As part of the Collective Bias@ Social Fabric® community, I was challenged to create natural looks for summer using Rimmel Makeup from WalMart. I was compensated for featuring this summer makeup trend. Ugh. A lot of my posts start with “Ugh” lately. I need to do something about that. But ever since I left my…
The Everyday
On Loving the Season You're In.
Sometimes I feel really in sync with my kids. It doesn’t happen every day, but sometimes it’s like they really, really know that I need something and they just come through for me in a big way. Like today. Elliette slept all night last night, and then she took a long nap this afternoon while…
Invisalign: The Clear Choice for Clear Braces
A weird thing happens during those tween years – you start to want what your friends have. But that goes beyond toys, clothes, CDs and such…I remember wanting glasses, braces, (my period, even!) just because my friends had them. I have a very distinct memory of going to the dentist office around 11 years old…
A short note.
Hi, all. I’m heading back to work today. Maternity leave is over. Sad, sad panda. Today is also Elliette’s 3-month birthday, but I just didn’t have the words last night. I’ll post soon. For now, there are decisions to be made.

Wordless Wednesday: Another Snow Day
What do you do when you’re snowed in again with a three-year-old? Whatever you can. Do you see it? His name is in there…somewhere!
Childhood Movie Obsession? Use It, Busy Mamas!
Before I had kids, I had some pretty specific ideas on how I would handle the television. We didn’t even have cable for quite a while, and I always promised myself that I’d be the mom that only allowed educational TV, and only in small doses. But now? Now I laugh at that mom.
Gift Giving: The Right Flowers for the Right Occasions
Wow. What a day. Yesterday, my day started off with a lost debit card and a flat tire, 30 miles from home. My lunch ended up sitting in my car for too long as I waited for help, so when I stopped to replace it, I treated myself to some flowers for my desk. And…

Every once in a while, I stop and think about how little I actually see my friends. With a busy career and building a family, life is just downright chaotic right now. I know, personal relationships are important, and they will become more of a priority before long, but right now…it makes me a little…
