So I’ve never really been a big Halloween person (except for the free candy part of the whole thing). But this year was… fabulous. Who knew that life could be so much fun alongside an oversized bug all day? For instance… It makes for interesting looks, laughs and conversations at the market… allowing you to…

What my baby made me smuggle outta the Mexican restaurant.
At first glance you will see an almost-full baby bottle in the photo below. Now look closer. What do you see in the background? Yes, that would be an empty margarita glass. Do the math. NO, I did NOT give the margarita to LadyP! Nor did she watch me as I shamelessly did it. I…
Baby’s 1st Birthday: When ladybugs & Hugh Jackman kicked my butt.
Last Saturday, September 24: LadyP’s long-awaited Ladybug Picnic (aka: my first baby’s 1st birthday party).

Why I was scared to be alone with Hubby, and why I now question if I have a soul.
Toronto: It was our first trip together sans baby. I was totally excited and totally weirded out. What the HELL were Hubby and I going to talk about for 4 days all by our lonesome on our happy-anniversary-to-us trip? I packed flirty dresses, high heels, lingerie… but would I know what to do with them?…
Fun for Mom: Get the hell outta your hood.
I’ve had a major attitude problem the past 4 months. Correction: My intended good attitude has not been as successful as I’d imagined. This woman needed some fun for mom… and baby. As of April, I’ve no longer been a ‘city girl’ and have been lamenting it ever since. Thanks to a silly little dream…
