Roadtrip

August 10, 2010

We bit the bullet and took a roadtrip this past weekend.  It was long, and by long I mean 12 hours one way.  With a baby. And two big dogs.  In our Honda Accord.  Yes, long is probably an understatement. When consulting with Mr. Thesaurus it appears that torture is the first word to come [...]

This post is brought to you by the letter P.

July 29, 2010

P as in poop, pee, and puke.  Our week has been filled with the aforementioned.  While a great lesson for Ryann on what words start with the letter P, it is not a great stress reliever, in fact poop, pee and puke are wreaking havoc in our lives right now.  Our dogs have left their [...]

Lessons learned.

July 22, 2010

This week has been an emotional and physical roller coaster.  Well more emotional than physical.  But through all of the emotions I have learned quite a few things. My daughter loves to feed to herself, she is eating table foods and enjoys daintily picking up each piece. But I have learned that she really only [...]

3.5 hours, one plate and a marriage.

April 6, 2010

The first nine months of our marriage we lived apart.  Not because we wanted to be apart, but because JPW’s job had him 3.5 hours away (and that was on a good day with zero traffic).  He came home every weekend.  I was bored all summer long after school ended, and before the baby came. [...]

Don’t try this at home.

February 9, 2010

Two insane newbie parents, two dogs, one baby, one “do it yourself” moving truck, a tow dolly and a partridge in a pear tree.  Our recent move sucked worse than Aunt Flow on your wedding night.  Some things should be left to the professionals and moving a household with a new baby is one of [...]

Just because I dropped a pant size doesn’t mean I can eat brownies for breakfast.

February 1, 2010

My second installment of “Not so fit and fabulous” Monday and I almost reached my goal of walking three times last week, but seriously I need to lay off the cookies, ice cream and brownies.  It’s awesome that I had to buy a smaller pair of jeans, but the donuts I ate for breakfast yesterday [...]

It’s not always puppies and rainbows

January 29, 2010

Sometimes the post pregnancy glow and happiness of a newborn is overwhelmed by all the nasty side effects you weren’t ready for after delivery.  Moles, and not the little grass eating creatures that lurk in your lawn while you sleep, but the nasty growths that find their way onto your body when clearly they were [...]

My OCD gets the best of me.

January 22, 2010

I am dying to share our renovations to the website, but it’s not perfect yet. So here’s where we came from, how we got here and where we’re headed.  We started with an iWeb family webpage. It was cool and family could check up on us daily and it gave me something to do at [...]
