“I understand that you are not maliciously trying to ruin my life with sippy cups.” This is one of my all-time favorite personal quotes, as I referenced before. I said this to my husband one day when the sippy cup scene in our home was just a little too intense. If you’re not a parent […]
What is a Blog?

Merriam-Webster.com defines a blog as: a Web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments, and often hyperlinks provided by the writer If you are part of the blogging community, as a blogger or […]
The Automatic Trashcan
Just when you think life couldn’t get any more exciting, we went and got a new trashcan. I know, I know…try to calm yourself. And this thing is really Something Else–we’re talking full-on automatic. As in, when I step in front of this thing and wave my hand, the lid pops open. I throw my garbage […]
A Camping We Will Go…
My husband and I thought we were rockstars because we had taken our son camping shortly after he turned 1, and it went beautifully. It was truly fun, and we had a great weekend (granted, this may have had something to do with him breaking out in mysterious hives and the pediatrician telling us to […]
The Summer It List
In the highly-researched opinion of this Mom of the Year (read: inordinate amount of Us Weekly and Star magazines devoured page-by-page), this is the current Summer It List. Chime in with your additions, my friends! 1. Betty White. Seriously, what is the deal?! How do you peak at 90? This reeks very suspiciously of being […]

Longwood Gardens: The Monday Review
Longwood Gardens has to be one of the most perfect places in this world. All the credit in the world to my friend E for convincing me this would be a fun place to visit with kids almost a year ago–she was so right and I will be forever grateful to her introduction to this […]

If you don’t have access to a little one, but still want to join in the fun, here is […]
Bring on the Hospital
Check out the bliss on her face…definitely a mom of multiple children. What is a Mom of the Year to do when her toddler is totally driving her batty? (read: YOUR TODDLER IS WINNING). You’ll find loads of helpful suggestions online, most of them on Pinterest in the form of “100 Fun Summer Activities for […]
Guest Posting on Pretty Providence: Budgeting on a Budget
Dying to know the inner workings of my family’s finances? When Jessica and Sarah welcomed me as a guest blogger on their site, Pretty Providence, to share my thoughts about budgeting, I was pretty stoked! Since I feel like I dedicate, oh about 99.9% of my life “watching our finances”, this was right up my […]
