashionable and free-spirited and I really enjoy reading about their {Read More}
state of a pregnancy: 25 weeks
So we’ve hit the big 2-5. This pregnancy is flying by at a pace that makes me super uncomfortable considering all that still needs to be done before the little miss makes her appearance. Jason and I are making huge life changes at a rapid pace…or, in other words, everything is status quo with us. In the next couple of weeks he’s starting a new job and we’re closing off our two story foyer and making it into a study. {Read More}
