She likes the snow; for me, the jury is still out

December 20, 2010

I’ve mentioned my feelings on winter before, correct?  We’ve discussed my disdain for the cold temperatures, my rage when snow, ice or freezing rain keep me house (or town) bound for days on end.  And I’ve mentioned that in this town winters are down right brutal and seem never ending.  So, really. We don’t need [...]

Change of leaves, change of plans

November 12, 2010

I was going to write about my pregnancy today.  About how I love these weeks.  I am comfortable in maternity clothes but still rocking the 3-inch heels.   The baby is moving around a lot, I feel pretty good and am basically just starving all the time.  For serious.  I found myself justifying eating my lunch at [...]

Family Pictures

October 8, 2010

Early in our relationship, Craig learned three things about me.  1.  Cards are as important as the gift.  I want to know that you stood in Wal-Mart and agonized over a card that would say the perfect thing to me on my birthday, anniversary or Valentines Day.  Yes, I know that maybe they are a [...]

“Uh… WHAT, Mom?”

August 31, 2010

I swear when she looks at me like this, my mind lurches forward 14 years and I’m telling her that she will stop texting her friends at 2:00 am or I will take the phone from her when she goes to bed.  And, at the very moment that we have this discussion, my mother will be confused [...]

Little Miss Independent

June 16, 2010

O my.  My child has decided that she will be independent now. At dinner, she no longer wants to wait for me to bring the spoon to her mouth.  After a bite or two, she’s reaching for it, trying to pry it out of my hand and “helping” me feed her.  Then she chews on [...]

Pillow Talk

June 3, 2010

Me:  Hon, tonight while nothing on the computer went the way I wanted it too, I was looking through pictures from when C was itty bitty.  Him:  Oh? Me:  Yep, there are pictures from the hospital, the first few days home and her snuggling in bed with me after you got up for work. There are [...]

I dare you to tell me there’s anything sweeter than a sleeping child

May 26, 2010

Because if you don’t awww, just a little, over these pictures, you probably kick kittens too.    Do you remember when I whined ad nauseum about my child not napping? I’m happing to report she has gotten much better. (Note to self, you’re gonna jinx it) These photos were snapped over the weekend after she [...]

Sunshine & summertime

May 16, 2010

I’m getting better at this turning work off on the weekends thing.  Do I feel bad about it when Monday arrives? Yes.  Well, sort of.  Knowing that I could work all weekend and still be behind helps me to feel better about shutting it down or only putting in a little bit of time.  Some [...]
