So, it’s been a month since I took some time off to deal with all the things that needed to be dealt with. The baby was sick – TWICE! Work stuff was legitimately crazy until about a week ago, and life just felt like it was going full tilt. But it’s been a little while […]

Personal – An Update and Busy Busy Busy

Ok, so last week, the baby was sick. This week, she’s doing lots better (yay!), but work has gotten crazy. Each year we have a big project that comes up from the beginning of April through mid-June, and it just takes a lot of time. With the baby being sick during this project, and me […]
Delay-Delay-Delay…Again

Guys, having kids is HARD. Also, having a job is hard. This is all to say that between my job having an emergency come up recently (water + books is not a good combination), and then Baby girl having been sick, I am just very behind in blog preparation. So behind that while I could […]
Personal – Two Years of Marriage and Some Thoughts

The Boy and I recently celebrated our second wedding anniversary, and our dinner out was pretty great – look for the restaurant review post next week. But as someone who got married and pregnant in quick succession after having the one serious boyfriend for a chunk of time that followed a long long stretch of […]
Personal – Vacation, All I Ever Wanted

By the time you read this, I’ll be on vacation. Correction – I’ll be winging my way back after being on vacation. If I’ve done things correctly, you won’t have missed me at all. As previously noted, the Boy, and all three girls and I have spent the previous two weeks in Japan. It’s the […]
Personal – A First Birthday

So, I’m the mom of a one year old now. It is a very strange thing – I hardly feel like I have been a mother for any time at all, and all of sudden she’s a year old? I mean, I don’t get it. Time has passed so quickly. People told me at the […]
ARGH

I am so frustrated. This past month, we have had a ridiculous number of delays and cancellations. Mostly it’s the delays that are the problem. Our daycare goes along with what the city does, and you’d think that being part of a city and not the county, we’d have the advantage of a more compact […]
Personal – Still Dealing

So – to recap: baby vomit. Pediatrician. All seemed ok. Back to daycare the next day, but only for 2 hours before I got a call saying, “She’s still got some digestive issues”. Mom came to help. I get sick in the night. The Boy gets home from a business trip. H comes over so […]
A Hard Day’s Night

Sorry for the lack of post today on our regular schedule. Baby girl didn’t sleep well last night, and I was the one who stayed with her while she struggled. We’ve got our fingers crossed that it was just a combination of a cold and teething, but ouchie. I’ll post what would have gone up […]
End of Year Wrap-Up 2018

So, first off, apologies for the delay on posting this week. With the additional federal holiday on Monday for Christmas Eve, and then the fact that I had viral pneumonia which prevented me from doing much of anything (including Christmas), the blog got lost in the shuffle. Add to that computer troubles now I’m back […]
