Early Pregnancy Nostalgia

As we are closing in on a year with our little guy, I am left dreaming of those moments when I carried Sully with me everywhere. It’s interesting to me how quickly one forgets the inability to breathe, the potential of snissing oneself due to pressure on the bladder (if you’ve ever been pregnant, you [...]

Back to the gym.

Yesterday I sucked up the $50.00 a month price (yes, our gym is awesome for military prices), brought Sully in, introduced him to the babies and sitters, and got my butt back at the gym. I’d been trying to convince myself for the last ten months that I could work out at home just fine, [...]

Banana Bottoms Fitted Diaper Review and Giveaway!

Again, I have to stress how excited I am to present another work-at-home mom company to you. The wonderful thing about this WAHM series is that I am finding that many of their products are much better than mass-produced items. The customer service is better. The quality is better. The prints are diapers are more [...]

I believe

…in little boy, stinky feet and kissing them whenever possible. …that while being a stay-at-home mom is probably one of the most rewarding jobs in this entire world, it can also be one of the loneliest. …I will make friends here. Starting tomorrow at my mommy “Meet-Up” group. I will no longer depend on my [...]

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

This is so not funny. In fact, thinking of it makes me gag. Similac just recalled about a billion (I may or may not be exaggerating) packages of their formula because….oh, this is so gross…there was a possibility of ground beetles and beetle larvae in it. Ohmygosh vom. Poor Sully has been eating Beetlejuice. I’ve [...]

I’m watching Jersey Shore tonight.

Go ahead, laugh. Y’all I looooove the Jersey Shore. The guido (is that how you spell it?) talk. The gelled hair. The “jaegah bombs and new haah cuts”. The super fake tans, super big hair, and super drunk chicks. It’s such an anomaly for me. It’s freakin’ hilarious. I watch in awe every single week. [...]

Sleep Scentsations Review and Giveaway!

We all know that sleep is incredibly important. All you have to do is try to survive on three hours of sleep after having a new baby for, oh, six months in the row to know how it can change your body and mind. Sleep is your body’s way of recovering from your daily activities, [...]

Our busy days.

I am constantly amazed at this little person my son is quickly becoming. Everyone told me it would get hard as he became mobile. In a way, they were right. I chase him around all day. He’s particularly drawn to things he shouldn’t play with, like my computer, my make-up, or cords and outlets. But [...]

Nana’s Bottoms Review and Giveaway!

Her line includes AIOs, covers, fitteds, and even doll diapers. She creates high quality, budget friendly diapers. It’s such a rarity to [...]
