Post Script to Day 224: Goodbye

I have to say goodbye to you…for some personal reasons. That is all. EDIT:  I am fine.  My family is fine. I just cannot blog anymore.

Day 224: I need some help.

Well I feel I always need help (<–insert sarcastic tone…I’m never sure if my sarcasm comes across on this bloggy), but really this is Abigail help. As Abby turned 9 months and is getting closer and closer to being one (ZOMG), I’m thinking about birthday parties.  I didn’t realize it was time to figure this [...]

Day 223: Who needs toys?

If I knew how much Abigail would be into everything except her toys, I could have saved myself a lot of money.  This is especially true since she has gotten really good about pulling herself up.  Her Uncle got her one of those pushing toys for such an occasion…you know where she can walk down [...]

Day 222: Don’t Forget to Breathe-Part II

A little over eight and a half years ago, my grandfather passed away from Cancer.  I was a senior at NYU.  We joked how he was kind enough to pass over winter break so I wouldn’t have to leave school.  About a week after his passing, I went back to school. Numb. I started a [...]

Day 221: A look into my past…pregnancy that is

I’ve often thought about how I wished I started blogging while pregnant.  I mean pregnancy has its ups and downs…it has its comedic moments and its sorrows…it has its joys and disappointments…well I could keep going on and on.  But really, pregnancy makes for some good blog fodder.  So I’ve decided to share a story [...]

Day 220: Back to School Blog Style…Books and Websites For You and Your Child

Welcome back to the Back to School Blog Style Series.  If you weren’t here last week, click on the “Back to School” tab up top and read all about it, and you will also find links to last week’s topic, “Tips for Success.” Before I get down to business, I want to remind you about [...]

Day 219: I’m taking a sabbatical.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed or not, but for the past few Sunday’s, you have seen this image show up: Well it’s because I’m getting a bit overwhelmed with this whole 365days thing.  So I’ve decided from this day forward, that Sunday will be for sabbatical.  Perhaps I will post a picture.  Perhaps you [...]

Day 218: What would you call this?

The other morning afternoon when I was taking a shower just after putting Abigail down for a nap, strange thoughts went through my head.  You know sometimes how something echoes a certain way and sounds like something else?  Well if you don’t, it happens to me often.  (No I’m not crazy.  I just easily freak [...]

Day 217: I’m looking for some lost time.

About a month ago, I noticed that some of the mommy bloggers I follow began talking about planning for their kids’  first birthday parties.  My reaction:  ZOMG!  How did this happen?  Then I realized that Abigail was soon to be 9 months old…that’s 3/4th of a year.  And well, as Wednesday came and went, Abby [...]

Day 216: The one where Abby gives Momma a break

Yesterday afternoon I was starting to think that we were on our way to day three with no afternoon nap.  I started freaking that at the age of 9 months, Abigail decided she no longer needed it.  She was super fussy in the afternoon too.  I really needed her to take a nap.  I needed [...]
