Just when I thought I was out of the ‘introducing solids’ stage, BAM! It comes back to slap me in the face. Thanks a lot LilMiss (even though I’m very proud of how you loved your peas). And just as I’m entering this stage the second time around, Target goes and sends me a bunch…

Join me: Say poo-poo to preschool.
PRESCHOOL. The word is everywhere I look or listen lately. It’s actually annoying me a lot. With the start of the new school year, friends, family and virtual strangers seem to be very concerned about the beginnings of LadyP’s education: “Are you starting her in preschool? Where are you sending her to preschool? Have you…
Push Presents: Rings, rules, being right.
Who likes sparkly things? (Duh.) Since I’ve ticked off pregnant women everywhere about my thoughts on push-presents (I think they’re ridiculous), I’m now making things right: Buying YOURSELF a push presents and/or ME-gifts is totally okay.

Celebrity mom, baby weight & bouncing back. Talk about a loaded topic. Let’s talk about it. Gaining weight, losing weight, how new mom celebrities make us feel bad. Correction: How they make SOME PEOPLE feel bad. As a lone duck I’ll shout that no woman should feel bad when seeing svelte new celebrity moms… opt…
Our secret to happy traveling with THREE babies.
Round em up and count em folks. One toddler (LadyP, 22 months). One baby (LilMiss, 5 months). And ANOTHER baby! WHAT?!? No, I did not pop out another one. For the purpose of this post, allow me to introduce our darling cousin GirlieBlue (4 months). My sister, parents and I ventured to the beach with…
