Who knew that “Sofia the First” would be our first? Ah. Our first movie. On behalf of the Academy of New-Moms Everywhere (totally made that up), I’d like to thank the fabulous Disney Junior. Not only have they hit it out of the park with their adorable new animated musical tale “Sofia the First: Once Upon…

Perspective: A Mom & Maury Povich. (Who knew?)
Guess what girls? Mommy’s gonna be on one of the most-watched television shows in the country! Crickets. Blank stares. General ignoring. I recently appeared as a mom-correspondent to expose nasty, hidden germs in kid-friendly places for The Maury Show’s ‘Hidden Dangers Caught on Tape’ special, but who cares about the drama of hidden germs when…
Halloween Tricks? Got ’em.

I realize and…
Damn it Kourtney. You made me remember.
So I literally just finished watching the season finale of Keeping Up with the Kardashians and am wiping away the tears as I write this. Damn it Kourtney. Yeah, I know your sweet little girl is a few months old now and the events in this latest episode are old news (you giving birth to…
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…
