When we met, I was fifteen and he was fourteen and I thought he was the best looking boy I’d ever seen. I wore a lot of glitter and drank Mountain Dew. He wore a fedora, and smoked lucky strikes unfiltered. I never dreamed that a lifetime from then we’d have created a life, a family, a future together. Happy… Read more →
Month: May 2010
Meanwhile, elsewhere on the internet…
So, I have some exciting news: I’m now blogging daily on all things art & design at a wonderful little place across the internet called CARGOH.COM. If you’re a lover of art, or fashion, or music, or design…this place is for you. My new home away from home, the Cargoh Culture blog is an eclectic mix of the current, the… Read more →
Woah Mamaroo!
I f-in’ hate when products come out like 6 months too late. I would have chosen 4Moms Mamaroo Bouncer over the Peg-Perego Melodia any day of the week, not to mention the [comparably priced] Bloom Coco or BJÖRN Babysitter (which is great for really little babies, because it cradles them and allows them to sit upright earlier, but quickly becomes… Read more →
The Girl Can’t Help It
We just can’t seem to coax that bottom lip out. Read more →
Little Charo
Yes, our preferred method of baby proofing IS piling pillows and blankets around the corners of furniture…why do you ask? [edit: I’ve gotten quite a few emails (and a couple tweets) asking where we got Dee’s playmat – It’s the Skip Hop Play Spot and it can be found HERE.] Read more →
Going Commando
Summer time is fast approaching, and for us hormonal nursing Mamas (am I the only one sweating like a hooker in church?) putting your baby under a nursing cover becomes…well…out of the question really, unless you were hoping for baked baby….which, I mean, although her chubby thighs do look tasty…I’m not. So my BabyBond nursing cover has been coming in… Read more →
Oh Happy Day.
I’ve been having a hard time lately. A hard time that is waiting to be discussed in another post that I’m letting percolate in my drafts folder for a while until I grow balls big and hairy enough to post it. But until then, let’s just say parenthood isn’t easy. Life really isn’t easy. And that can be a hard… Read more →
The Science of Sleep
One morning last week, I woke up around 6:45 – like I do every morning, fed Dee – like I do every morning, then snuck out of bed leaving my sleeping baby to snuggle with her Daddy for an hour or so while I got the day started…like I do every morning. So imagine my surprise when not ten minutes… Read more →
RipeGoods are Delicious
I can’t believe it’s effing May. It seems so recent that Scott and I were anxiously awaiting our 20 week ultrasound wondering if our little Danger Baby (as we often called Dee in utero) would turn out to be a boy or a girl. And yet here we are and a whole year has gone by. My sweet Dee is… Read more →
