You all know what I’m talking about. We live for it. We long for it. We cherish that precious slice of time at night after the kiddos are safely stashed in their beds and a pass has been made at pretending to create some sense order in the house before Mr. Sandman visits. It is […]
We went to a toy store…
…and it was AWESOME. If you need to sit down for a minute, that’s cool. I can’t believe I’m saying this either. When I was invited to preview the new Monkey Fish Toys store, I was pretty scared. Lots of bright colors, noises, and children generally terrify me. But then that whole little realization that […]
Training Time for the Egg Hunt!
God bless my brother-in-law. He has a very cool job and got us into a very cool egg hunt this weekend. Think “Event of the Century” and boatloads of candy that will NOT win me any Mom of the Year awards with all the anti-sugar purists out there. The thing is, it’s just fun. The […]
Moms of the Year: In It Together
Kathy over at kissing the frog manages to bring more heart and beauty to her writing than I knew was possible. Each one of her posts leaves me chuckling a little, tearing up a little (or a lot sometimes–keep those kleenex handy!), and thinking, “Praise God! Someone else gets this! I’m not alone!”. She […]
Bonus Time!
Forget St. Pat’s or Easter, the cherished Spring holiday of Clinique Bonus time has arrived! I think there are two sides to the fence on this one. Either you know exactly what I’m talking about and if you haven’t already scored your free make-up bag full of goodies, you have already logged off and hightailed […]
The Drowning Stage
This post is hard for me to write. No shortage of words, but I don’t want to convey the wrong message. When collaborating with the lovely Ellen of Sisterhood of the Sensible Moms, I said that I had to be careful not to make this totally depressing or everyone “would want to go flush their […]
Proof That I Am One Bad Mamma Jamma, AKA: Mom of the Year
Have you all fallen in love yet with Stephanie from When Crazy Meets Exhaustion? She is one groovy chick. She is wickedly smart, full of funny stories and always delivers on nailing the truth. She wows me by being a WAHM (work at home mom) and literally doing it all. I am in awe of her. […]
Win your very own copy of “I Just Want to Pee Alone”!
Woo hoo, its Monday! Not feeling it? No, I’m not either, but I do have a little blast of good news to shoot your way and kick this week off on the right foot. I’m teaming up with my beloved Dani from Cloudy, With a Chance of Wine to give away 10 copies of the […]
I Just Want to Pee Alone and I’m not going to shut up about it
I’m in book. I’M ACTUALLY IN A BOOK, and basically my poor husband will hear about nothing else for the foreseeable future. In general, the gist of our conversations: Husband: “Can you pass the salt?” Me: “You seriously are going to talk to me without even congratulating me on the book?” Or, if I’m feeling […]
Moo Cow of the Year
Join me this morning in wishing a very happy birthday to Deb, the blogging savvy behind Urban Moo Cow! I’m honored she is willing to celebrate her special day here by taking part in the Mom of the Year series. Her writing is an honest, intelligent look at the world surrounding us as parents. Her love for her […]
