Too Much Stuff!

I find it absolutely amazing how much “stuff” one can collect over the years. I have lived in my own home for about 9 years at this point (meaning stuff isn’t at my parents), and over that time I have accumulated more “stuff” than anyone could possibly need. As The Captain will be quick to…

The 6 O’Clock Hour

In the past I have always heard of moms talk about “The Witching Hour”. They claimed that this is when their child became rather fussy, and it usually happened at night. I never thought much of it, and even sometimes thought that they were exaggerating. That is until I became a mom myself…oh boy do…

I certainly must be having mommy brain because it seems that I totally forgot to blog about the newborn photo shoot that we had back in DECEMBER! Wow! I can’t believe I never shared that with you!? If I did write it, I can’t seem to find it…again totally having mommy brain. I actually feel…

Cause and Effect

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I have been blessed with a very good baby. Of course he has his good days and bad days, but overall he has a good disposition, and is a happy boy. Although most of the time this is wonderful, I have to admit that sometimes it…
