I have to be honest and say that last Friday was probably not the best day for me.  I won't go into detail, but emotions erupted early Friday morning between me and a family member.  I literally cried for 3 hours and spent the rest of the day and the middle of the night trying ...

We’ve wanted this baby for a long time. In Proud Daughter of Eve’s comment on my last post, she referred to a post I wrote back in August of 2006 about feeling ready for another baby after weaning Magoo. My heart was ready but my brain and body weren’t. If you’ve read this blog for long, you...

And I have to say I am not really surprised.  I mean it totally sucked that Jason broke up with her on national television.....but I mean are we really surprised? Basically, it did exactly what ABC wanted...it got everyone talking.  Moving on now. At Illuminate we had 3 baptisms.  ...

I know that isn't very exciting for you all to know, but it is the reason that I do not have a recap of what happened last night on the Bachelor. Actually, it was just the Women Tell All episode and while I truly enjoy hearing what every woman has to say about their experience on the show, I jus...

Yesterday I had my 20 week ultrasound.  I was pretty excited to see BBH again since it had been a few weeks since we last saw the munchkin.  And we had learned then that it was a boy. But I could tell my hubby just could not celebrate until he knew for certain, 100%, that there was a lit...

I am finally starting to feel a little bit more like myself.  The last few weeks have been really rough for me.   The way I have been feeling, so completely sick and rundown, you would think I was in my first trimester.  But no. Unfortunately, as the prego, I caught every nas...

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond to the questions. We had a busy weekend, including hearing Em LAUGH for the first time! And just last night she ROLLED OVER for the first time! She was doing Tummy Time in our living room, then leaned over and bloop! On her back! It wasn't on purpose, but it wa...

So tomorrow I'm heading out to my sixth (can it really be six?) CES - the consumer electronics gadget extravaganza here in Las Vegas. And like last year I'll be blogging about a lot of what I see over at Babble.com. In fact this year I even got a special "Blogger" pass which, as fa...

More than a week since my last post? Here's my wrist. Feel free to slap it. What have I been up to? Let's see. Last week I had lunch with my friend Leah and her 5-month-old daughter, followed by a class about developmental play. I learned some great tips for making Em's tummy time more enjoyable, al...

A very quick post.  I'm leaving Chris to his own devices (watching footie and comedies on tv) whilst I make a flying visit home.  I've yet to pack and choose some knitting and I only have 10 minutes! My gift knitting is not going to plan!  I'm already thinking of altern...
