Looks like we didn’t win the Mega Millions jackpot, after all. But, weekends in Spring can be a great time to find some steals at yard sales in your area! Think of all those people in the midst of cleaning out… I almost drove past this yard sale, but something caught the corner of my [...]

First down, 40 to goal!
I have no idea why I just tried to make that sound all football like. The only things I know about football came from watching Friday Night Lights on Netflix. Good show, FYI. Any-who… Guess who has two thumbs and lost her first 20 pounds since January… THIS GIRL! Once we get closer to the [...]
Baby-Led Weaning and skipping mush
I am an admittedly picky eater. I was stubborn at a young age to the frustration of my family. But, here I am, about to introduce my little one into the world of solid food. Hold on to your pants! Like I mentioned in an earlier post, the pediatrician gave us the green light for [...]
Pin ItIf I had a million dollars…
My husband told me last night that he and 16 people at the office started an office pool for the lottery drawing tomorrow. Apparently, it’s up to 500 million clams! Seems worth the two bucks, right? So, that got me to thinking… What would I want to do if we win? I joked with my [...]
Swing Shenanigans
After a walk through the woods, a few of us hit up the adjacent park to try out the swings. I have not seen Ellie smile so long with anything else so far. She was a little small for the seat so I stuffed her in with a towel from my car. I can see [...]
Just keep swimming…just keep swimming…
Today, Ellie had her FIRST SWIM CLASS! I barely slept last night I was so excited! (Okay, that may not have been the actual reason.) I have high hopes that Ellie will love swimming as much as her momma does and that some day she might want to be on a swim team. They say [...]
Baby Got Talent
Tonight, I’ll just leave you with a pic of Ellie’s mad skills (pun intended)… Happy hump day!
Getting Out and About
Took the three-hour drive back to my old stomping ground today to visit the ‘rents. Ellie does best in the a.m. so packing the car was a rush job. Probably should have done some of it yesterday, but I’m at least happy that I had the forethought to wash the dirty cloth diapers before leaving. [...]
Best. Diet. Ever.
The good news is… I’m down 16 pounds since January 1st. (The bad news is my pants don’t seem to fit any different. What’s up with that?) I have Ellie’s 6mo birthday to thank for this miraculous weight loss. Not only am I burning calories by breastfeeding and taking walks with the stroller and hitting [...]
Everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day!
(Just realized this didn’t get posted…brain dead mommy moment.) Top of the morning to ya! This was probably my favorite St. Patty’s Day ever. For the first time, I really got into the spirit. Rob’s sister came to spend the weekend with us and see her favorite niece. There was gorgeous weather so we spent [...]
