My vision… Somewhere in the recessive depths of my totally non-DIY mind, I decided it would be a good idea to make cake pops this year for my son’s birthday party (curses, curses, curses on Pinterest). I could give you a detailed blow-by-blow, but I will try to keep this relatively short and simple. That […]
The Big Dogs
I’ll confess, I pulled out The Big Dogs a couple days ago. Hey, give this Mom of the Year a break. It had been a long, long day of fun at Longwood Gardens and we were totally rockin’ the day napless (never a wise choice with a baby and a toddler). I managed to get […]
Vtech Switch & Go Dinos: Christmas Came Early This Year
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of VTechKids for SocialSpark. I received the two dino cars for free in addition to monetary compensation. All opinions are 100% mine. When I was asked to review the Switch & Go Dinos, I was especially stoked. Not only would my son snag a […]
Interview with Lisa McKay
Yesterday, Lisa McKay was so kind to guest post for me and today we get to chat with her more about her life and her fantastic new memior, Love at the Speed of Email, out this month. I almost feel bad for the Amazon.com employees b/c they are going to be so slammed trying to process a […]
Guest Blogger: Lisa McKay

I am continually awed and impressed with Lisa’s wit and wisdom. She currently lives in Laos where her husband serves as a humanitarian worker. She has an extensive career in psychology and […]
Throwing it Down with Spanx: The Monday Review
The original Spanx–not much has improved… Spanx. Spanx. SPANX. Oh, my mixed feelings about this supposedly-genius product for women…I think I’m probably the only woman in America who is not totally in love, so I’m pretty sure something is wrong with me. In theory, they are fantastic: they suck you in, make you look skinny, […]
Focus on the Truth
“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.”–Phillippians 4:8 As a natural worrier, it is so easy for me to get fussed up about things that aren’t true and that will likely never come to […]
Mini Golfing with a Baby
“I’ll feed myself, thank you very much.” No, we’re definitely not yet cool enough to rock out several fun rounds of mini-golf as a family, but we sort of have our own version of the game going on here. You know the holes with those windmills spinning around in front of the hole? When you […]
Horror Show at Home
“Adorable”–now think of all this stuff mixed inwith dried peas, skanky cheerios, and loads of random “other”and you’re got the picture of thescary world under the plastic seat of our high chair… In the mood to see a movie? Don’t have the money, time, and/or a sitter? If you have young kids in your home and can handle a horror flick, […]
Adult Conversation
How I envision any important messages will need to be conveyed in our homefor the foreseeable future In short, adult conversation doesn’t exist when you have young kids in the home. One morning recently my husband started telling me a story (obviously about our kids, b/c what else would we talk about?) Husband: “So Isaac started […]
