Well, as you can tell from my last post, Sam has hit 15 months and had his necessary checkup. He was not the happiest of campers at the doctor. Normally he’s happy and charming until it’s time for shots. But at this appointment, he screamed at the stethoscope touching his skin and being laid down […]

Texas Health Resources MomBlog posted a few of my reflections from our recent evening at Carnegie Hall. I wanted to share it here, too. Enjoy! (Sorry I’ve been so lax on posting lately – it’s been a bit busy!)

You know that old saying, “kids say the darnedest things?” Well, it’s not just kids. Adults say some pretty funny things, too. The women in my family are known for our goofy phrases or slips of the tongue. Some that will last forever in our family are “But I’ll forget it’s a Snoopy watch by […]

Today was a GOOD Day. Today was the kind of good day that makes up for a whole bunch of crappy ones all at once. (This is not to say that I’ve had a bunch of crappy days in a row, quite the contrary, actually. But today made up for several crappy days in the […]

Well, remember how nervous I was two days before the race? It turns out, I was worried for nothing! No, wait, stop. That’s entirely untrue. I was worried – terrified was the word I believe I used (more than once) – for very valid reasons. I had slacked off in my training: motivation and time […]

Back in September, I got to do a guest blog entry for the Texas Health Moms blog. You’ll no doubt remember how excited I was to get to do this! (Yes, I know that’s a lot of links for the first two sentences. It’s my blog; I’ll link as much as I want to.) Guess […]
