I'm loving Mommyhood the third time around. I mean, what's not to love about this face?! I'm so happy to be happy about having a baby again! I was so stressed out after having Patrick and then Jolene just a short 13 months later. I lived in a haze for two years. I love, love, love Patrick and Jolene. I always have and always will. I didn't love every part of those two years. I ...

       Mommyhood has gotten the best of me.  Never feeling like I've had enough sleep, stress, body aches, crying and all over fatigue is what I feel each morning and it all hits me again at 3 pm.  I got focused this week on trying to feel GOOD, to calm myself, to take things easy and treat my body and mind right.  Although I've started counting ...

So here I am the mom of a newborn again. Wow, who knew that you could forget the details of caring for a newborn so quickly. I mean, come on, Max is only a little over 2! After I found out I was pregnant with Will, I had some pretty big decisions to make about the direction of my focus. It just so happened that I was reading The Mission Of Motherhood by Sally Clarkson around that time, and I ...

Today has not been one of the best days of my mommyhood life. But it hasn't been the worst either. I'm sick. Like sick sick. I think I'm still running a fever, my head is so congested I feel like it's just full of cotton and I'm coughing nonstop. Also, I'm exhausted. I barely got any sleep the night before last, like maybe a total of 4 hours and last night I MAYBE got two ...

Gisele Bundchen was spotted leaving photo studio in Los Angeles with son Benjamin Brady on Thursday afternoon (March 18) classically accessorized with jewelry and clad in a baby spittle stained t-shirt. While there is no question the Brazilian beauty looks great so soon after her birth, a noticeable rash on her neck reveals the hormonal and stress-related changes for the new mom. Is Gisele ...

... little boys and their heads FULL of hair, I realized that I must have slept really wrong the night before because my back....OH MY BACK! Chalking it up to nothing more than the regular aches and pains of mommyhood, I continued in my pursuit of bedtime. When I woke Saturday, I noticed that what looked like a bug bite had risen on my lower back and was particularly itchy. I was tired, but nothing ...

... on relationships. I love my friends but people make me tired. Really tired. Mike is one of the few people that I can be with and not feel totally exhausted after a few hours. And I've used that and mommyhood as an excuse for a long time. And it is partly true. But the sad news that I've been squaring off with lately is that I have a nasty streak of pride that makes me want to keep ...

... not to. Also, you can see that this blog as a new meaning. It was supposed to be only for my wedding planning updates, but I realized that after the wedding, I would want to blog about married life, and hopefully mommyhood. I then realized that I didn't need two personal blogs about my daily life, so I just merged them. So, welcome to the new site! And please follow me here. Thank you!

... race and think that I will bounce back the next day. That worked in my 20s, but those years are far behind me now. I really need to get back into a regular exercise routine and stop using mommyhood as the excuse that keeps me from taking care of my body. Maybe I'll join the Curves that is across the street. Maybe I'll get up at 5:30 to join the spinning class (maybe not). Whatever it is, ...

... leg up to mark his territory....all over my damn house...on my damn rug....on my damn furniture. I said to myself oh hell no! I took his ass to a doggy boarding facility and boarded him for the entire weekend. I don't want a puppy right now. Who am I kidding...EVER!! If I ever feel that ping of dog mommyhood calling I'll just go to Just Puppies and play with one of their puppies.
