Realization (Duh.)

Having a baby is waaaaay better than being pregnant.

What I Should Put On Our Family Answering Machine

"Hello, this is Tantrum Central. How may I help you?"

And I thought we had hit "terrible twos" already. Geez.

I Just Can't Win

I bought pants a little too big instead of a little too small thinking they would shrink (and because all my other pants being too small is why I went shopping in the first place). Instead they stretched. Argh.

Clear the snow from your sidewalk!

Thoughts from Tuesday's Walk

I like being a mom of two. And I'm so glad.

Postpartum

Can the next three and a half weeks hurry up? I am dying to go running again!

Mother/Son Date

The other night my boy and I went to the store just the two of us. A little over a week ago that was life, not a special date, but already I felt like I was missing something (like another child). It's so strange how what was normal just a few days ago just isn't anymore.

Big Life Changes

After something big happens to me (like Baby 2!), I feel like I have to get reacquainted with everyone and everything. Even friends I saw the day or week before she was born I feel like I haven't seen in forever and have to catch up with because such a big thing has happened to me since I last saw them.

I am beautiful because . . .

I love learning. Even though choosing motherhood may mean that I never have an advanced degree or a professional career, I will be learning, growing, and achieving throughout my life.

Free Mother

Today Baby has been sick and sleeping all day to get better. We're talking a six hour nap here, and I just don't know what to do with myself and all this free time. So I'm wasting it blogging, but I just wanted to share that I miss the sweet little guy when he's not around. Long naps are great, and needed for both of us, but after about two hours I start to miss him and get excited for him to wake up. I like that.

Pregnancy =

Hunger. All. The. Time. Seriously, Baby, I just ate. What more do you want?

At This Very Moment

I am barefoot and pregnant. And both of my own free will.

Sometimes I Wonder What We're Doing

Okay, it happens a lot. But especially when my one-year-old is up ALL night teething and we can barely handle it. And then I think what in the world we are ever going to do with two.

PB&J

Baby just had his first ever. This is where creativity in feeding a picky toddler has brought me. :)

Sweet Little Companion

I few weeks ago I had the chance to run errands by myself (without baby), and I didn’t want to. I knew I’d be lonesome without my little companion. I am one lucky mommy.

“I Just Haven’t Met You Yet” Sung by Michael Buble

Sometimes I think about how this song is about me and my little boy. I like it that way. A lot.

Two Babies in One House

Makes this mommy really confused. I never know which sounds are coming from mine.

What Did I Do With My Life Before You Came Along?

I just can't imagine going back.

The Between Babies Thing

I just have to admit that I am enjoying having my nail proteins all to myself once more.
