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…
Thinner Thursday
There is something absolutely beautiful about a pregnant body. I loved being pregnant. I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life, even when I was about as big as a house. This was taken less than a month before Cameron was born. Terrible picture of me, but it gives a general idea about…
Mommy’s Boy
Cameron and I are finally home after visiting family for three weeks (Hubs came home a week earlier while the bubby and I spent the last week at my parent’s house in NB). It was a nice trip, but I learned a few things about travelling with a baby: specifically that babies do NOT like…
Mommy Cut
Last time I got my hair cut was August ’09. AUGUST! I had found out in June that I was pregnant and by August I was just about to be interviewed for a new job. Unfortunately, I had long blond hair with ridiculous brown roots that only appeared even reasonably presentable in a ponytail. Now…
Mommy’s Day
It has been almost a full week since Mother’s Day, and although I have meant to blog about it, there has been no blog. I’ve been in Toronto living in a cave for a week, so I have an excuse. (Seriously! Who doesn’t have Internet in their house?). My first Mother’s Day wasn’t how I…
Mommy Must-Haves
I am currently in Toronto with very limited access to the internet. I’ll try to get a blog post up soon, but here is the first post of my “Mommy Must-Haves”, a review of some of the items that have been so useful to me during my short time as a Mom. On Saturday, Cameron…
Mommy Heartbreak
So today was a rough day for us (and I won’t even mention the parking ticket I got). This morning, Cam-the-man and I got up and left the house on our way to go to the doctor’s office. You see, on Thursday, Cameron will be two months old. That means that Cameron needed his first…
The Cutest Thing Ever
I might have mentioned it before, but I LOVE being a Mom. I always knew that I would love to have a baby, but I never imagined it being this great. Sure, there have been some frustrating moments, but my little boy has recently figured out how to show me that it’s all worth it:…
Tweet Little Baby
Well, I’ve been a mom now for 6 weeks and 5 days. I am the happiest I have been in years because I am so in love with my little guy. I love being a mom. That being said, it is really hard to find time to myself so this blog has been neglected. I’m…
Beautiful Belly
Oh slightly less pregnant Laura – why didn’t you bite your tongue? Instead, now you’re chomping on foot. And trust me, that’s not easy while being 39 weeks pregnant. Does anyone remember when I was so proud of myself for not having stretch marks? I was so sure that I was going to avoid this…
On being married to a Dad
I’ve always known I’ve never been good with stairs. I trip going up them and I trip going down them. Guess what? Believe it or not, this gets worse with a big pregnant belly making it difficult to see my feet. Last night, I was reminded to watch out for stairs, once more. I spent…
