Sunday morning my husband rolled over and whispered some sweet, sweet nothings in my ear, “I just want to sit calmly with you over a cup of coffee.” I swooned at his amorous words, “Me too.” We then looked at each other, got up and wordlessly split duty, each wrangling one fussy child into their church clothes. Over […]
Mrs. McKinley and the Teachers YOU Love
Let’s be honest–there’s not a whole lot going for you in 8th grade. There’s the cute boy you’re crushing on, sure, but extensive orthodontia, zit-pocked faces and the very confusing matter of Your Period can often prevent you from making any real headway with the hottie in algebra. It’s rough, and forget your parents, AKA […]
Motherhood’s Snot Easy
Friends, we all know that acknowledging the “not easy” part of being a Mom of the Year is what we’re all about around here. Good times. The “snot” easy? That’s a special celebration for today–go love on Boogie Wipes and score an iPad Mini! But it sure is rewarding! We know being a mom is hard […]
With H-E-B, the Cowgirl Rides Again
I’ll admit it. Before having my own daughter, I judged on other parents who let their kids run around in tutus and dresses. This wouldn’t be my daughter. No, not ever. Then I had a daughter. And she discovered dress-up. And now holy hell breaks out lest the gal isn’t sporting a fancy frilly garment […]
Throw a Birthday Party like a Boss
Birthday season in The Mom of the Year household is upon us, friends. Our entire family, immediate and extended, without exception, was born between the very end of May and October 1. What does this mean for you? A lot of upcoming scary Facebook pictures of Mommy looking like a psychotic mess and undue excessive whining […]
Springing Up May BOGO Ad Space Special
So while the 1500-some monsoons of the past month have been adorable (unloading groceries with two toddlers in a downpour must be among the most effective birth control out there, no??), I’m ready to boot April to the curb. Celebrate with me and let’s welcome in May with some freshness and growth–growth on your site that is! I’m loving […]
I Love/Hate Technology. Or I Don’t.
I’m all for technology; it’s super. That’s a lie. It’s a love/hate thing. Or maybe sometimes completely a hate thing. Or always a hate thing. You see, I spent a morning last week trying to modify and personalize a Google+ status update. The downside? I had to read 14 relevant articles and didn’t get the dishes […]
Someone’s Got to Do Something about the Laundry
It’s a weird place. I’ve got kids, but I’ll be honest, I’m not sure I’m sure excited about all the ins and outs of them right now. OF COURSE I love my children and am always grateful for them, but let’s be honest, I could happily table the Pull-ups forever and die a happy woman. A […]
Product Junkie
I’ll admit it. I’m a product junkie and a proud product junkie. Bring on the drugstore because I’m on a mission. Actually, bring on my my link-through Ebates to whatever store has the best deal. Coupled with free shipping codes from RetailMeNot, you know I’m not trying to actually leave my house. Since money is always on […]
Fishing Poles and the Cute Dresses
Easter was a very loooong day in these parts. A day that started well before the sun rose and quickly frenzied its way into frenetically strewn Easter grass, multiple egg hunts, and at least one toddler crawling on my head during the church service. Topping off a week with a very sick husband, Mommy had […]
