So, after three and a half months of being locked up and tied to rusty metal hooks in the walls of a cold, dingy basement in the bottom of an old dragony dungeon castle (or, winter at my house), the babies finally talked us into dragging them down to Arkansas to show ’em off a […]
So, I’m seven weeks and one day into this whole being a mom thing, and I kind of can’t believe someone hasn’t yet locked me up and swallowed the key. I have to say, we’ve definitely found our rhythm. I have my weekday rhythm. We have our weekend rhythm. And Charlie is clearly content with […]
It snowed in Kansas City! It always snows here, so I have no idea why I just got so enthusiastic. Let me start over. We had our first snow day with the babes! Actually, they were born on a snowy day, so never mind. Let me try again. I never got out of my robe […]
It was January 6th, the coldest day ever. Ever in the history of the world and ever loving everness. I was 37 weeks and one day pregnant with a boy and a girl (ninja?) inside my cranktankerous belly. I was swollen. I was crampy. I was contractiony. I was anti-bacterial-y. I had makeup on! But […]
It’s the FIEEENNAAAAL COUNTDOOOOWWWWNNNNAAAAHH. Can you believe we’re at 34 weeks and one day. How? HOW? Which coincidentally rhymes with cow. COW. Funny how that works. At this point in the game, there’s just not that much to say. Ohhhh don’t get too excited. I still plan on draping you with mental armpit fart […]
28.4 weeks in, muthuuuuuz. MAN is this a total trip. An uncomfortable, gassy, heifer heavy, ribcage rampage, urination station of a trip. But first, could we talk about how J.C. Penny my expression is in this photo? I don’t usually look so wide-eyed, GOLLY-GOSH-IT’S-SUCH-A-SWELL-DAY, MATEY. Or maybe I do. Maybe it’s the new me? THE […]
Well, hi. Would you believe another four weeks have passed in this pilgrimage de preggoville? I’m right at the halfway mark, and I can proudly say with complete poise and confidence, “waaaaaaaaaaaaah.” It’s actually been a fantastic four weeks! I’ve never felt more incredible. I’ve got energy. I’ve got sass. I’ve got rhythm. I’ve got […]
I have a feeling you’ve started to catch on. I’m not posting regularly. I’m whiney-er than normal. I’ve grown a rando cowlick on the back of my head and my dreams consist of plaid lizards rescuing me from a 75-foot chocolate waterfall whilst wearing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle princess dress. Yeeeeeeep. I’m totally knocked […]
Lifestyle post! Life post? Travel post? Long Weekend post? Here Are My Friends post? Haven’t Cooked in Forever and My Toenails Just Grew post? Actually, I’ve been flirting with the idea of incorporating more of these random lifey posts here and there. What do you think? Would you be into that? Or are you a […]
A substantial amount of fun was had over the last 48 hours. My sister-in-law Carolyn was in town visiting. When we’re together things get dangerous. Things get crazy. Things get silly. Things get fun. After a successful morel mushroom find at the farmer’s market, a lazy afternoon eating subs in the park, and the viewing […]
