new adventures in blogging

It used to be I would write blog posts from bed on my iPod Touch, on the notepad app and then I’d email it to myself to publish the next time I got to a computer. Or, if I didn’t feel like waiting, I’d do it all from the browser on my iPod which wasn’t very easy. However, it seems we have rounded a new corner in technology and blogging. This past weekend, we got a new cell plan and…

a 3 year old’s thoughts on birth

a 3 year old’s thoughts on birth

This morning, Savannah and Caroline and I were lounging on the bed before we got up for the day. I turned to Caroline and said, “You were born right here in this very spot!” Caroline, of course, just grinned and waved her arms and legs. “Caroline was born here,” Savannah echoed.

I have been struggling with basic jobs of keeping my house clean and having well balanced meals for my family. For every step forward, I am forced to take two steps back. I am tired and frustrated. I don’t even want to list the ways this week…

a day in the life of a SAHM

I’ve been wanting to do a “Day in the Life” post… I was planning on taking pics with my cell phone throughout the day to accompany the writing, but that didn’t happen. Maybe next time. ;-) *Warning: Poop mentioned. That is my life. I don’t like it any more than you do.* 9:00am I wake up groggily and see Savannah sound asleep on one side of me, and Caroline fussing on the other side. Paul had already left for work….
