This is my favorite picture of our house.  In fact, it's one of my favorite pictures ever.  Our neighbors took this picture exactly one year ago today - March 26 2011 - after a huge and unexpectedly late snowfall blanketed the city.  You might think I like this picture because of the way the snow delicately frosts each tree branch, or maybe because it looks like there's a ...

December 12, 2011 · 5 Comments

Recently I read a really relevant-to-my-life-right-now post on a blog I follow about a Mom who has reached the "other side" of motherhood.You know - The Other Side?  The side where you go to bed with the knowledge that you won't have to wake up for 8 whole hours. The side where you tell your kids to go take a bath and you'll be up to read them a story after you finish your ...

This morning I had my 35 week ultrasound to make sure the baby is growing properly and help determine a date for the c-section.  I had an inkling this little fella (or whatever the female variation of fella is... fanny?) was on the larger side, mainly due to the sensation of a combine harvester crushing my spinal discs together every time I attempt to walk, get up off the ...
