I just realized that I never did Max’s birthday questions when he turned 1. I do it for his sister so I should probably do it for him too. Poor Max…the neglected 2nd child is a REAL thing. But don’t worry, we still love you just as much…promise!!! :) It’s only FOUR months late…but I’m […]

Every year I ask Emma a set of birthday questions. This was the first year where she answered every single question on her own! I will probably say this a lot but this might be my favorite age. It’s so fun when your kid goes from a blob that does nothing but eat, sleep, cry […]

YUP. Still here. It’s crazy. My husband, son, and daughter are all asleep. And I have 45 minutes to write an update on my life to catch you all (ok maybe nobody but me) on the state of my life. That should be plenty of time right? So it’s 2015 and pretty much every other […]

So…it’s been awhile since I last wrote. Pretty much the only thing different is well… I’m pregnant again!!!! and it’s going to be a boy!!!! This pregnancy has been going surprisingly much better than with Emma. 1st trimester sucked…but 2nd trimester wasn’t too bad! I’ve only thrown up once this whole pregnancy even! So happy […]

Anyone out there anymore? I remember a time when I used to blog every single day. Now, I can barely find the time to make a post once a month! There are actually a billion other things I could or should be doing, but I thought I should carve out some time to update this […]

Sorry I haven’t been posting lately. I seriously spent most of my evenings this month trying to save all of my hundreds of saved and tagged items from Google Reader. It wasn’t until this past week that Feedly finally added tags and a browser version that I was finally able to breathe a sigh of […]

This is a pinterest pin: 20 Questions to ask kids every year on their birthdays Since Emma can’t talk yet, I’ll try to answer the best I can…so it *might* be a little biased…haha 1. What is your favorite color? red (Emma always reaches for red things we noticed!) 2. What is your favorite toy? […]

I keep saying this but really….I can NOT believe my daughter is 1 YEAR OLD! She is no longer a baby…she is a toddler. Before I know it she will be a teenager, going off to college, getting married. OMG things are moving too fast!!! As I navigate parenthood, I find myself fluctuating between wishing […]

I can NOT believe we are 1 month away from Emma turning 1!!! She still seems very much a baby to me. It doesn’t help that she is definitely on the small end of the scale (weighing around 15 lbs!!) and not yet walking. Where she is lacking physically she is making up with her […]

***Below was written around the 10 month mark and I got so busy that I never finished til now*** I can’t believe the only time I ever update this blog is when I force myself to do Emma’s monthly updates. That just tells you how busy being a parent is!! Emma has been a little […]
