Here We Go Again
The Universe has spoken. Apparently it was tired of my fertility flip-flopping and made the decision for me. Yes, I am pregnant with baby #3. And it just so happens that I got rid of most of my baby stuff just last month. Fortunately, I have plenty of fertile friends and family members who are […]
The Dirty Truth
The dirty truth is that my life is filled with poop. Dog poop, cat poop, boy poop, and baby girl poop. It’s an awful word; one that I never thought would be a main part of my vocab, let alone clean up 50 times a day. Nevertheless, somehow it has entrenched my life. So much […]
Oh Baby Girl…
Having a baby girl is dangerous, especially after having two boys. There is an obscene amount of gorgeous clothing, shoes, and accessories geared towards little girls and their susceptible mothers. Anyone with boys is aware of the unfair balance of cuteness that exists in local baby departments. To put it simply, the amount of pink […]
What’s In A Name?
Everything. I believe the name that you give your child means everything. And whether you consciously realize it or not, the name you give them is almost always the name they were supposed to have. Haven’t you ever noticed how most kids look like the name they were given? It doesn’t matter if you like […]
Giving Thanks
It seems like just yesterday I was pregnant with my third child, but it wasn’t yesterday. In fact, it has been a little over three weeks ago that I gave birth to Lilah Frances. My c-section recovery is going slower than I would like, but the boys, baby girl, and I are finally starting to […]
Did Ryan Seacrest Really Say That?
I am amazed at what people say sometimes. Especially, single dorky men that obviously do not have a clue about women. Many men fit this bill, but the culprit I’m referring to in this blog is Ryan Seacrest. Even if you don’t recognize the name, I’m quite certain you’ve seen his face. He seems to […]
Pink or Blue… Does it Really Matter?
Here’s the deal. Of course, I want a healthy baby and the sex doesn’t really matter. However, I wouldn’t be totally honest if I didn’t say that after two boys in blue a little pink baby girl would be great. Okay, it would be fantastically great. Alright, alright, it’s what I’ve always wanted (at least […]
Is Three a Crowd?
Should I or shouldn’t I have a third child? That is a question I have been asking myself for over a year now. I have two sons ages 2 1/2 and 5. Part of me would love to add a little princess to the mix. Although if she turns out anything like I was as a […]
Bumbo Baby
I have to tell you about a great baby chair my friends had at a barbecue that I recently attended. It looked like a cushioned booster seat with a wide handle that came up between the baby’s legs. They called it a Bumbo Seat. My friend’s five-month-old little girl was happily passed around to guests […]
