I’ve mentioned this before, but Cameron loves to stand. In fact, we can hold this three month old little boy’s hands and he will (slowly) walk a few steps. There are lots of times when he simply isn’t happy unless he is on his feet. On Saturday afternoon, the Hubs was hanging out with Cameron,…

Mommy Pictures
One of the fifty million MommyBlogs I read is by Meredith who thought up this fabulous idea called “In the Photo Fridays”. The whole idea is that we Moms are always behind the camera taking pictures of our little ones that we rarely have pictures of ourselves. Some day, I am sure that I will…
Mommy’s Prayer
We’ve known Cameron has been a fan of music since way back in the pregnancy days. We would go to listen to our friend Bob play music at a local pub, and our little unborn bub shimmied and shook during each performance. And anytime I sang, my little SpaghettiO would be all a-wiggle. Now that…
Mommy Sighs
So, I’ve been feeling kind of low today. Well – that’s not entirely true. Today was a lovely, sunny, hot summer day. Cameron and I cuddled around the house until the Hubs was ready to come home from work. Then Cameron and I took the ferry and met him at his work. It is hard…
Mommy Appreciated (And how the Hubs redeemed himself)
Today was a nice day. The best part of my day? The Hubs gave me flowers. (In ridiculously close second place: I got a nap!) Now that I am a Mom, it is really easy to feel unappreciated (not that I need to feel appreciated… it is just nice, you know?). I mean, I hang…
Fail Day (aka Why does no one listen to Mommy?)
We have half a desk. Half a desk to hold our computer, two monitors, film scanner, printer, and all the other computer paraphernalia that we have. Sure, we used to have a full desk, but it collapsed on us a year ago. So now, we have half a desk. We know that we need to…
Mommy’s Expectations and Realities
**Reader Discretion is Advised: I know this is going to be a long blog post, but I believe that it is important for me to write it. And, if you are faithful to the end you will find baby pictures!** There’s been a lot of talk on the Mom-Blogosphere lately about how expectations don’t necessarily…
Mommy Jeans
I know that new Moms everywhere have opinions on what women should wear post-pregnancy. Many feel that they are totally done with maternity clothes and are even offended that other women would consider wearing them too (Picture courtesy of The Bump Post Secret). Other women continue to wear their maternity clothes because honestly, there is…
Mommy’s Opinion
I may be late to the party on this one, but I had to have my say. Do you remember Rabbi Shmuley Boteach? He’s the guy from TLC’s Shalom in the Home. Although I have never seen that show before, I have seen him on Dr. Phil in the past, and I have usually agreed…
Mommy’s Friday Confession
Yesterday was a rough day for me at home. Every once in a while I start to feel like my every waking moment (and many not-quite-awake moments) are consumed with taking care of Cameron. Let me be clear, I love being a Mom and I love being with my precious little boy. But, I’m not…
Mommy Brain
Can you believe how long it took me to realize that yesterday wasn’t Thursday?! Yesterday’s blog post was the first in a weekly update called “Thinner Thursday”. Obviously, I intend for these to be posted on Thursday. And believe me – I thought I was following through on my plan. When I woke up yesterday…
