This week marks our three year anniversary of moving to Louisiana. Just the other day I was having memories of me and my pregnant belly driving down 49, with my two little boys and a hamster cage in the back of Tim’s Acura and my MIL in the passenger’s seat, helping to entertain us all. I can…
Our Own Photoshoot
The last night we were in Florida it was threatening to storm, which would of course be the same night we had planned to do photos on the beach. Of course. (I know I already said that). About the time we were getting ready it was literally pouring. And then? By the time we drove…
So, what else did we do?
There was some fishing for the dads and oldest boys, although the waters proved to be a little too rough for everyone’s tummy, except for Tim’s. Ugh. There was some shopping for the ladies (sans kiddos). There was some sightseeing and hanging out as a fam. There were some rides on wave runners and fish…
Please Remind Me
Today I have a guest post from my lovely friend, Liz, of Learning to Juggle. She also has two boys and baby girl like me and likes to run, and just finished her first half marathon!! It’s like we are the same person. 😉 Plus, I get to meet her at BlogHer in August –…
Saying Goodbye
Today my wonderful friend and roomie (we will be rooming together for the second time in a row at BlogHer in August) Jennifer, of Mom Made it Look Easy, is here with a sweet guest post for you all, while I’m hanging out at an undisclosed beach location, perhaps sipping some sort of fruity, spiked beverage. Find…
My Roots…

I’m Really Doing This & MEM
There have been some pretty exciting happenings around here lately. Including more friends trusting me with their precious family photo memories. That’s some kind of wonderful trust, if you ask me. I can only hope I lived up to the task for them. Thank you, my friends. I enjoyed it so much. And your family…
So I guess I can extend our zoo membership…
We are staying. It is a really good thing for my husband and for our family. But part of me wants to go. So badly. It is not that I do not like it here. But I like it at HOME better. Parts of my mind try to tell me to believe this can be…
If I’d only known you all then…
I wish I had the internet when my first child was born. I mean, I HAD the internet but not the way I do now. I didn’t have it as a friend. As a support group. As a place for respite in hard times and celebration in the good times. Like I do now. If…
Gluten Free Friend
The gluten free way of eating become a necessity for several people I know, as well as some of their children. So, I asked my friend Becca to write about it since I knew she had adopted it as well… Here is her take on how things have changed and stayed the same for her…
