Not having a functioning digital camera seriously slows down the whole picture posting process! Why our camera is not working is just way to crazy and difficult to explain. It has something to do with one of these, a Sony camera, my husband, and the words “Look! I’m the camera eating amoeba!”.
Last week was [...]
What’s worse than being awakened by the need to fling yourself over the toilet and wretch non existants?
Realizing that you have 20 minutes to shower, dress, wake the kids, dress the kids, feed the kids and drive 15 minutes to your OB apt.
What’s worse than that?
Showering, putting on make up, dressing, sweetly waking the kids, [...]
The kids have been sick for two weeks now. The combination of fussy kids exploding with snot and a mommy sans coffee for 3 days has left me house bound. Well, I did manage to get a fantastic sunburn yesterday doing yard work, but other than that I’ve been home a lot.
What’s the biggest change [...]

I’ve been so pumped for like a week to find out at our first ultra sound today whether we’re having a girl or boy.

I went back to work today. It really wasn’t that bad. I missed the kids like crazy, and almost got in two wrecks racing to see their faces after work, but other than that, it was pretty uneventful.
I think we were all ready for it this time. Well, maybe not Dustin. He’s [...]

I’ve got the itch.
I miss my nursing career. I miss the satisfaction of being given the most cantankerous patient and then methodically caring for them until they finally trust me and a smile breaks through. I miss assessing a patient, realizing they are on three different types of hypertension meds, weak, dizzy, disoriented, [...]

A couple birthdays ago, Dustin gave me a subscription to Parents magazine. Although I read their advice with one rolling eye, I do love me some funny kid stories. As soon as I get the magazine, I flip to the back for the article where moms send in their funny stories.
The other day [...]
