Finding humor in the art of parenting
I'm not going to lie, lately I've been on a little bit of an online shopping bender. I don't know if it's the time of year or the severe lack of sleep I'm getting, but I've been clicking to my little heart's delight. And a couple weeks ago I decided it was time for another [...]
I feel like I have a million things going on at all times, and this blog has taken a little bit of a back seat, which frustrates me. But I've been working on some things behind the scenes that are working toward some professional goals of mine, which is exciting. It's just been another thing [...]
If you have followed me for a while, you know that I'm currently breastfeeding my almost five month old. You can read my recent posts about it here and here. TL;DR: After dealing with oversupply when my milk came in, my current concern is keeping up my supply after returning to work and pumping. I would [...]

I'm still coming off the hell that was last week with both kids sick. And I'm missing coffee more than ever. The three year old finally returned to sleeping through the night in his bed without waking up screeching multiple times a night. The baby is making progress. He's still congested and coughs at night, [...]
It's been the longest week ever. And it's only Tuesday. WTF. I seem to be in a cycle of one thing after another lately. When it rains, it pours, right? It all started over a week ago when the baby caught a cold, which hit a crescendo over the weekend with what I'm pretty sure [...]
Like a lot of other bloggers, I'm trying to expand my reach. This blog started out as a personal outlet for me to share my thoughts and experiences as a mother and it has been a blessing for my sanity. But a long-term goal of mine professionally is to become a freelance writer. So I've [...]
