Seven months old. How is that possible?? My bambina is growing too fast. Although I wish I could slow down time, I also love this age. I remember that I really started actually enjoying motherhood at this stage with Owen. And I feel the same with Carmie – she can sit and play, she is… Continue Reading
Potty training. Two words that send chills down every parent’s back. There are many hurdles in this crazy journey of parenthood and this one is a biggie. You know before you even begin that it’s going to stink (no pun intended). The combination of the words training, toilets, toddler, urine and feces pretty much sounds… Continue Reading
How the heck did that happen?? Six months have really gone by since Carmendy arrived in our kitchen? Gosh, it went by fast. (Yet an hour of Caillou and a 2 a.m. feeding can feel so long. The great mysteries of life.) In fact, Carm is 6 and 1/2 months old. I’m a wee bit… Continue Reading
Has it really been two weeks since my last post? Aaahh, sorry I’ve been MIA. I’ve been busy writing this extremely long post about Owen. Yep, he’s two and a half now and it’s time for another update on my silly boy. So much has happened in the past three months – it’s hard to… Continue Reading
Little Carmendy is five months old. And even though we’re in the midst of the long weeks of winter, the days are going by quickly! There’s barely enough time in one day to feed the kids, get them dressed, put them to bed, and clean up their accidents and blow-outs. The past few weeks were… Continue Reading
Since Owen was born, I have really developed a passion for taking photos. A LOT of photos. I am admittedly a mamarazzi. Owen has been photographed as often as an A-list celebrity in the past two years. I’m no professional photographer though; I’m just an amateur that has fun with her camera. But after taking over… Continue Reading
In the spirit of the holiday season and spending time with loved ones, I’m sharing some photos of my family with all of you. A few weeks ago, Jamal (who I went to grade school with) of Pecou Photography took our family photos. He’s so talented – we will cherish these photos for years to… Continue Reading
Carmendy has been 4 months for over a week now. And Christmas is only 6 days away. How did that happen? Time is speeding by. We’ve been so busy during the past month – a visit to Lancaster to see her great grandmother, her first ride into Philly on the train, her first tree lighting,… Continue Reading
Our little chunkster is three months old! And she has been for nearly two weeks. I’m just finally getting around to posting her monthly update – just in time for Thanksgiving! I am feeling so very thankful for my baby girl (and Owen too), as I write this post. Carmendy’s demeanor has stayed the same.… Continue Reading
Boy is my boy getting big! It’s been over three months since the last time I posted about Owen. I’ve missed writing about him and I bet you’ve missed reading about him (or maybe it’s just me and Richard that find him to be endlessly entertaining?). There’s so much to say about the past three… Continue Reading
