Recently we were talking about going #1 and #2 during a family dinner with my sisters and parents (totally normal discussion, right?). One thing could be concluded from this conversation: Whoever came up with the terms “restroom” and “bathroom break” was clearly a man. Yep, there are some distinct differences between a dad using the… Continue Reading
Are you a mom with young children who made a New Year’s resolution to lose a few pounds? Don’t stress too much. Remember you’ll be getting an extra workout this winter — everyday when you have to leave the house and force your children into cold weather clothing. And while you’re trying to keep your… Continue Reading
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…time for Carmendy’s monthly update! Our little girl is 16 months old. This one is going to be short, because there isn’t much to report (that I can remember anyway). I mean have 30 days really gone by?? It feels more like 4 and like there should be… Continue Reading
It’s that time of the year — time to regale you with tales of our 3-year-old Owen. These update posts can get quite long, so without further ado, here’s what our little man has been up to for the past three months. Now that we’re well into age three, I can officially say that three-year-olds… Continue Reading
You guys, this is BIG. You’ve got to watch the latest video from Kiddie Kopps Productions. It’s only a minute long but Owen and Carmendy’s performances are Oscar-worthy. It’s so good I’m thinking I should switch from a blogger to a vlogger. And you’ll want to wait until the end for this video…you don’t want… Continue Reading
I’m about ten days behind with this monthly update, as usual. BUT Carmendy is still 14 months old AND we took her photos on the actual date of her birth this month. So I’m kind of killing it this month, at least compared to my punctuality in the rest of my life. I should probably give this post… Continue Reading
Good news! I’ll be chronicling Carmendy’s second year of life monthly, so you’ll continue to see her cute pics every 30 days. Here’s our 13-month-old’s first second year report and photos. It’s a little late (okay, maybe two weeks late….but at least I’m posting this before she’s 14 months old!). This past month Carmendy reached… Continue Reading
She’s one! What a wonderful year it has been with our baby girl Carmendy. I tried to soak in every moment with her, knowing how quickly the days and months go by. And here I am trying to write a post about the very last month of her first year and I can barely remember… Continue Reading
Hard to believe, but Owen has been three for nearly a month. I swear we must have jumped through a wormhole because it feels impossible that I have a three year old and a one year old. While I find myself in the throes of deep sadness every time I think about how big my… Continue Reading
And just like that she’s nearly one year old. Can we all agree that this has been the fastest year ever?? I’m trying my best to soak in every moment with our soft and playful 11-month-old. It won’t be long before she’s a defiant threenager like her brother. Carmendy has changed so much in the… Continue Reading
