Guest Post: 9 Things I Wish I Did Before I Had My Second Kid

This is a guest post written by Tara Pringle Jefferson. 1. Upgrade items from baby #1. Since I got pregnant with my son a few days shy of my daughter’s first birthday, a lot of her baby items were still in semi-decent shape and would be good to use with the new baby. Or so…

The Terrific Two’s, Le Sigh

waaahh

You’re not happy with your toys. Once they’re spread all throughout the house, you quit them. Everything that’s not a toy, you must touch. We pretty much can’t decorate, everything must be up high out of your reach. The house is pretty much a mess 24/7. NO! STOP! HEY! LEAVE IT ALONE! You know those…

Refreshing Thoughts

This morning after nursing Boogie, he grabbed my face with his little hands and gave me two smooches. My little man is growing up so fast. I don’t know how I’ll ever adjust to him sleeping in his own bed in a few months. I’m moving slow today, I’m recouping from two days spent with…

My Face Says I Want Twins?

Yesterday we took Boogie to his followup appointment with the Dermatologist. I’m working on a separate post about Boogie’s Eczema, by the way.

Something really great happened to us a week ago. It is why I’ve been able to be more productive. We will be blogging about it separately as it deserves a separate dedication. I’m on such a high! I am not Supermom, but I will attempt to reach my idea of the status. My mother always…

Santa Bring Me An External Flash, I’ve Been Good!

[flickr]photo:2934691223(medium)[/flickr] I absolutely abhor using the standard flash on my camera. I prefer to take pictures in natural sunlight. Taking pictures indoors when the sun’s not shining really funks things up. Yes I could use the standard flash, but to me that darn thing makes pictures look unprofessionally icky. So for Christmas I think I…

I’m Not Having Any More…

Daddy and I attempted to get our sleeping back on track (we’re night owls) by going to bed at 8PM the other day, but Boogie was not having it. He started to fuss in the middle of the night. He’s teething, did I mention that? We brought him in the living room for new scenery….
