So, Target has books for a dollar in the front section of their store sometimes. A while back, I found some books that were on clearance from the dollar section, and they were 25 cents each. I picked up Red or Blue, I Like You! It is a Sesame Street book, and I didn’t really [...]

I said, “NO!!”

Lots of times, when I’m home alone with Liv, if I have to go do anything in our bathroom, I just bring her with me and lock her in with me. She’s all over the place now. So, usually, as I’m doing my makeup or cleaning up (or what have you), I am constantly telling [...]
I Love You, Stinky Face
Posted in Just through my eyes..., On being mama on August 30, 2010 | 3 Comments »
I was sitting reading with the girls this afternoon, and we were reading the book, “I Love You, Stinky Face,” by Lisa McCourt. If you haven’t read it, the mama is tucking her little boy into bed one night and tells him how much she loves him. He comes up with some wonderfully imaginative scenarios…mama, [...]

So, it’s 12:16 am, and I’m sitting on a pull out seat/bed watching my little girl sleep peaceful as antibiotics drip through her IV into her little ankle. She is doing much much better now. She didn’t quite seem herself today. I fed her at 11:15 am, but she was fussy…writhing around, and didn’t eat [...]
A change in my world.

So my world has been turned upside down. In a very good way. I keep thinking, “I have SO much to write about on my blog now,” and that is usually followed shortly by the thought, “Now if I could just find the time to type…with two hands. I know that I loved this little [...]
