Evan Visits the Ross County Fair

August 13, 2010

Last Saturday we took Evan for a visit to the Ross County Fair, along with my mom and dad. The main objective of the fair trip was for Evan to have the opportunity to see some real, live, FARM ANIMALS! Evan can chime in with the appropriate animal sounds for a: cow, sheep, horse, cat, [...]

Unfortunately, this is not an informative post, filled with 1st birthday party ideas and inspiration. Sorry! I’m actually asking you to help me out!

I Think the Lack of Sleep Is Catching Up With Me

May 1, 2010

They aren’t kidding when they say that having a baby means you will lose completely the quality of sleep that are accustomed to. Before having Evan, I could sleep for 7-9 hours a night, wake up feeling refreshed, and have a productive day! Now, I’m feeling pretty great if I manage to get 4 or [...]

Desperately Seeking My Inner Domestic Goddess

April 6, 2010

I love taking care of my son. I enjoy feeding him, playing with him, and I even enjoy changing his diaper. I look forward to seeing his smiling face every morning, and I start missing him the moment I put him to bed. I do relish a little quiet time, don’t get me wrong, but [...]

Jewelry Is Good for the Soul

March 28, 2010

I have always been more of a t-shirt and jeans kind of girl, however, I do enjoy nice handbags and beautiful jewelry. I used to have a huge collection of pretty pendants that I liked to wear before giving birth to Evan, but as you mom’s out there know, it’s not the best idea to [...]

Just a Thought

March 18, 2010

Dear IP: 99.63.71.74 , adsl-99-63-71-74.dsl.aus2tx.sbcglobal.net, If you want to leave nasty comments regarding me and my pet-parenting skills, feel free. In fact, if you really want to help my poor, abused, mistreated pets (haha, funny since they are spoiled) I’d be happy to LET YOU HAVE THEM. Apparently you have no life, and plenty of [...]

Free to a Good Home

March 17, 2010

I was browsing through some of my old photos the other day and came across some photos of our cat, June, when she was a kitten. Just look at how adorable she was: June, and our other cat Mewson, have always been a handful. They are not mellow cats by any means, and their antics [...]

Waiting for Spring to Be Sprung

March 5, 2010

I don’t think I have ever loathed a winter more thoroughly than I have this one. I am not sure if it’s just because I am extra cooped-up since having Evan, or if this season has just really been that heinous. For the past two days the sky has been blue, and the sun has [...]

My New Favorite Word Is ROUTINE

February 28, 2010

For the first several months of Evan’s life, I found it nearly impossible to scrape up any semblance of routine. He was definitely NOT a good sleeper (not at night, anyway) and meals came around the clock. Most nights we didn’t even try to get in bed until 1:00 a.m., if not later. Life seemed [...]

Always Rushing

February 22, 2010

I can remember hearing parents say: “It takes us two hours to get out the door!”, and thinking, really? Why? How hard could it be to throw your kid’s junk in a diaper bag, put a coat on him or her, and be on the road? Now that I have Evan, I can totally understand. [...]
