  Dear Baby,   You are still with me. I guess with my overwhelming bad luck I feel like something would have happened by now and I would have to not only deal with the emotions of "Oh my God, I'm pregnant!" but "Oh my God, I lost the baby I've suddenly b...

• 6 Weeks, 3 Days

  January 25, 2013

  Dear baby, You a surprise and I don't even know how to describe my feelings as I write this to you. I took a test this past week thinking that there was no possible way that I could be pregnant. Daddy and I spend more time chasing your sisters than we do with each other a...

• A little of everything and a baby pic

  February 2, 2012

  It's amazing how stressed I can feel about work without even being there. I go back on February 13th. I'm actually incredibly lucky that I've been home with Abby as long as I have. Most people go back after 6 weeks. I have had more than that with her--especially because Christmas vacation fell ar...

• Weight Watchers…

  January 30, 2012

  When it was taking awhile (going on about six months) to try to get pregnant with Abby, I joined weight watchers. I was looking for any answer I could find to help out in getting pregnant. I hated being obsessive about trying to conceive, but I really was. I took my temperature daily, p...

• A trip to the beach…pictures

  January 29, 2012

  Yesterday seemed like a perfect day for a trip to the beach. I usually don't gravitate towards it, especially with two kids to take as well. It falls on me to get them ready (for the most part) and to think of everything they might need. It was easier with just Alex and I got it…

• Abigail Rose…and a picture

  January 25, 2012

  Abigail Rose was born December 3--a whole month and week early. I started having contractions two days before she was born. Three trips to the ER, countless numbers of shots trying to stop the contractions and finally being told to go on bedrest couldn't stop her early arrival. By the time the do...

• Again?

  January 7, 2011

    Here we go again. I felt crappy for the last few months. I’m not sure why. Maybe allergy problems, unhappiness stemming from work, the result of not taking care of myself (eating well and such). I have since made a change. I am eating better. The Christmas break from work did wonders...

• Stowe, Vermont.

  January 2, 2011

  Yesterday Rich and I were watching a preview of the new HGTV dream home give away. I fell in love with it. Not so much with the house, although it was okay. I fell in love with the area. Granted, what they showed of the area on tv was probably the "best" that the area had to&h...

• Swedish Chefs lack Confidence

  January 1, 2011

  Alex left for a couple of hours today to see her grandparents and I really missed her. I couldn't get enough hugs when she got back. At times, her incessent need for attention drives me crazy. Other times, I miss her so much. I wonder, how will I deal when she is a teenager with "better...
