This girl here? Yeah this one. The one whose blog you’re reading. This girl does not feel up to blogging right now. This girl? She’s kind of bummed out. It might be because she’s feels rather uninspired about the post she’s about to write. Maybe it is that she knows she is overdue for a post. Maybe…
Marriage
101 in 1001
This is my 101st blog post. That’s pretty incredible. I started this blog in the second trimester of pregnancy. I wanted to write about my experience with pregnancy and keep people updated on my life. I didn’t get into the swing of blogging until Cameron was a couple of months old, but since then, I’ve…
(Not) Suzie Homemaker
Some days I just feel like a failure. Even though the baby is fed and rested, the house is a disaster, dishes are dirty, fruit flies are a buzzin’ and the only food I’ve made consists of pouring cereal from the box to the bowl. I am not Suzie Homemaker. If you think I am? You’ll…
Walk Together
Well, wedding week is officially over. It finished with a bang in the best ways. Todays wedding was beautiful and joyful and emotional. I am now excited to announce that I have a new brother, and I could not be more pleased about it. I didn’t mean to leave the blog high and dry for…
Something for Sunday: Made for Glory
*Like other semi-regular weekly posts, I am going to try to write a faith-related post on Sundays. I recognize and understand that not everyone who might read this has the same faith beliefs that I do. Please read, if you want, because this is part of who I am, part of the mother that I…
Mommy and Daddy’s Great Sleep Debate
So, Cameron moved to his crib last Monday night. Kinda. I guess I should start at the beginning, because honesty? This one simple change of beds wasn’t so simple. When Cameron came home from the hospital, he spent all of his nights in the cradle that I spent my first nights in. We have a…
Sick Babies
(Please take note: While inside this post, all italics are meant to be read with an English accent. Make sure you watch the video to understand why.) Our house is full of sick men right now. Have you ever seen a sick man before? It is pretty much exactly like this: Yup, my husband has…
Refreshed
I find it very hard to leave my baby. Okay, sure, I’ll leave him home with my husband for half an hour while I go to the drug store, but anything more than that and I have a very hard time. Here’s the thing though – You might have heard me mentioning that in order…
Dear Dan: A Love Letter to my Husband on our Second Anniversary
I love you. Two years ago today, on a beautiful sunny day in July, I promised to spend the rest of my life with you. I promised to love you during good times and bad, when we’re struggling and when we’re flourishing, when you’re at your worst and when you’re at your best. I promised…
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…
