Croup. Blogger Dreams. Guilt.
I’ve been feeling guilty about what a MIA blogger I’ve been, here and even more so over at my other blog and at SoVo.
The problem with guilt is that instead of inspiring me to go do something, it inspires me to hide out and avoid things, which in turn makes me feel more guilty, and […]

My Cute Family
Do I have a cute family, or do I have a cute family?

Noah also had fun playing BAH! (He got obsessed with these balls at music class on Saturday, so we asked the teacher where she got them. Big Lots! Six nubbled soft balls […]

14 Months
Dear Noah,

3 am
3 am is not my favorite time of day. Especially 3 am with a baby screaming and screaming and screaming for no apparent reason.
