I have gone through some lame phases in my life but they have helped me learn about life and become who I am. Like the phase where everyone seems to be cooler than me and so I would just copy people and their mannerisms trying desperately to be cool. This phase lasted a big portion [...]
I am in the process of weaning Eva but I think I am actually weaning myself. The main reason I have decided to do this is because she gets up a 1 a.m. and wants to nurse and is restless and nursing until about 5 a.m. when she finally falls back to sleep. Obviously this [...]
I think it is time to start training Eva to sleep through the night and do it in her crib. I know it will be easier if I do it now and it will be harder the longer I wait. I know that it will be better for her as well; she needs to get [...]
We went to my mom’s last weekend to celebrate Eva’s first birthday. I can not believe it has been a year. I read what I wrote about my delivery and it seems like it just happened. My life is so different. I am so different. With a kid time goes by much faster. It is [...]
OK so I know she looks a little crazy but how can a giggle not escape from you when you see this?
Eva still doesn’t sleep through the night and I don’t care.

The whole working mother thing is only for rich people.

The biggest decision I had to make recently was to get Eva the swine flu vaccine or not. In the beginning I decided not to and felt great about it. It was constantly debated around me but I never entered the debate or gathered information. My pediatrician told me it was safe [...]
These are the beautiful leaves that are gracing my yard. I love them.
I am very excited about their potential.
I am going to attempt to make my own mulch with them to use in my garden next year.
My first garden.
Not only do these beautiful leaves provide me shade in the summer and provide me beauty in [...]
I took these pictures a while ago and just
stumbled upon them today.
These are from when Eva couldn’t roll over yet
so she had to stare up at where ever I placed her.
At my office looking up at the tree I have. She loved this.
Looking up at me from her car seat.
What she sees when [...]
