Two things about the post title: Yes, I am 19 weeks pregnant (hence the baby reference) and we are super excited to welcome baby #2 in April 2020! Big sister E is excited about the baby and is looking forward to being a big helper to mom and dad. She is taking very good care of her baby dolls in preparation.

How Konmari Helped Boost My Body Confidence
I picked up Marie Kondo's The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up from the library (yes, I'm trying to get out of debt so book buying is not in my budget).

I was inspired to go … [Read more...]
Mom Shorts
My husband said these are Mom shorts. Yeah, well. I guess guilty as charged. Except that I bought these shorts 8 years ago before we went on our honeymoon.

Just Give Me Five Minutes Alone
I think any mom really just wants five minutes alone. Maybe to listen to "5 Minutes Alone" (c'mon, I know other moms must listen to Pantera. Maybe to make a phone call. Most definitely to take a shower. Geeze, why is it so hard to shower daily when you have a small child? Sometimes I really just need some Me time. Even if that Me time is just to take a shower in peace without a … [Read more...]
Real Life: Post-Christmas
So how was your Christmas? Was Santa good to you? Did you have a great time visiting with friends and family? Well, my Christmas was awesome aside from some unfortunate real-life side effects.
