This morning I went to the Team in Training group run in downtown Cleveland, and it was COLD. I ran 50 minutes yesterday (in the ice and snow) and clocked in just under 5 miles. Today we ran 50 minutes also, but I clocked in just under 6 miles in the same amount of time [...]

Hard to believe, but this is the first time since this post that we have had a significant amount of snow fall (at least enough to play in). Kyle bundled Kade up and the two of them took off to conquer the sledding hill by our house (Mama and Liv stayed home - it was [...]

I am thankful that Liv SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT! We are talking 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I have not slept for 7 hours straight in over 6 months. Kade woke us up a little before 7 and I looked at the clock in awe because I realized that I hadn’t fed Liv since I [...]

Liv has been crying all day today. She’s teething. It has to be her teeth because I have exhausted all other possibilities, however, I do not feel or see any activity beneath her gums, which leads me to believe that this uncharacteristic behavior could continue for weeks (did I just say weeks, oh please, don’t [...]

I propped my eyelids open with toothpicks just so I could write this post. This weekend was wonderful, busy and above all - tiring. Liv chose to go on a binge and eat every 2 hours…great for her…not so great for Mama. She also decided to multiply her pooping by two as well…great for the [...]

I ordered some clearance sweatpants from the woman with the secret and they sent their swimsuit catalog along with the order, which really does wonders for one’s body image and overall outlook on life - given we have a good 3 months of winter left. After dinner, I was flipping through it, trying not to [...]

I’m thankful that the countless hours I have spent reading to Kade, saying the alphabet, counting and simply talking about the world around us have accomplished something. Kade is such an intelligent little boy, and he has suddenly begun to actively exhibit all that he has learned so far. It is so gratifying to watch [...]

I decided to join the Crazy Hip Blog Mama’s carnival for the first time. This week the post is “5 things you might not know about me.” So here they are:
1. My house is always clean, but my car is a disaster area. It hasn’t been washed since before Liv was born, and the dust [...]

This week is International Blog Delurking Week, which means we have to stop silently reading and start commenting so the owners of the blogs we read on a daily basis will realize their words are actually reaching an audience and will continue writing. I am guilty of not commenting myself. I read two “mommy” blogs [...]

I made this soup tonight and it is so easy and so good. Kade literally gobbled it up (once we got him to taste it). Honestly, you have to try it. Oh, and did I mention that it’s low-fat - bonus.
