And if I may be bossy, you’d better love you, too. I mean really, truly, LOVE. None of this fake-like “I think I’m doing an okay job” stuff will do for us moms…. oh no. No no no. Because if the Mom of the house doesn’t figure out a way to LOVE herself and realize…

FACETIME. Just stay in the car. {VIDEO}
We’ve all been there… driving around town, running errands, getting things done while our babies sleep in their carseats. Fab. But what’s not so fab? When your baby doesn’t transfer from carseat to crib very nicely (like my 11 month old LilMiss). Two year old LadyP is cool with the whole pick-me-up-and-move-me thing, but for…
FAMOUS. Amber Rose bumpin’ the Grammys. Now I’m a fan.
Pregnant model/actress/recording-artist Amber Rose sure knows how to show everyone up. (To be perfectly blunt, I’m still trying to pinpoint some of her work.) But by now, everyone who cared about the Grammys red carpet watched how Rose fabulously made her way down the arrivals line sporting her big I’m-having-the-baby-in-a-few-weeks bump in a (reported) Donna…
Birthday for Mom Wrap-Up! Presents vs Presence.
Last weekend was a big birthday for me. It’s a big birthday for mom! they all shouted. Not THE big-birthday, but a big one. (No, I’m not going to tell you. You can guess. Be careful, my fab friends.) What do you want for your birthday? my husband asked me a few weeks ago. ??????…
FIND! Designer Daniela Corte gives us all a leg up.
FAB FIND ALERT: Would leggings be around if there were no mothers? I dunno. What I do know is that, for better or worse, I’m pulling on leggings more and more. They just WORK. For playing on the ground with kids or for playing with adults in a pair of high-heels. I’m talking, like, every day. So…
FAIL. A lesson to trust yourself like a real fab mom.
Trust yourself. Trust your actions. Trust your intentions. Even if you can’t remember WHY you tried to hide the innocent little Jingle Doggy (leftover from Christmas) waaaaaay up in your daughters’ closet so they would never find him again until next year. “Mommy! Jingle Doggy! Get Jingle Doggy!” LadyP desperately cried and pointed up into…
FILOSOPHY. What I learned from babysitting 5 kids… even though I flopped.
Babysit five kids? Willingly? Sure! Why not. (Ok fine, 2 of the kids I babysat were actually mine.) I did it for the sake of helping out some of my favorite cousins. I did it for the challenge. I did it so the babysitter-gods take extra notice and never leave me without a sitter when I need one….
