Spring is here and the flowers are blooming and it’s time for another update on my growing little sprout. Is it just me or are the months flying by? Only four more months until Carmendy is one year old! It makes me feel so sad when I think about it because I love this age,… Continue Reading
My sister is having a boy!! Last Sunday, Roberta and Bobby hosted a book-themed gender reveal brunch and finally shared the news with family and friends. I’m so excited to have my first nephew and another little boy in the family. Roberta is a school librarian and book lover (you might remember her very popular… Continue Reading
Every now and then I reflect on my life and realize things never quite go as expected in this crazy journey of parenthood. It’s more than a little ironic…being a mommy is seriously one mindf**k after another. Don’t believe me? Keep reading.
