i couldn't have dreamed of a better baby while we were gone - he even
gave us his first giggles while we were away - and we caught them on
video!

may 30

getting ready for the trek home - wish I could snap my fingers and be at my back door.

may 29

Danced with my man and almost forgot I had a kid for a minute.

may 28

there is a definite gap between those my age with kids and those without - and I really don't mind being on the other side.

may 27

I am so thankful I have a good sleeper, but a good road-tripper too.

may 26

I never realized how hard packing for a baby is - I thought I needed a lot of crap.

may 25

I had a wonderful day with three kiddos, the sun was shining and if I wasn't already convinced I want AT LEAST three kids, I am now.

may 24

so excited to see what Curtis' surprise is for me tonight.

may 23

I'm excited for sushi and family tonight - two of my very favorite things.

may 22

i do not want the weekend to end - good thing we have a four day weekend coming up.

may 21

being a mom is hard.

may 20

all I want is a suntan - is that too much to ask?

may 19

I nursed in the backseat of the car with the air conditioning on because I didn't want the fun afternoon with my little buddy to end.

may 18

I hate grocery shopping, but it sure is nice to have a full fridge.

may 17

A little bit of coffee plus a little bit of work plus a good friend's visit and a cute-as-a-button baby equals a very pleasant day.

may 16

day one of being a work from home working mamma was eh alright - trying to breathe and take it one day at a time.

may 15

I pray we are turning a corner, the last few days have been rough.

may 14

this day is starting out way too much like yesterday and I don't think Incan handle two in a row.

may 13

This was by far the hardest day we've had in a long, long time - doesn't offer me much hope for next week when we had work to the mix.

may 12

i was up 45 minutes before my son this morning - it's amazing how much
one can do in time uninterupted.

may 11

sunshine + shorts + playdate = the makings of a great afternoon.

may 10

having a baby is an every day lesson on learning to chill.

may 9

I'm starting my last week of "freedom" today - starting the next chapter of work from home mommyhood next Monday, and I've got the anxiety to prove it.

may 8

I am inexplicably grateful for my mother, my son who made me a mother, and to God, who gave me both.

may 7

We're taking Micah-baby to the zoo for the very first time - we're non longer those weirdos at the zoo sans children.

may 6

i couldn't be more thrilled that spring is finally here - we took two walks today - one with him in the sling and one in the snuggly and it felt so good to just get out and feel the sun on our faces.

may 5

I'm excited to have a margarita with my family tonight for cinco de mayo.

may 4

this has been the most productive morning i've had in a long time - gives me hope for fitting work into this new life of mine.

may 3

I never thought dressing a milk-filled chest would be this difficult.

may 2

I was proud ofyself for making it to the vet with dog, baby, stool sample, purse, diaper bag and coffee in hand - and five minutes early at that.

may 1

it just hit me, i am exhausted and it is almost 4:30 - too late for a
nap and too early for bed.
