I’ve always thought it was strange when people talk about babies and children by saying “oh, it’s such a great age…” or “that was the best age…” It makes me sad– as if Baby-Ko turning 24 one day won’t be as special as him turning 2.
But after I saw these photos that T-Ko took over the weekend, I kind of understood that “aww, enjoy this right now” thing that people do. I get it… Seeing these DOES make me want to stop and relish in every second of every minute RIGHT NOW.
I probably won’t be able to carry him when he’s 24, but I can still explore the world ...Read More
After spending stupid money on a pre-fixed shitty steak and service dinner many many moons ago, T-Ko and I decided (like everyone else), that V-day was for amateurs. We figured why not share our love over something we both really enjoyed and do it comfortably and casually… So for the last few years, V-Day has been all about Burgers and Beer. It’s been great.
Well this year, we decided we’d kick it up a notch and still get our burgers, but decided to “zjuszh” it up a bit and go for massages AND a movie. We had gift certificates to Burke Williams and a babysitter so it seemed like the perfect ...Read More
By now you’ve probably heard about the fact that Salma Hayek breastfed a starving baby in Sierra Leone. Hayak, who is still nursing her one-year-old daughter, says she isn’t the first in her family to offer her breast milk to a starving child– her great-grandmother did the same exact thing years ago in Mexico.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM7kKJ1NbQA]
As much as I complained and hated every second of nursing, (with the exception of the fact that I burned calories faster than Michael Phelps), I think I would do the exact same thing. It was a beautiful and selfless act.
But can I just be a 12 year old boy for one second and state the obvious: ...Read More
As most of you know, I’m a writer/producer for Momlogic.com. Recently, I’ve become a lot more active in our ML Community which is social networking site much like Facebook. We’re working really hard to create more activity and increase our membership, and in doing so, I’ve connected with some other mom bloggers. A lot of bloggers “interview” one another and Laura from metrogirl.typepad.com sent me some terrific questions:
1) If you didn’t have to work (didn’t need the income) what would you being doing all day and why?
Okay, this may sound obnoxious but if I didn’t “have” to work, it’s safe to say that I would be able to afford full time help, ...Read More
This weekend, I went to a charity event where there were quite a few celeb moms and their kids in attendance (I have told you how cool I am, haven’t I?) Anyway, maybe its something about being a celebrity that automatically makes everything they do look so effortless, but I couldn’t help but feel totally disheveled in their presence — As they were enjoying the festivities, smiling for photo opps, and whisking around their children from station to station looking totally flawless, I was praying that my bangs didn’t frizz and making sure I didn’t slip and fall on the ice (brought in just for the event), and that no ...Read More
The other day I posted 25 Random Facts after being inundated with tags on Facebook. Ever since then, I’ve been on a random fact rampage! Random memories of my life flood my brain like stream of consciousness… Well, fortunately for me, I have an outlet to share all this useless information. 🙂
When my son walks up to me and hugs me “just because,” I can kind of understand that “no one will ever be good enough for my son” mentality.
When I was about 9 years old, I became obsessed with the Pioneers (like the ones that travelled out west during the Gold Rush) and convinced my mom that we should do ...Read More
As we sat in traffic en route to Lucy’s 2nd Birthday party, I nearly bit my tongue off trying to stifle my urge to tell T-Ko to change lanes. He has a habit of staying in the right lane forever, and effing EVER, and it makes me insane in the membrane. Trying to avoid a fight, and trying to challenge myself to my own little game of “who can be quiet the longest,” I didn’t say anything. (Okay, well maybe I said one thing. But it was only because he really could have gone faster. It’s true that you can actually get a ticket for driving like my grandma. Seriously). ...Read More
Everyone has been sending around and tagging each other the 25 Random Fact list on Facebook. I have so many random facts– it was hard to narrow down. Maybe I’ll update soon with some more… In the meantime, here are my random facts….
**
Rules: Once you’ve been tagged you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you.
[To do this, go under “notes” under tabs (or the + sign) on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in ...Read More
We have been struggling a bit trying to get Baby-Ko to allow us to brush his teeth. A friend suggested I buy him a toothbrush with Elmo on it– maybe that would make him more interested in sticking a foreign object in to his mouth. Well sure enough, her trick worked and now my little man looooooooooves brushing his teeth.
Ironically, today at the dentist, the hygienist told me that if I don’t start brushing my teeth correctly, my gums would continue to recede. Apparently I’m in a “terrible recession.” (Um, aren’t we all???) She told me that I’m going to be very upset and that my receding gum line ...Read More
As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, Baby-Ko, who is now 16 months old, is ob-SESSED with lights. I don’t even know when or how it started but he loves to turn them off and on. I partially blame myself, T-Ko and all of his grandparents for enabling this somewhat annoying,
Rain-Man-esque fascination. We are obviously the ones lifting him up to turn these switches on and off, and if we had just said “no” months ago, we might not have to ask restaurant managers if we can play with their chandeliers when Baby-Ko starts to meltdown. (Okay, it’s not that bad, but trust me. I have come very close to asking ...Read More
