Little Boy Brandon and mommy went to her work today. It was nice to have some adult conversation about work gossip and something other than Brandon's sleep schedule (although that was discussed, too, as expected of any new parent).When we got home, we did some tummy time on the Boppy. Sure, it wasn't floor level,... Continue Reading →
I used to wonder why stay-at-home moms would hire nannies. After yesterday, I understand. It's so they can take showers and make the bed and do the laundry. It's so they can get a coffee when their heads are pounding and check their email and work out.Every day I want to at least make the... Continue Reading →
Our little man about town. We dressed him in in actual shirt and pants four days last week since we left the house with him that many times. At home he just wears sleep n' plays for easier diaper changing. He does a whole lot of scowling, but I think it's cute. He sleeps with... Continue Reading →
My poor neglected dog. Nearly six years now he has been our baby. He sleeps with us at night, we walk him every day. He gets a bone every Thursday. I buy him new toys frequently from Target. He cuddles with us on the couch while we watch tv each night. He is one of... Continue Reading →
Today I got my first post-baby body check out. Granted, it was by a chubby cook at Smashburger. He had a pleasant face, but certainly wasn't my ideal ogler. It would have been better for my self-esteem had a dimpled frat boy with muscular arms eyeballed me. But I guess any elevator eyes are better... Continue Reading →

You would think staying at home all day would give me plenty of time to finish all sorts of projects, read books, write novels, get my pre-baby body back (well, hopefully better, I was plumping out before pregnancy). At least, that's what I thought before he arrived.But somehow by the... Continue Reading →
Why couldn't I have saved that stamina I had in college for now? I think of all the nights when we'd be out until 4 or 5 am, then I'd wake up to be at my morning class, go to work, then do it all again. I didn't need much sleep to function and I... Continue Reading →
Grandma is here!Aunt Amber snapped some pictures during sponge bath time.Brandon's umbilical cord stump fell off today, so once his circumcision scar has healed, he will be taking real baths.
At 3am, thunder rolled, lightening flashed, wind whipped branches to and fro. And I sat in his nursery, looking out his window, rocking Brandon to sleep. I thought of how I was here, keeping him safe.I remember a set of nesting dolls my mom had that she would pull out of the attic every year... Continue Reading →

Pictures turned out pretty great, if you ask me. Thanks Donna, for spending your Easter weekend taking pictures of our... Continue Reading →
