Pregnancy. I seem to like it better on other people. The first time I was pregnant, I was in a state of lackluster shock that didn’t really turn to anticipation until the very end, where I made my hubby bust out his camera in our apartment during sunset because I realized I didn’t take any…

FIND! LuLu In LA LA Land. (middle readers)
Confession: As a kid, I never really *loved* to read. (It pains me to admit it.) I always wanted to dance, sing, be in a play or do something else creative instead. (I do love to read now though… funny how we all grow up in different ways.) In school, reading was…. work. Reading was……
FIND! On My Way to Bed, by Sarah Maizes.
I was officially EXHAUSTED from my toddlers whining about not wanting to go to bed. I’d had it up to here. But now I just laugh at it… Why my sudden sense of humor? Because author (and friendly blogger/writer/humorist/woman-and-mom-of-3-extroirdinaire) Sarah Maizes has done it again. Her most recent children’s book, On My Way to Bed, is…
Mom Style: The uniform reinvented (but just as comfy).
What’s your mom style? My recent assignment for Hallmark Channel’s “Home & Family”: Glam-up, trend-up and one-up the mom-uniform.

My oldest enjoys a weekly dance class… as well as two mornings a week at preschool. We have never-ending artwork (from…
FIND! Brighter.com: Tips for taking your toddler to the dentist.
I’m officially in dentist-mode at my house. Almost 3 years old, LadyP is at the official Dentist Age. I guess I’ve always have been in the mode though (given that my dad and uncle are both dentists). Not having any cavities growing up (to this day, baby!) was always almost as important as keeping our…
FIND! weeSpring: Social shopping for new & expecting parents.
A real fab mom figures out what resource she wishes she had when she was pregnant, invents it, and then makes it available for up-and-coming new moms. I met one of these Real Fab Moms this week (thanks to the equally fabulous friends Sarah & Yvonne of MomsLA). Allyson Downey is a cool and charismatic East Coast…
