After a 2-week blogging hiatus and stay-cation with my family, I’ve come to a shocking conclusion that I never thought I’d be able to admit. EVER. DEEP BREATH. Stay-at-home mommyhood isn’t all that bad. It’s FUN. I’M HAVING FUN. Crap. Did I just say that out loud? I was the girl who always figured I’d have kids,…

Get free diapers by watching me apologize to Target? True. And fabulous.
What’s more fabulous than free diapers? Watching me apologize to Target for doubting their Up&Up brand of diapers. WATCH: I didn’t know I was such a diaper snoot until I was proven W.R.O.N.G. about my preconceived notions. These seem too thin. They’re not a brand name. There’s no ‘pee-pee indicator line’ that turns blue…
How to survive dinner out with 2 babies. By YOURSELF.
There was no procrastinating it any longer. If I kept putting it off, I’d have had to declare myself a chicken and a fraud and a fake for everything that I happen to believe a “Fab Mom” should be able to handle. No can do. (Frankly, I need to be a ‘fab mom’ because there…
The fab thing I forgot Memorial Day…
Flag? Check. A full grill? Check. A backyard packed with family and friends? Check. Being thankful for our troops? Check. So what did I forget? See if you can figure it out from the picture below: I FORGOT THE STARS AND STRIPES! Thanks to LadyP and LilMiss’ little playmate (far left) rightfully and royally decked…
Please get off my boob.
Ok, so my title here is probably a bit harsh, but I haven’t finished my coffee yet so I’m using that as an excuse for my brashness. Thanks to the now-infamous Time Magazine cover, recent debates and ongoing media “conversations” about attachment parenting that won’t go away (like on today’s Anderson) I’ve finally hit a breaking…
My big Mother’s Day fakeout.
My second Mother’s Day is down. Over. O.V.E.R. And I faked it goooooooood. But not after I had a sincerely wonderful time with my beautiful baby girls and loving Hubby… at a Hollywood brunch spot that is totally inappropriate for children. But that’s what I wanted. And on Mother’s Day, the Mom wins despite better…
Dear Mom: All the things you never did.
Ok Mom… Last Mother’s Day I blamed you for a lot of things. That was fun. This year I’m going to call you out even more and tell everyone about all the things you never did as a mom. Brace yourself. You never allowed me to think that I couldn’t handle anything – and I do…
