I chickened out.

No jean shopping today. I was wearing a new shirt, jeans that actually looked cute, and I fixed my hair. I didn’t want to kill the self-esteem again. Instead, I bought a http://www.fuzzibunz.com/ diaper (anyone know if these are any good?). I know it’ll fit him, less trauma for me. *Sigh* I’ll try again tomorrow. [...]

PS…

We’re #211 on TopMommyBlogs. Y’all rock. That’s, like, 50 spots in a day. Thank you!

Shopping is not always good for the soul.

It’s no wonder that moms often let themselves go. They stop dressing up. They stop fixing their hair. Make-up is no longer a necessity. It never fails that the moment you fix your hair, the little one pukes into to. The minute you put on make-up, you find it all smeared off from a baby [...]

Cloth Diapers-Yes, I'm going there.

I’m SO not a crunchy mommy…or so I thought until I actually had a baby. Now, I’m starting to see some benefits to things like homemade baby food and slings that I never saw before. Cloth diapering was something I was interested in before having Sullivan, but my husband was convinced they were nasty (“All [...]

Day Three: I don't want to talk about it.

Things are going ok. Naps are still a major struggle, but I think it’s going to get better before long. Sullivan is so much happier and well-rested now. If I ever questioned that I was doing the right thing before, I realize that I am after seeing how rested he is when he wakes up. [...]

Night Two of Sleep Training-AKA, Mommy Torture

Disclaimer: I realize that not all moms are OK with sleep training their children. I know all about the “attachment parenting” trends, and I’ve read that some experts think sleep training will make a baby feel vulnerable and insecure. I don’t believe that. I hold my child most of the day, wear a sling when [...]

Sleeping Training: Night One Complete

Sleep training. One of the most controversial topics on the internet for mommies. There are probably 500 books written on the subject. Each book gives different advice. It’s so overwhelming that just reading about it can you want to give it all up before you even start. Well, last night we finally started. Yeah, I [...]

Jillian Michaels Ain’t Got Nothing On P90X

I’m back from the dead after a hangover from hell. Sorry for the hiatus, but this girl can’t blog when the words are swimming in front of her eyes. So, thought I’d give a little review about my P90X experience as of today. I started out with Jillian Michaels’ 30 Day Shred about three weeks [...]

So this is why I don't miss college.

Last night, I had three glasses of wine. More wine than I’ve had in almost a year. This morning, I woke up with the worst headache ever. Ever. Sorry, no productive post today. I’m off to lick my wounds.
