When does parent-speak first develop? In utero? After birth? Upon initial notions of conception? I’m not sure, but I know there is a whole boatload of ridiculous things I say on a daily basis that largely make no sense.

Life Post-Hip Spica Cast: A Very Cool View of the World
Why is this picture so cool? (aside from the fact that it’s the pic of child looking at the world upside down, which is a pretty neat perspective if you think about it 😉 ). Because my son is bent in half! Might not seem like a big deal, but considering 9 months ago, this […]
Nailing It
My nails looked this good forapproximately 1.5 seconds post-manicure Pass me the massage-y pedicure chair any day, but polish on my fingernails just isn’t worth it. I am not one for manicures, as they usually chip within a matter of seconds of me leaving the nail salon. Then I heard about these gel manicures (I know, I’m […]
The Anatomy of a Morning
SourceIt does, oh it does, Hillary…but where is mine? It may be overwhelming to recap the entire a.m hours for those of you not currently rocking out the world of young kids, so let’s just start with the first 1 hr. and 36 minutes of my day. Crack of dawn: Lying in bed, baby crying. […]
The Entourage
I’m not entirely sure when my son first became cool enough to merit his own entourage, but he clearly has one. It may have started with the single stuffed 6″ Mickey Mouse that my sister gifted him with after a trip to Disney World. As you can tell, his group of friends has grown, multiplied […]
The Magazines of Our Mothers: The Monday Review
Source Okay, so when did the magazines my mother used to read become cool? Did Ladies’ Home Journal and Redbook suddenly totally rework themselves or am I the one who changed? After focusing on parenting magazines last week, this week I’m looking at magazines for the ladies. When my dear friend R gifted me with […]
Kids’ Birthday Parties
Source If you have haven’t gathered this by now, I’m not a huge fan of kid birthday parties. I am hosting a big one later today for my daughter. In general, I eschew the modern day trend of hosting a travelling petting zoo/hiring a dancing princess clown/renting out Disney World for the day. But my […]
Hangin’ Poolside
At some point in the early summer, my son developed an irrational ginormous fear of any body of water. Not talking lakes, rivers, or even a big pool here. Instead, think baby pool or bathtub. This obviously wasn’t going to fly; this Mom of the Year simply doesn’t have enough energy at the end of […]
Happy Birthday, Baby
Elyse, you are gorgeous. You are sweet. You are funny. You are my precious, little 1 yr. old baby girl. And NO ONE can rock that hat like you do. Happy birthday, baby 😉
Dressing the Kids
Saw this on GraphJam.com, and decided my children are the ideal Walmart patrons thanks to my husband’s dressing “efforts”… Okay, I’m not a fashion diva by any stretch and am not a fan of dressing my kids up like dolls, but I do have some general standards. As in, the clothing doesn’t necessarily have to […]
