I’ve realized that I don’t fully understand the tenants of atheism and agnosticism as much as I would like to. I have made it a point to define my religion not by one particular denomination but rather as a mix of various spiritual beliefs that make sense to me. I don’t have one religion, I [...]

The next step

Gabriel is officially moving to formula. The boy is growing so fast and eating so much that quite frankly I can’t keep up. I feel proud of the 5 1/2 months of breast milk that I gave him but my goodness I am SO READY to be done nursing. I will miss a few things [...]
My Moment of Clarity

Tippy toes were discovered by parents who just got the baby back to sleep even though it is way past their time to wake up but the parents want to sleep in on a Saturday morning and it is too risky to let the whole foot touch the ground and cause a creak in the [...]

My parents got divorced when I was one. My mom didn’t make enough money for us to have a place on our own so we lived with friends and family in the beginning. At one point we lived with my aunt in her one room studio. At another point we lived with my mom’s best friend [...]

Okay confession time. My husband and I have a sickening habit. It’s gross. I’m ashamed of it. But it’s true. It is the epitamy of lazy american. I don’t want to admit to it outloud. I think Ryan and I both kinda hoped we could keep it our dirty little secret. We hide it from [...]

I didn’t realize what a luxury grocery shopping sans kids was until I had one myself. Having a nursing newborn at home can make shopping a little tricky since you are given only a small window of freedom to get things done. My most recent shopping expedition was an interesting experience. I left baby at home with daddy and [...]
The Finish Line

My mom was consistent from the very beginning. She said that “you can count on only one thing: it won’t go the way you plan it.” She was talking about my delivery and she was right: it didn’t go the way I planned. I knew the risk of having a cesarean was higher with an [...]

In less than one month I will be working again. Sniff sniff. Which means I have to get a move on with finding somebody to care for Gabriel. NOT AN EASY TASK let me tell you. Luckily my mom has so generously offered to watch the angel two days a week until we find a [...]

I can’t describe what I feel for him, words escape me when I look at his precious face. I’m not trying to be poetic when I say that. I really mean it when I say that words escape me. I look at him in awe. I don’t think, I just feel. The intense feelings I [...]
