I’ve decided to change things up a bit with Kate’s monthly posts. To date, I’ve been titling her posts with the month number that she just turned, but reflecting back on the previous month’s events. So when Kate turned 6 months old, for example, I posted a blog titled “Kate: 6 Months” showed her in
Considering today is the first day of fall (my birthday–woot!), I decided I should probably post this outfit while it still has some seasonal relevance. I’ve been trying to wear more skirts because I’m rather fond of how the fuller ones hide my belly! Top: Old NavySkirt: GapBelt: Came with the skirtShoes: Payless
Did you see me on Oprah’s Farewell Season Premiere today?!?! ‘Cuz I was totally on it. But before we get to that, let’s back it up. Jill and I arrived at Harpo Studios (Oprah’s home away from home–and I may or may not have set up my own little sleeping area there, too) at 10am.

If you’re reading this it probably means I died. Or at least my ego did. And my vanity. Maybe I ate them? That could certainly explain things. Let me back up a bit… I gave birth to my daughter Kate in January–my proud exclamation point at the end of a truly amazing and wonderful pregnancy.
After writing my recent “day in my life” post for The Domestic Wannabe, I decided to check out the other moms’ posts on her blog to compare notes and make sure I wasn’t screwing things up too badly with Kate–and that’s how I was introduced to Emily and her “Embrace the Camera” challenge.

Kate turned 7 months old earlier this week! Here’s a look back over the past month when Kate was 6 months old: The month kicked off with Kate’s 6 month pediatric appointment where we discovered that she is currently 28 ½” long (99.5th percentile!) and just shy of 16 lbs (38th percentile). Kate’s weight has
It’s been four months since I returned to work, and this post is something that still feels a little too soon for me to write. Too difficult. Too raw. I question if I have the right words to accurately capture what returning to work and being apart from my daughter felt like for me, and
