Since when did my three-year-old daughter get a calendar of events for me to manage? In the past three weeks she has gotten five birthday invitations. Two of them are on the same day. I had to laugh that she has more going on than I do. It makes me happy for her to have birthday parties to attend. It’s a welcome escape to the monotony of any given weekend …

Aw, man last week was torture. I have never seen so many Facebook posts from my mom friends whining about the weather than I did last week. I was atop the list of whiners by the way. As a stay-at-home mom, everyday waking to the sound of the rain was akin to having to wake up to go to work some mornings back when I was a worker. It was …

Today is my birthday. I usually dread them. Every year, without fail I think about things like investing in a good eye cream as I notice my wrinkles increasing in depth and expanding their territory on my face. It’s weird to me that I don’t think about wrinkles on a normal basis, but on my birthday yes, I do.
I took a little flack last blog when I wrote about my …

I guess I’m pretty lucky that at 29 weeks pregnant I can still wear most of my pre-pregnancy jeans. Please note that I said I can wear them, but that doesn’t mean I can wear them as well as when I am not pregnant. I’d like to thank a little thing called the Bella Band for helping make that possible. If you don’t know about Bella Bands, they are this …

Time for my baby update: I’m 28 weeks and counting. I told a friend this week that I feel as though I am slowing down these days. That could be on account of my pregnancy or because I chase after two very active little girls, or both. Either way, I’m very excited to be on the cusp of a new baby pretty soon. I’m also kind of freaked out.
This is …

My holidays this year weren’t so hot. In fact, they sucked. So it comes to no surprise to me that I’m really looking forward to starting a new year and welcoming in 2010. My something new will invariably come with a whole bunch of diapers come April 1st when I meet my new baby girl. I’m really excited to have a newborn again. I’m also a little afraid too. I …

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring…because they were all sick in bed with the stomach flu. So, it took me a little later than usual to post my blog this week due to the fact that I brought the stomach flu down to Southern California with me and infected my entire family for the holidays (including my 93 year old grandmother). …

It’s Hanukkah. We have a few days left of lighting candles and celebrating. My daughters don’t really understand this holiday but they do know that we light candles and open a present each night. They may not yet understand the meaning behind the rituals of this holiday but they understand presents. For my family, Hanukkah is not the most important Jewish holiday but it is one that we welcome and …

I just flew down to Southern California to visit my mom and help her get the house ready for the holidays. I took my 18 month old daughter, Georgia with me. The flight from Oakland to Burbank seemed a doable one hour and 15 minutes. In preparation for flying I packed a billion goldfish crackers, pretzel sticks, fruit, a sippy cup of water, an empty bottle for milk, and some …

Coming up with names for my two daughters wasn’t difficult. Our eldest daughter’s name came to me almost instantly. The same thing happened with our second daughter. Her name was one that we came upon after finding out her gender. My husband and I may tell people the gender of our children to be but we do not tell the names. We want to avoid any unnecessary comments or judgments …
