Nursing Mom Goes To Dentist
I had an old filling go bad over the 3 day weekend, so instead of enjoying the Monday holiday with Don and our son, I made a fun trip to the dentist. UGH!!! They were able to get me in on short notice Monday morning, and I’m thankful for that. However, I didn’t have time … Continue reading

Mom Zombie
Mom Zombie & Daddy Too I’m so exhausted! For the last 5 nights we have been up EVERY 2 hours from 8 pm until 6 am. I’m not sure what’s going on, but I feel like the living dead. We have been through reverse cycling and I thought we had recovered from that experience, but … Continue reading

Where, oh Where Have the Sheep Gone….
Where have my counting sheep gone?! You know the ones you count and fall fast asleep…… I’ll tell you where they have gone. They bailed when they saw me try to remove the swaddlewrap. Yep, he’s almost 6 months and still semi-swaddled! I’m beginning to wonder if he will go off to college and still … Continue reading
Childproofing to the Next Level
In an effort to increase the play area of our living room and begin childproofing, Don has installed a built-in entertainment center. I’ll be honest, when he said he was going to build it himself I was NERVOUS! I wasn’t given a picture, plan or drawing of this project — just a description of a … Continue reading
