Goals for 2017
Happy New Year! I have a confession. I hate making New Year’s resolutions. I think they’re kind of stupid. Most of the time when someone asks what my resolution is, I say, “To floss.” (That’s the truth, I do want to floss more.) But overall, I don’t hold my weight or faith in resolutions. Now,…

Adjusting to the Unexpected: Rails to Trails Half Marathon Recap
This post is later than I wanted, but school duties, sick kids, and family visits have a tendency to take priority over blog writing. Alas. The race was about a week ago, and as I sit here writing this, I’m fully recovered and ready to plan the next goal. I had my goals for Rails…

4 Months Post and Summer Recap.
Holy cow does time fly. Seriously! My baby is now four months and I’m staring at the unforgiving face of another school year. Why is it we wait the entire winter for summer, and then is gone in the blink of an eye? Not cool, time. Not cool. If your summer has been anything like…

Crock-pot Rotisserie Chicken
This is by far the easiest recipe ever. I don’t even know if it qualifies as a recipe. It’s just a chop, dump, and turn-on-the-pot kind of recipe. The hardest part is remembering to take the chicken out to thaw the night before. Really. The crock-pot is one of my favorite things. Could there be…

6 Weeks Post: Let’s Do This!
6 weeks, baby! Finally got to this point! Although in truth, I feel like the time flew by in a blur; funny how having a newborn makes time both slow down and speed up simultaneously. This will be my last weekly update. I will still be providing updates each month and posting regularly, but now…

4 Weeks Post: Getting Back to Me
As I mentioned in my last post, I started running. It’s been great. Not because I always feel great, but because it allows me to reconnect with the part of me that doesn’t have baby poo on her face (true story) or playdough under her finger nails. Some of my runs this past week have…

3 Weeks Post: How Much Longer Must I Wait?
You know how when you’re a kid and you’re waiting for Christmas or your birthday to roll around and it seems to take forever? The four weeks before Christmas may as well be four months or four years! To a child’s eyes, time never seems to pass; we simply can’t wait! That’s kind of how…

2 Weeks Post: Good Feelings Gone
What a difference a week makes. Seriously. I felt so good about myself physically, I felt good about Baby Girl (although she’s still a rockstar, I’m just tired), and I had energy and patience to keep up with my boys. Gah, hormones are a tricky, little widget, aren’t they? So deceiving. All the positive feelings…

The Finish Line
Well, Baby Girl arrived about 10 days ago. (Two days before my due date; I love that she was early!) She has settled in quite nicely and her older brothers are doting on her. (They give Mom and Dad plenty of grief, but they love their little sister.) I started this blog as a means…
