My husband and I are planners. So, obviously we want to plan ahead and pick a baby name. Now, like any little girl, I thought of a ton of names that I absolutely loved and said that I will name my child that no matter what my husband says. Did you hear that whoosh? Because that […]
Let me set the scene. We are at a local farm and play attraction, Long Acre Farms. I bend over to get something out of my bag and I hear a weird tear/crack. I think “Oh dang, I must have ripped my tank top. No biggie.” Yeah, well I started feeling a poke under my boob […]
OK. I admit it. I swear like a sailor. Some people drink, some smoke, some devour chocolate like it is going out of style. But swearing is my vice, my addiction. It all started when I was 12 years old. Being in middle school is pretty intimidating, so you are doing all you can do […]
So, I was taking the batteries out of a puzzle that Sophie got for Christmas. You know, one of those annoying, won’t-name-names brand of puzzles that are light sensitive?

One of my biggest pet peeves of driving, besides people not using their blinkers, is talking and texting while driving. Do people honestly forget how dangerous this is?! When I worked for an insurance company, I had about a 27 minute drive to work. I took back country roads to get there and you would […]
April 2012: So, making mom friends was new to me. I thought “How am I going to relate to these women who have all these kids when I have just one sleepy lil nugget that I still carry around in a car seat?” She can’t run, play, eat real food, or do much of anything. […]
So, I want to do a FULL disclosure. I found this costume through Pinterest and I fell in love! (see below for original post. Please keep reading for my additions!) I followed her instructions for the most part, but I am a pretty crafty person so I made a few changes. Instead of felt for the cape, […]
