I finally did it. I wore a two piece to swim lessons today. I thought I would feel self-conscious. When that didn’t come, I thought I would feel invincible. I guess I did a little bit, but what I really felt was something I hadn’t felt about my body for a long time– comfort. […]

How a Working Mom Schedules Her Life and Pretends to Be Organized
It’s true– I work a lot. Probably too much. It’s hard when you love both your job and your family. Because I spend so much of my time away from home, or studying, or blogging, it’s important to keep a pretty organized schedule.
Thank You For Being A Firecracker
You are a steam engine, running around tirelessly from the moment you awaken at 6:30 am to your midday too-short nap to your evening slumber. You beg us to go outside, rain or shine, even though you’ve already been three times that day, shouting “Ousside ousside ousside ousside” as you bang on the door. I […]
I See You, Mom in Airport
I have a vivacious 17 month old daughter. Her energy, enthusiasm, and endurance make her this incredible force to be reckoned with. She is observant and tenacious. While these traits make her the closest toddler I know to Wonder Woman, they are not mirrored by her exhausted parents. Thus, comes The Tale of Wonder Toddler […]

I have to tell you, Little Land Play Gym Buda is an outstanding place for kids of all ages. Not only that, […]
Why The F*** Won’t You Say Mama
Oh, hello daughter of mine. Yes, I did say that. Hello, daughter of mine. Remember that? That time I spent 50 hours in labor with you? That time I spent ten months pregnant with you? Sacrificing my body, hair, feet, and face for you? Yes, face. What do you think hormones do? I’m so proud […]
Why My Husband is Great–And Why Yours Should Be, Too
Hello, Ladies and Gents. Look at this handsome man: That’s my husband. I know what you’re thinking– who is that good looking woman next to him? Just kidding. I know everyone’s thinking how amazingly attractive he is. Not to rub it in, but he’s an even more amazing father and husband. You see, my husband […]
Things Not To Say To A Mom
I was having a long, wonderful conversation with my friend, writer of Raw Uncensored Mom , (someone you should totally follow, by the way) about the ridiculously crazy things people think it’s okay to say to a mom. Let’s discuss: 1. When’s number two (or three, or whatever number you’re on) going to be here? Stop. Asking. […]
