I recently went for my mammogram. Mamos can get a bad wrap, but from my perspective, they aren’t all that bad. Yes, they do flatten your boob in between two plastic things and a machine squeezes down on your breast while you’re told to ͞”hold your breath”. But, the whole thing happens kind of quick […]

Before I became a sleep consultant, I thought sleep training was some kind of secret club for moms. I could not understand why you would need to “train” your baby to get a full night of rest. Training was something I did before running a race or starting […]

This won’t be news to other moms reading this: I’m basically tired most of the time. But the beautiful truth also exists that the undeniable joy of motherhood (sometimes) overrides the exhaustion somehow.
If I’m being honest, part of that exhaustion is completely self-induced. I go to bed too […]

We recently celebrated our 10 Anniversary in Kennebunkport, Maine. You can read all about that fabulous trip here. Although we did miss our kids a little, we did really appreciate getting away (from them) for a while. We also came away with a couple of realizations:
5: We don’t do this enough.
Jeesh. Who couldn’t use a […]
This year my husband and I celebrated our 10-year wedding anniversary with a trip to Kennebunkport, Maine. Neither of us ever visited there, but we sure are glad we gave it a go. “How the heck did we end up there”, you ask?
What a great question. I like you already.
My husband and I both love […]
Science museums may be a necessary evil. The children get a chance to explore new ideas and concepts. They burn energy. And if you are able to get a membership to one, you can go to it nearly every day!
But they can be a drag. Especially if you are a hands-off kind of mom like […]
Like I said previously this week, I’ve been to a lot of science museums. Like, a lot. And I have had a chance to interact with some good ones and some not so great ones. I’ve mostly visited ones on the east coast, though I’m planning on branching out to some more mid-west ones later […]
Have you ever been exhausted by sheer boredom? That’s me at a science museum.
