Yesterday we had a false alarm.
I’m only 39 weeks, and I have never ever had any signs of budging a day before 41 weeks. So I was a little curious when I woke up feeling “birthy”, as I like to call it. Luckily, we were able to meet some friends at the park that morning, [...]
In an effort to pull my thoughts together on the final things that need to be done to prepare for our birth, and knowing that for those of you that don’t home birth or have never experienced one, questions and curiosities abound, AND because I happen to know of at least one other Mamma who [...]
I know that there are many dark and depressing moments to come in the next two or three…or four… weeks. So, while I’m having an upbeat day, I’d like to list some things and people I’m really extremely grateful for. Sort of a happy list to refer back to later on when my brain stops [...]

Maybe it’s the home making magazine I got in the mail last week that seemed filled with inaccurate over-glorified descriptions of motherhood and home life. I’m sure it’s [...]
Boy, has it been bizarr-o world around here lately. The good news is that starting tonight we are packing all this dog soap into boxes to be shipped out this week! YAY! We are so ready to have our lives and our family get back to normal… and I use that term loosely.
