Things have been a bit crazy lately. I guess when it rains, it pours. We got a scare earlier in the week with Dan’s Crohn’s disease. He had a flare-up, and was in severe pain, so much so that he cancelled his business trip and checked himself into the ER on Monday. They ran tests [...]

Going toe to toe with my Toddler
Posted in 13 to 18 Months, Difficult Times, Parker on 04/07/2011 | Leave a Comment »
I would love for everyone to think that my son is a perfect angel all the time, but since my blog is all about keeping it real, I have to be honest when it comes to my struggles as well as my victories, right? Parker has been having a hard time lately. As much as [...]
A bad stretch of days
Posted in Difficult Times, Dreams, Parker, Third Trimester on 02/09/2011 | 4 Comments »
It all started on Friday night. I had two days in a row of an intense work out on the ol’ cross trainer at the gym, and I think I over did it. By night’s end my pelvic area was so sore that it hurt to walk up the stairs, get in and out of [...]
Calming my paranoia
Posted in Difficult Times, Mason, Projects on 12/17/2010 | 1 Comment »
The past week has been rough. It started with Dan and I attempting to paint the nursery. We had considered hiring painters, but after getting our first quote of $350, we decided that it was best for us to do it ourselves. We decided on using eggshell finish (okay, I decided, Dan really wanted to [...]
The Worrywart in me
Posted in Difficult Times, Second Trimester on 09/24/2010 | 1 Comment »
I thought this pregnancy would be different. I thought that since I had done this before, that I should just lay back and take it easy and not worry since it ain’t my first rodeo. However, I’m starting to see it creep in…slowly. It started Saturday night after Parker’s party. I woke up about 2am, [...]
Bye-Bye Paci
Posted in 10 Month Old, Difficult Times on 07/22/2010 | 1 Comment »
I decided a few months ago when Dan told me that he would be out of town Tues-Fri for a sales meeting in Seattle, that I would take this week to wean Parker of his much LOVED, adored, idoled paci. Its easier to do when Dan is traveling because he works from home. I was [...]
Screamer
Posted in Difficult Times, Seven Month Old on 04/30/2010 | 1 Comment »
Someone snatched my boy. Someone took my sweet cuddly, laughable, smiling ball of sunshine and replaced him with a a loud, shrilling screamer. I thought I we were in the clear since we avoided the dreaded colic, blessed with only few crying nights, and had a son that seemed to have a sunny disposition. That [...]
Nightlife with a four month old
Posted in Difficult Times, Sleepy Lowdown, Three Month Old, Uncategorized on 01/08/2010 | 4 Comments »
Life has been super crazy lately. My milk supply has gone down, which has made nursing my little guy extremely exhausting. I’m trying to listen more to his cues instead of going by a schedule since my supply is so low. Once it gets back up, we’ll be back on a routine of sorts. We [...]
Feeling like a crappy Mama
Posted in Daily Life, Difficult Times, Feeding, Three Month Old on 01/04/2010 | 4 Comments »
I knew the day would come, I just didn’t think it would come this soon. I thought my crappy Mama period would be sometime in his childhood when I slipped and let him watch a movie that was too violent, or when he gets to be a older back-talking teenager, and I loose my cool [...]
Mystery solved
Posted in Difficult Times, Postpartum, Uncategorized on 10/13/2009 | 1 Comment »
I know I seem obsessed with nursing by this point, but just wanted to make one more follow-up post on the one below. I found out through the forums on La Leche League website that the reason why feeding is so painful is because I have thrush. This is a self diagnosis, but I really [...]
