On Monday, we gave a long lecture about the importance of getting in the picture with your kids. Awkwardly, we didn’t talk about how to solve it. I’m guessing you have a camera on your phone. Tell your kids to hug you and laugh, use the camera on your phone to take a selfie. Problem […]
The other day I was sitting at my computer while my screen saver scrolled through my picture library. It was great – hilarious pictures of kids drooling, dancing, laughing. There was a great one of my then two-year old daughter wearing a skirt, leg warmers and bunny ears. No shirt and no smile. That ensemble […]
Life was quite different before children. We talked a bit about this in a recent post – the ability to drink a hot cup of coffee seems like distant memory. We’re reflecting again on things we experienced before we became moms.
Here’s our Top 5 Moments of B.C. (Before Children)
5: Napping
Before children, I napped. I somehow […]
Remember how cute and adorable your life was B.C. (BEFORE CHILDREN)?
You slept in on Saturdays until like, what, 9:45 a.m.?
You got a mani-pedi every Friday after work?
You enjoyed your piping hot coffee every Sunday morning curled up with your favorite book.
You had perky boobs.
You had two eyebrows.
Now, you’re a mom. It’s fantastic, right? “Being a […]
Families can really take some heat when it comes to going out to eat. Of course there are some parents that completely disregard their children, and some parents that give their children tablets at the moment of sitting. People will be quick to judge those (but we think, you do you).
However some parents come in with […]
The year was 2010. My first (and at the time only) baby was about four months old. My in-laws took us out to dinner, and that’s the last time I’ve taken my children out to a restaurant and left with an existing sense of sanity.
Since then, we’ve definitely thrown good money after bad trying to […]
At some point in your child’s life, they may ask you for a pet.
They might ask you for a cute puppy.
Or an adorable kitty.
Perhaps they may ask for a fish.
And one day, you may think to yourself…
As much as I don’t want the hassle of pet ownership,
I know that my family would truly benefit from […]
Making the decision to get a family pet can be very intense. Kids alone are a big pile of responsibilities. Why would anyone want to layer on top of all the insanity with a pet? Yet, here we are for better or worse with our furry friends. Read about how Bleeping Audrey started adding pets […]
Two years ago, we took our kids to the theater to see “Finding Dory”, the story of an adorable, wide-eyed, blue tang fish (played by Ellen DeGeneres) who suffers from memory loss every 10 seconds or so. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can probably catch it on Netflix.
After the movie, we were motivated […]
