Graham and I were having a chat yesterday. We were discussing how plants grow and how they changed through the seasons. We talked about how the garden changes during the year, and then talked about the seeds we had just planted. I asked Graham if he wanted to do an experiment and see which… [Continue Reading]
Ask most moms…. After giving birth to a baby, what’s the next challenging thing? Many of us will say: Breastfeeding!

May 15, 2013 By Katie Leave a Comment
Spring. I love spring! Cleaning. I hate cleaning. Needless to say, Spring Cleaning and I have a love hate relationship. As soon as it gets warm enough to open the windows (a little bit longer than usual in these parts this year), I get the urge to start sprucing up the house. Clutter be-gone! Clean…

I must say, this week has been awesome. I still haven’t missed a day running, and am keeping ahead of schedule, which is SOOO unlike myself. I’m also just excited about running again. It’s been a long time since running has been fun. When I run 3-4 times a week, running is hard. I think…

Happy Mother’s Day…. two days too late. My bad. I didn’t forget about it. Really, I didn’t. I did, however, forget to write about it. It’s almost unforgiveable. I mean, I’m a mom, who writes for moms, and I forgot to wish all you fabulous mommas… The Best Mother’s Day in the Whole Wide World….

I consider myself to be a very clean and organized person. I keep a tidy house and shower frequently. But I do have one embarrassing thing to admit… my car is generally a hot mess. A filthy, trash-filled heap o’ moving metal. My awesome ride that I bought in my early 20′s is… 

Real Happy Meals: a Meal Plan Collection

I think I’ve introduced my last few posts by emphasizing how stressed out I am. It’s true. I’m totally, totally overwhelmed. Eat a half pint of Ben & Jerry’s overwhelmed. I didn’t even like the flavor. Like right-eye twitching uncontrollably overwhelmed. Yes, my eye twitches when I’m really stressed out. Nothing like an eye twitch to make…
