…for the low-low price of a shout-out! Here’s how this one is working: I have five AMAZING Mom of the Year calendar magnets that I am giving away (I know, I know, maybe you should take a minute to lie down b/c this is so exciting). To be entered into this very random giveaway drawing […]
Pre-school Sign-up
Don’t laugh. This is serious, serious business for the SAHM. Here is my dilemna: I am in love with the Bible study we attend on Thurs. mornings. I feel that my son is too young to attend preschool 3 days/week in addition to his nursery class at said Bible study. Ergo, pursuing the rare 2 […]
California Dreamin’
My husband and I escaped last week (I know, be jealous, and yes, I am most-assuredly bragging). I am a ginormous fan of the business trip, esp. when it lands us in gorgeous San Diego child- and dog-free and I have absolutely no responsibilities other than being a Lady of Leisure. Obviously, it was wonderful–got to […]
The Pediatrician’s Office
So we went. My daughter was 6 mo., and I’m not cool enough to skip vaccines, so we were there. At this point, what goes down during our visits no longer shocks me, it’s more that the child abuse authorities actually weren’t tipped off and weren’t waiting for us at the door upon our arrival. […]
Golden Globes Recap
Have to admit I’m somewhat shocked that the glitterazzi have not been plaguing me with requests for my take on the fashion hits and misses of the Golden Globes. Obviously, the opinion of this SAHM rockin’ her sweats all hours of the day and night should carry significant weight. Assuming a drastic oversight and that […]
Every Move I Make…
…counts, plain and simple. I am learning that the skill set required to perform the daily tasks of a SAHM should require a degree. The precision involved must easily surpass that of the most intricate military operations. As in, “Okay, son secured at table in booster seat with a mini-orange (don’t ask…). Daughter still safely […]
Sophie the Giraffe
She’s ubiquitous. If you are a parent of young children, you probably own her. With my son, I coolly and fashionably held out, feeling rather non-conformist and above-the trend. Apparently, this one plastic animal and this one plastic animal alone, is able to allow your child’s teeth to develop at a normal rate. Thus, if you are […]
I Can’t Hear You!
I’m the first to admit that I’m near deaf. As soon as our budget can swing it, I’m so there with hearing aids. (This further lends to the fact that I am actually 105). In any case, it generally drives my husband nuts that I can hear nothing he says and that we have to […]
When Toys Don’t Shut Off…
The first time this happened, my son was about 8 mo. old and I had put him down for the night. My husband had gone wild and fled the house for the night to run errands, or some such elaborate affair. I was snuggled up in bed, happily reading my latest library book away when […]
The Proverbial Spot
What is the wet spot on Mommy’s clothing??? The not-remote possibilities include, but are not limited to: pee, runny poop, spit-up, vomit, formula, water, dirty water from the recycle bin, generic Zantac syrup, coffee, wine, diet coke, pureed sweet potatoes (or any fruit/veggie variation thereof [again including but not limited to], such as plums, peaches, […]
