Since it is de riguer to do a retrospective post I could hardly swim against the current (I don’t swim with the current either…I prefer the beach) so here’s my recap.
The year of 2010 was one of huge changes for me. First we moved from our home near Duluth, MN to a town near […]
It’s no secret that I’ve been struggling with depression for over a year. After the birth of my amazing little boy it got a whole lot worse. With the addition of post-partum it has been a new & often horrible experience. I recognized fairly quickly that I was going to need help dealing with the […]
Continue Reading → I can’t believe that Magnus will be 4 months old before this month is out. He has grown a lot & we have a lot of fun. He coos & chatters to me when we are doing stuff around the house. He has the best smile! I’ve also gotten some real, honest-to-mergatroid, laughs over the […]
Continue Reading → I’m so tired. I don’t feel like I’m really functioning lately…more like going through the motions. It is terribly frustrating as Magnus is starting to really sleep at night with few wake-up times. Usually he sleeps 4-6 hours the first time he goes down. So wonderful for both of us as he still isn’t a […]
Continue Reading → Magnus is two months old. He’s sleeping next to me on his little lounger & I can hardly believe how big he is getting. He’s got chubby little cheeks & a double chin (so cute on an infant…so NOT cute on his mom). Looking at him I can see the years flying by already…all the […]

Continue Reading → When we last saw our heroine she was lying in an extremely hard birthing bed on day 3 of being induced for the health of both Baby & momma. As we resume the doctor has decided to break the water in hopes of speeding up the labor & subsequent delivery. It was apparent that I […]
Continue Reading → Every small town in this area (in fact in the country probably) has some type of summer weekend fling. They celebrate the town’s heritage etc. Here we have “Wheels & Squeals”…a combination car show & rib fest weekend. There are quite a few events along with food, requisite beer garden & live music. After reading […]
Continue Reading → I know you’re not surprised to see that I’ve got Baby on the brain. Seriously I’ve got a month left until the little one is due & nothing else to focus on. There is SO much that needs to be done around the house & yet here I sit on the couch watching TV. Now […]
Continue Reading → While I’m assuming anybody who knows me knows that I am pregnant I haven’t really talked much about being pregnant. Partly because life (as you well know) has been a crazy disaster of insanity but also because I don’t want to bore ya’ll with the minutiae of the pregnancy. I figure if you call yourself […]
