As I have mentioned before, once we found out about Baby #2, the Hubby was kicked out of our spare bedroom/office. I thought he would be a little more disappointed than he was though. Instead, he took this news as a challenge and turned our old dog/tool shed into his new home office. I thought… […]

My friends, and even Mother, keep insisting on how wonderful the crock pot is. I have very few encounters with this thing and the meals I have made from it have turned out rather, well just plain bad. A few years ago when I was newly pregnant with my daughter, I had a strong aversion […]
Composed yesterday. My daughter just locked herself in our bedroom. I thought kids did this when they were like… FOUR… not 21 months! We were playing a little game where she would shut the door on me and we’d take turns yelling back and forth to one another. I’d then open the door, say “I […]
For part of my husband’s 30th birthday, I ordered him a subscription to Sports Illustrated. This magazine comes once a week and he seems to enjoy them. Harmless, right? One thing I completely forgot about when deciding to get this for him was The Swimsuit Issue. You know, the one that has nothing to do […]
A new rule has been implemented in our household. The hubby has requested that I no longer “wake him up.” Of course I never intentionally try to wake him up, but on occasion it just happens. For example: Hubby is laying in bed and we are chatting away. He then turns over to get comfortable, and 1-2 minutes […]
I feel a little guilty for thinking/feeling the way I did… but I was kind of hoping to come home from my weekend away to find the house a little messed up, the dishes in the sink, toys strewn about the house, sippy cups crusty with milk, our bed unmade, etc. Though I probably would […]
(Composed throughout yesterday) I am heading back to Pullman today from my Weekend Away, and boy, I sure did pack in as much as I could while in Reno. To start, for those of you who read my last post, A Weekend Away, I thought I’d give a little update of how the travels actually went […]
I am leaving today for Reno for my baby shower! Yahoo! And no, Gwyneth is NOT going with me… this Mama is flying solo! I just pictured myself galloping through the airport because my husband believes in getting there JUST in time to catch the flight; 8 1/2 months pregnant; arms full of a 30 […]
I don’t think Gwyneth truly understands that a new baby is coming into our home in a matter of weeks. I mean, she will do some pretty cute things like kiss my belly, point to it and say “baby,” and give it a big squeeze, but as for truly comprehending that her life is about […]
My darling daughter. Ohhhhhhhhh, my darling, darling daughter. I went to coffee with my Silly Monkey recently, and as I was ordering I was holding Gwyneth in my arms when she pointed toward one of the shelves and said, “Mommy!” What was she trying to show me? Nothing seemed outrageously awesome, and the yummy treats […]
