I've made it pretty clear, here and in my real life, I have really not been up to the idea of a second baby. I have never said never but I have certainly not been in the camp of wanting to go for a second. I haven't had that pull and I have certainly had [...]

Living safely versus living bigger
My husband came home last night and looked defeated. We sat and discussed what was going on with his job. The issues that have come up. A normal ebb and flow to a company but sometimes it wears you down and this is what is happening to him. He is loyal to his boss but [...]
I do not always have my shit together
I was up all night with Cora, again. We rocked in the rocker for a couple of hours, again. She would scream hysterically when I laid her down, again. Teething has reared its ugly head, again.

Halloween in the books
We can officially say we have another Halloween stuffed in the books! It was a whirlwind of a week celebrating because that is how we celebrate things, a full week at a time. Plus, it is the best way to end my favorite month and we got to do so with unseasonably warm weather in [...]
