Gnome is Where the Heart is.
Riley’s at this really great age where all new TV shows and movies are the most amazing thing to him. So when I told him we had a new movie to watch last week, dude was all about it. He hasn’t seen Gnomeo and Juliet yet, but I figured he’d be okay missing some plot points […]

Emotional Whiplash.
Life with a three year old is exhausting. It’s fun, but it’s exhausting. Lately we’ve been dealing with some extremes. Extreme cuteness when Riley tries to make Rhys laugh. And extreme adorableness when he succeeds. Extreme sweetness when he asks me for hugs out of the blue or wants to be held. But then we […]

A Letter from My Little Brother.
Four years ago I wrote my little brother a letter before he left for college. And honestly, I sort of forgot about it. This past weekend, he graduated. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to make the trip to New York but my parents, my aunt, my sister and her fiancé did. And thanks to technology I […]

On who I am (at the moment)
So it’s been a while over here and today I’m taking a page out of Kerri’s book. And sharing who I am…at the moment. I AM… …34. My birthday was two weeks. It came and went with very little fanfare on my end. Usually I’m all about the birthday, but it’s safe to say that […]

My Barnacle Baby.
Guys. I jokingly called Rhys my Barnacle Baby. But honestly, the nickname is so true. This kid is only happy if he’s being held or worn. I feel like I spent the majority of my day with him attached to me. I mean, Riley was sort of the same way and I vaguely remembered how […]

Rhys: One Month
Guys. GUYS. Yesterday marked ONE MONTH OF RHYS. Also ONE MONTH OF TWO KIDS. And sweet mercy, we made it. I made it. Barely, ha. I feel like this calls for a celebration, or a donut, or more wine, ha. But really, it’s amazing how fast this month went and how little sleep I got. […]
