Trying something new here. Maybe I miss having a job? Maybe I miss purpose, routine, things like that. I know I miss a paycheck. But yes, staying home to raise my babies IS worth it. Anyway, in an effort to combat stasis, I will be blogging twice weekly and treating it like a job. Tuesdays […]

Had to do a shopping trip this afternoon with both girls, and for the first time, put Audrey in the seat area. She’ll be eight months old next week. Normally I wear her in a wrap, but she’s ready and eager to sit up (and crawl, and pull up, and get into everything, oh lord. […]
sorry about your sickness, mommy

Brian got a cold, then passed it to me, and of course now the girls seem to have it, too. Freya must have a very mild case so far. Poor baby Audrey actually has a little cough, which on a seven month old baby is both sad and worrying. Her spirits are otherwise good though, […]

Seven months old and working on crawling Freya is working at her desk Sweet sisters
Brian is off watching the Hobbit while I watch our girls. He’s been so anxious to see it, so I’m happy for him 🙂 I get my turn next week when I go out for sushi and cocktails and he stays home to entertain the little ones! Last night Freya really wanted to watch Star […]
Have to remember to wear earrings so my holes don’t close up. I wear studs because Audrey can’t grab them. There was a period in the 90s when for several years I did not wear earrings at all. I am not sure what the deal was. I guess I just didn’t own any. My jewelry […]

Our summer started yesterday, finally. Today I took the girls out by myself for the first time. We went to a local park for a play date with a couple of friends. We were there for over two hours. I wore Audrey some, nursed her some, let her sleep in her car seat, and let […]
Audrey is three weeks old today. She definitely looks and feels bigger. Freya had a very hard time making back her birth weight, and I know it was my fault for my nursing struggles. I can’t believe it took us seven weeks with her to start nursing laying down. I suffered through night feedings with […]

Random bullet point post: + Freya can now put on her shoes and take them off all by herself. Often she even put them on the correct feet! + She has also been sleeping in her own bed in her own room since April, and has made a pretty awesome transition from our bed to […]
Entering the final trimester, my belly seems to have really had a growth spurt this past week or two. It will soon eclipse my bust in circumference, and now I simply can’t zip up any of my warmer jackets, which kinda sucks as winter is still very much in season here. I refuse to buy […]
