I don’t really take photos of myself anymore. I don’t know if it’s because I’m more insecure than ever, or less vain. Either way, I kind of forgot what Ryan and I looked like on film. Our daughter is the star of the show now – but it is nice to glance over photos (of […]

The Self Hat: Mommy Quiz
Recently, I’ve been following a blog by the authors of, I Was a Really Good Mom Before I Had Kids. I haven’t read the book yet - but somewhere in between conference calls, play dates, diaper changes, grocery shopping, housekeeping and middle of the night feedings, I plan to. Anyway, on this blog I came across a quiz that […]
The Family Hat: Making History
My camera isn’t going to do this road trip justice – but hopefully it helps to paint the picture of the great weekend we just had. . Kelsey, Ryan, my mom and I just drove 7 hours east so Kelsey could see her great grandparents and meet her great great grandma. That’s not a typo – […]
The Why Me Hat: Argh!!
Remember that crappy day I just told you about? This. just. happened. I was walking into my house from the garage, carrying six bags of groceries. (Keep in mind, I have an OCD, control-freak side of me. Thus, ever since I have been little, I refuse to take two trips from the car into my house when carrying groceries. I […]
The Mommy Hat: A Baby’s Determination
She was so determined to get this ball! It rolls around the room playing songs, and she was having the hardest time catching it. Mommy couldn’t catch her long enough to get all of the sweet potato off her face, but she didn’t seem to mind. Got it Lost it Got it About to tackle […]
The All-About-Me Hat: Gloomy Days
This is how I feel today. I kind of want to pull my hair out. I’m super stressed and feel like I’m getting pulled in 1.2 million directions. I think every person can relate (mom or not) to feeling like this every once in a while. Perhaps it’s healthy? If it weren’t for the bad […]
The Crafty Hat: Fall Craft Ideas
Welcome, fall. I’ve been expecting you. I love fall. It’s the time of year when I get to light my Pumpkin Spice candles, sip on a hot lattes without breaking a sweat, decorate the house in seasonal colors and have an excuse to shop every weekend (I’m doing early Christmas shopping, dear). I also love fall because it reminds me of family. It reminds me […]
The 1st Time Mom Hat: Birth Clubs
I’m in a club. I was hesitant at first. But, I’m in. . Months ago, I went to Baby Center and joined the February 2010 Birth Club. I have to tell you – this club was a lifesaver for me during the first months home with baby. Here’s how it works: You sign up for […]
The Family Hat: Daddy’s Looks
I love this photo. A) Because I think these two look so much alike. B) Because nothing is cuter than watching your baby girl sit on her daddy’s lap and just talk and talk and talk. I love these two! Ahem, three (if we’re counting Miles).
