Day 109: I'm joining the VLOG bandwagon

So this is my very first VLOG.  Try not to be too distracted by Abby’s cuteness to pay attention to me.  Oh, and after watching this, I realize I sound pretty upbeat and optimistic.  Don’t get me wrong, I do have happy moments, especially when Abby is around, but I’m still struggling with this working [...]

Post Script to Day 108: Abby is sick…Boo!

This morning, whilst I was at work, my husband decided to stay home with Abby b/c her cold was out of control.  It was actually kind of calming for me knowing he was taking care of her and she wasn’t starting daycare being sick. When I got home, we decided she should stay home another [...]

Day 108: McFatty Monday and mostly some other stuff

This week I lost a little over a pound.  I guess that means that I didn’t stress eat too much, though Friday’s dinner was pizza…more out of convenience of a new working mom.  I was super busy running around school all week, so I guess that is what my exercise was.  Really, I have no [...]

Day 107: Happy Award

Getting awards from fellow mommy bloggers makes me happy, so it was even awesomer that I got this Happy award from three pugs & a baby. And I think it’s great that I got this award this week since I’m been down and out with trying to figure out this whole working momma thing. How [...]

Day 106: Honest Scrap Award

 So about a week or so ago, I saw that I was awarded this honesty award from The Practical Mom Guide.  And then yesterday I got this same award from Postcards From Parenthood.  EDIT:  I just got this award from Tie a Little Ribbon as well! And more EDIT:  Babies and Bacon thinks I’m pretty [...]

Day 105: You Asked…I Answered (part 2)

This is a continuation of “You Asked…I Answered (part1)” 8.  If I could do any giveaway on any one thing, what would it be?  I would love to do a giveaway in which I could give plane tickets to some mommy bloggers to spend the weekend somewhere with me.  I know that might sound weird, [...]

I'm Featured!

So yeah, I’m featured over at New Parent.  Note, though, that it is not a picture of Abby with the article.  Just so you aren’t confused if you haven’t seen my cutie pictures of Abby lately.  Oh, and they have “Abby” as the author instead of “Abby’s Mommy.”  But I think it’s always cute to [...]

Day 104: First Thoughts as a Working Momma

Don’t forget to check out the Justice Juels giveaway. All weekend I was either sad or super grumpy.  I really felt bad for my husband and my mom (she flew in to take care of Abby the first week I’m back to work).  I just dumped on them for the smallest things that really shouldn’t [...]

Day 103: My First Wordless Wednesday

Day 102: Justice Juels Giveaway

CLOSED And the winner is…   ******************************************************************* About a month ago I got an email from Chelsea at Justice Juels. She explained to me about her jewelry business and how she started it to send a bunch of her profits to help stop child trafficking. And as a new mom, my heart just sank to [...]
