Another Bump In The Road

January 7th, 2010 · 14 Comments

A little over two weeks ago, on December 18th, I got something I hadn’t had in almost four years: a positive pregnancy test. I was so excited. In fact, I wrote this:
Well, I just found out I am pregnant. I guess I already KNEW, but I was trying to not get my hopes up… […]

Ok, let’s give this little “year end wrap-up” a try:
1. What did you do in 2009 that you’d never done before?

Celebrated seven years of marriage to my lovely husband. Started rock climbing. Became president of the North Beaverton MOMS Club. Took Ana to Disneyland. Joined Stroller Strides. Attended a MOMS Club Luncheon. Saw my daughter […]

Working on Being Optimistic

December 4th, 2009 · 5 Comments

“Well, it looks like somebody did their homework!” my doctor said happily as she peered at me over the stack of charts I handed over to her nurse just moments ago.
I smiled, and said, “Yep. Considering the length of time it took me to get pregnant with Ana, we started charting as soon as we […]

September 21st, 2009 · 10 Comments

Simeon and I have been married for seven years today. SEVEN. But we have been together for almost 12 and friends for much, much longer. To celebrate the love we have for each other and the adventures we have taken together over the years, I wanted to put together a little collection of pictures of […]

Mother’s Day Adventure

May 12th, 2008 · 2 Comments

My second Mother’s Day was a wonderful success. So much in fact, I am actively advocating celebrating once a month! Us moms deserve it, don’t we?! My Mother’s Day essentially started last weekend when Simeon sent me on the MOMS Club Spring Retreat at a B&B in Lincoln City, complete with sleeping in, reading grown-up […]

On Being a Spoiled Princess

January 29th, 2008 · 3 Comments

I try not to take things for granted, honestly. But a person really gets use to having things a certain way. For me, it’s being a spoiled little princess. I admit there isn’t anything I want for. If we want it, we get it. Simple as that. Don’t get me wrong; we bust our butts, […]

Breakfast Musings

January 23rd, 2008 · 3 Comments

You know you have finally become an adult when you realize the cereal you just bought has a toy inside only AFTER it falls directly into your bowl. I remember a day when I would select my cereal purely based on the “prize” inside. Now I pick it based on several factors: 1) whether I […]

Brand Loyalty

August 15th, 2007 · 7 Comments

I will be the first to admit it: I am a brand snob. Or as my college marketing professor would say, I am “brand loyal” (which just sounds nicer anyway). Now, I am not exactly sure why I am, because I certainly wasn’t raised that way. In fact, quite the opposite. My parents were always […]

It Takes A Village

July 12th, 2007 · 7 Comments

I was just watching a TiVoed segment from yesterdays Today show (I don’t normally record the Today Show but there was an interview with Daniel Radcliff about the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix movie that I wanted to watch) that mentioned how the majority of mothers are overstressed and therefore unhappy. Well […]
