We live in a scary, beautiful world and right now women are at the forefront of it all. I don’t know how to properly capture my thoughts on the #Me Too and Time’s Up movements. I feel sad that we need these movements at all. I feel grateful that change is happening now. I feel grateful to those women who have suffered abuse and injustice for speaking their truth. I feel grateful FOR those women ... View Post
New Day Resolutions
We are 5 days into 2018 and I don't have a resolution. I don’t buy the whole ‘New Year’s resolution’ concept. If there is something you want to change or try or work through, why are we waiting until the New Year to start? Tomorrow is a new day and it’s never too late to try again, start over, set a new goal or take a second chance. Cliché right? But no more cliché than the concept of a New Year’s ... View Post

Bath Time is the Worst Time
I hate bath time. I hate it and always have, even before my babies were born. I had this weird phobia of bathing a baby. The whole idea of bathing a teeny-tiny infant was the scariest part of impending motherhood. So much could go wrong. I literally bought several baby books and, before our first daughter was born, realized I had only read the chapters on bathing and what to pack for the hospital. ... View Post
Mom Confession Monday
#MomConfessionMonday. I’m making this a real thing, friends and this is round 2 (first round can be found here)! I have a million mom confessions that I could share, which makes me think that you probably do too. So, let’s share. Share the crazy, share the love, share the little white lies we tell our babies (and for good reason), share what gets you through the long days. Just so you get the gist ... View Post
