There's nobody who can sneeze with such force and volume as my husband, Ryan. He's allergic to... well, everything, I think. Pollens, dust, dust mites, animals, housework, you name it, and it probably makes him sneeze. And our lucky little son Mason has seemingly inherited this. Mason has both food … [Read more...]

Size Doesn’t Matter…Or Guilt Either
I had Will in July of 2008. He spent a week in the NICU because he was just a little 5 pounder, or as my sister fittingly announced, 20 quarter-pounders.

I should be sleeping
OK so I'm a month in on baby #2 and I am utterly exhausted. Breastfeeding is a workout and I'm only getting two and a half hours of solid sleep at a time. Clearly the Hubs and I didn't think this through (I'm joking of course!). Fortunately I'm taking it easy and not beating myself up like I did the … [Read more...]
Go East Young Man
My wife and I take off for Cape Breton tomorrow. We are very excited but also a little anxious; it’s a long, long drive. Not sure if you've ever driven out east but Cape Breton is about a 21 hour drive. More like 23 with us, the two kids and my bladder tend to slow us down a bit. This will be our … [Read more...]
